Montreal, QC 2007 — North is adding the P95 Series to its extensive line of filtration facepieces. The 8140P95 is an excellent respirator for dusty applications that contain oily base particulates, such as would be found in; tool rooms, machine shops, grinding applications, or sweeping and sanding in hot environments. It features; a full flange seal cushion for a better fit/protection, an exhalation valve for easier breathing, a Latex-free strap for less irritation and a curved nose clip for a snug fit around the nose area.

The 8145P95 is ideal for particulate protection when gas or vapour is also present (below the PEL* only). It offers protection against organic vapour, acid gas and Ozone. It is a good choice of respiratory protection for dusty environments and welding applications. It also has a full flange seal and a curved nosepiece like the 8140P95. In addition, it also has a blue exhalation valve which refers to HF** protection in a smelter. It has OV, AG and Ozone protection for nuisance levels below the PEL and it features an adjustable strap so the worker gets a perfect fit.
