General features:
The FA-3 half mask with changeable twin filters forms a respiratory protective equipment. The flexible face piece made from neoprene, which softly fit to the wearer's face without irritating the skin. The head and neck straps are flexible and easily adjustable. The simply assembled inhalation valves ensure very low breathing resistance, which made the physical work easier.

Application of the haf mask
The mask is used only according to the Instructions and only with Respirator made twin filters. The half mask - assembled with the appropriately selected twin filters - will effectively protect the user from airborne particles, bacteria, poisonous gases and vapours.
Limitations of use:
The half mask must not be used:
- when the oxygen content in the ambient air is less than 17%, which is often the case in closed spaces such as wells, tunnels, cisterns, etc.
- when the type and concentration of the contaminant is unknown.
- when the concentration of the contaminant is bigger than 1000 ppm (0,1 v%), or the quotient of the ambient concentration of the contaminant and the nominal protection factor of the half mask exceeds the officially permitted limit; whatever is the smaller value.
- when there is strong danger of explosion or fire.
- only twin-filters to be used! (produced by Respirator Company).
