Honeywell 5500 Series Half Face Respirator

Description

The North half face respirator, also known as the Honeywell North 5500 Series Half Mask Respirator, is a widely recognized and highly regarded respiratory protection device. It is designed to provide respiratory protection against various airborne contaminants in the workplace, offering comfort, durability, and reliable performance.

The North half face respirator features a lightweight and low-profile design, allowing for a comfortable fit and ease of use. The respirator is typically made of a durable elastomeric material, such as silicone or thermoplastic elastomer, which provides flexibility, longevity, and a secure seal against the wearer’s face.

The respirator incorporates a dual-cartridge system, with one cartridge on each side of the face. These cartridges are designed to hold our Honeywell Organic Vapor Cartridge/Filter, Honeywell N95 Particulate screen and Plastic Cover. The cartridges are typically attached to the respirator via a threaded connection, ensuring a secure fit and easy filter replacement.

The respirator has adjustable straps or a head harness, enabling the wearer to achieve a customized and comfortable fit. It may also have a nose cup or a molded nose bridge that enhances the seal and reduces fogging of safety glasses.

One of the notable features of the North half face respirator is its wide field of vision. The design minimizes the interference with the wearer’s peripheral vision, allowing for excellent visibility and spatial awareness while working.

It is essential to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and instructions for proper usage, maintenance, and filter or cartridge replacement. Regular inspections and maintenance, such as cleaning and storage in a clean and dry environment, are crucial to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the respirator.
