Can you use a dust mask with p100 filters?
Can you use a dust mask with p100 filters?
Pls
yeah
yes. p100 or p3 filters are best.
thats not a dust mask. idiot.
How often do you need to change them?
Thank God. The n95's don't get here till April fucking 7th, if they come at all
Yes p3 or p100.
You can use them for a very long time. Even years.
Someone on b said it was a dust mask and called me an idiot too.
once every year if you don't work at an hospital
Checked.
Don't touch the filters when cleaning the mask if you can.
Dust masks are better than N95 masks
They are gonna last practically forever because we aren't huffing fumes of any sort. Store them in a ziploc.
Nice
the mask is meaningless, if it has a tight fit it'll work, what counts are the filters
you have a 3M, it's same one i'm using, my dad is using a 7500 one with chemical cartidges to intubate patients
so far so good
When should I start wearing mine out and about?
Why ziploc? Is it bad to store them hanging on a wall?
n95 means 95% effective against particulates or someshit. Better than nothing.
you want p3 or p100 though.
>Go to store
>No n95s
>Go online
>N95s are $50 each
>Go to hardware store
>P100s on shelf, $30/each
Normies are idiots
>When should I start wearing mine out and about?
Yesterday
I've been going out only with a full face Gas military mask since a few weeks
Don't forget to wear eye goggles too
Pretty kino, ngl. N H
>n95 means 95% effective against particulates or someshit. Better than nothing.
It means 95% effective at filtering things that are just a few microns. A droplet of condensed breath carrying the virus is way bigger and n95 will filter out 100% of them.
Please wear eye goggles too
Ones without ventilation or indirect ventilation
The virus enters the eyes
Shut up dude. Don't tell normies about it.
he's wearing goggles and that facial cover, plus one jumpsuit and an apron on top
if even so he gets infected, this shit is viral anthrax
Yes. I do
Chemical filter like your dad uses is overkill.
A P3 particules filter is enough
But yeah goggles are a must
>p100
Means it'll catch 99.9% of particles down to a certain size
But corona is smaller than those filters will catch.
And since the infected will be coughing trillions of virus particles onto you even if those filters could catch them billions would still get through.
The virus hangs on droplets which are big enough to not pass through the filters.
>filters dont expire
okay retard
When it becomes difficult to breathe or whatever the packaging says on it.
you can go to 3M dot com and reference the filter. From experience they're usually around 10 hrs, but can last much longer.
Also never store your filters with your respirator, ever. Keep your respirator sealed in a bag, but the filters should never be stored with it... ever.
Filters are designed to prevent incoming contaminants from entering the respirator, but those same contaminants can leave the filters the same way they came in
Anyone know how often you have to change filters in masks?
It is you fucktard
won't have air flow through them or absorb anything
bump. i got two pairs of these and have a 7000 series mask otw.
ive heard when it becomes difficult to breath, but how long would that take with these badboys in a non toxic environment?
fuck forgot pic
>>filters dont expire
>okay retard
The activated carbon isn't getting loaded when no air or chemicals are passing through it. They are gonna last a long time when you don't wear them around chemicals in the air whether you believe it or not. It's like a reverse osmosis filter lasts 5x longer than what the packaging says when you are filtering tap water because it isn't completely full of minerals and shit.
It will serve the purpose, but unwieldy and unnecessary. Like using a Hummer to do Uber. Yeah, you could do it, but why if you had literally any other option?
N95 is fine.
Like he said it will be difficult to pull through them. But the fact they aren't absorbing particles in the air will make them last a long time just like I fucking said you retard. How the fuck do we know how long we don't know if you live in the city or the country.
alright nigger take it easy
the ones with charcoal to absorb VOCs are better.
yes p100 filters have the same protection rating as P3 rated filters that you find in NBC filters, That's a good setup if you are shopping in crowded public areas;
it can be used as a dust mask but it's a half face mask.
they attract particles from the air around so it's best to keep in them in an airtight bag.
Some droplets will start small and big ones will shrink by evaporation.
And what happens if a filter catches a big drop? Filter absorbs the water and the viruses can go through.
Do p3 filters work?
the important thing is that your air coming into your airways is filtered and that you don't get any fluids in your eyes. The rest is just washing your hands and disinfecting with bleach and lye. A facemask with an airtight seal is mandatory if you are going shopping in a crowded area right now.
Cuz theres a couple at work with two fresh packs of filters
yes, they are found in NBC filters usually in the front and back of a canister. Scott makes P3 filters designed for industrial use that screw onto 40mm nato. Scott pro2000. P3/P100 is the same rating of protection.
yeah i'm not risking going out but if i do it will be full face respirator and gloves
I know I said that
gloves are placebo
Yes goy. No filter is better for you.
p3/p100 is better than n95 bro
not if they make you more mindful of everything you touch.
another thing if you can get it is a UVC bulb to disinfect the mask without using liquids that compromise the filters. but don't look at it as you can damage your eyes easily
yay i did something right for once
Technically it is, but most people (even in construction where the shit is usually used) dust mask refers to those crappy paper cups
Half mask is fine as long as you have airtight goggles to go with (seems you do). P100 filters are technically overkill but I'm using the same ones
i work with sodium nitrate and other toxic material. they wont help. also the mask needs to be fitted you moron. using the mask can also cause harm if you dont get your lungs checked out.
tbf you'd only be an idiot if you bought at actual dust mask
see:
He's technically correct, but most industry refers to dust mask as those shitty paper cups that you use for 1 day. Your mask is fine as long as you keep using airtight goggles. P100 is (according to current info) overkill but in this situation I prefer going overkill
idiot
It's best to get the hard shelled filters like this because you can wipe down the hard exterior with alcohol or whatever.
Oh shit my post already went through
They won't go through. You don't know what you're blabbering about. They wouldn't even go through a surgical mask
Fuck off chang
user when in doubt, wear same shit Italy/chink doctors used
went out like this today to get groceries
boomers and millenials staring at me, laughing, avoiding the aidles im in.
i will have the last laugh
nice honeywell m8.
Dude just stare at them, if they continue to laugh tell them you are caring for your mother. Some reason bringing up mommy puts perspective in nigger cattle world
that you will
i have organic vapor filters from almost 20 years ago that work fine
>confederate flag
Hey, aren't you that faggot who about 4 days ago was REEEEing in all the /cvg/ threads about how this was a nothingburger? LMAO! It IS you! You fucking absolute FAGGOT LOOK AT YOU LMAO!!!! HOW'S THAT NOTHINGBURGER TASTE?
if anyone stares at me i'll just cough
not me leafbro
i have always maintained this was a something sandwich. started prepping in january
Typically 40 hours of constant use in a contaminated area or 30 days if you do not ziplock them, as another user said once it's hard to breath in/out it's just about time to change
I was in the store buying ammo. Same shit. People chuckling at me. Fucking dumb roasties and old men. I kept my mouth shut though. I almost blurted out that Coronachan can move 4 meters and sits in the air for 30 minutes. I had my handgun open carry too. People don't realize the danger this thing poses.
as someone that wears a full tyvek and respirator for 12 hours a day at work this thread has me dying. have fun passing out when it starts to get hot outside.
Already trained my mind to not touch and keep wipes in my pocket to wipe off hands after leaving the building before I get in car
>4 meters
>30 minute air suspension
what is your source on that?
based
wish I could have a gun but only have my dad's old bundeswehr knife. It will work though when shtf
Toaster steve?
