Face fit testing

Face fit testing is a test in which to see how well a respirator fits a person’s face. In any work place if you issue clothes you have to issue the right size. However, respirators were commonly believed to be one size fits all but that’s not the case as more people have died from respiratory hazards in the work place. For more information on face fit testing visit our site at: http://www.firesafeinternational.co.uk/page/face_fit_testing

Fire Risk Assessment

There are two commonly used methods of confirming mask fit:

Qualitative - This is perhaps the most common face fit tesing method and is best understood as assessing the "Quality" of the fit. A strong tasting substance is used as a test agent and the basic principal is that if the person wearing the mask is unable to taste the agent, then the mask fits.

Quantitative - This face fit testing technique involves measuring the fit of a mask and "Quantifying" the result. It involves the use of computerised test equipment which measures mask leakage. There are a few types of test equipment available but by far the most common used is the TSI Portacount machine. This is able to measure small naturally occurring particles (pollen, sand, smoke, fly ash, etc).
