Use of the FFP3 mask

图片
  The outer layer of the FFP3 category mask tends to accumulate a lot of dust and bacteria from the outside air, while the inner layer blocks exhaled bacteria and saliva, so the two sides should not be used interchangeably, otherwise the dirt contaminated by the outer layer will be inhaled when directly pressed against the face, and become a source of infection. When the mask is not worn, it should be folded into a clean envelope with the side that fits closely to the nose and mouth folded inward. If the FFP3 mask gets wet from exhaled hot air or saliva, its effectiveness as a barrier to germs is greatly reduced. Therefore, it is always a good idea to have a few masks on hand for replacement.

Do ordinary people wear FFP2 or FFP3?

图片
  I'd like to urge everyone to save as much of these medical-grade masks as possible for the frontline medics, who are the ones who need them the most! Don't just go for a high level of protection, a regular medical mask will suffice for most people who are healthy and not in an infected area. Viruses are still rampant, and anti-particulate respirators, also known as dust masks, are essential to meet the demand for daily protection, whether they are medical surgical masks or FFP2 masks to isolate viruses in everyday life. But no mask is a cure-all, and there is no need to do anything that is not necessary, and the best protection for yourself and your family is to go out less and gather less, wash your hands frequently and ventilate more.

FFP2 mask instructions for use

图片
Inspect the mask before each use to ensure that it is in good working order. Inspect all parts of the mask, including the two straps, nose clip and retaining pins, and discard the mask immediately if it is damaged or missing parts. Wear the  FFP 2 mask correctly and check the fit of the mask to your face after wearing it . Dispose of the mask and replace it with a new one when it becomes damaged or when the breathing resistance is excessive. Source link: https://www.unisourcesgroup.com/news/68.html

Three levels of FFP indicators

图片
Masks are primarily used to protect employees from serious work-related injuries or illnesses caused by exposure to chemicals, radiation, electrical equipment, human equipment, mechanical devices or in some hazardous workplaces. The PPE is divided into 3 levels (95L/min test flow rate, dusting with DOP oil). FFP1: Minimum Filtration Effect" 80% FFP2: Minimum Filtration Effect" 94% FFP3: Minimum Filtration Effect" 97% CE certification, which provides uniform technical specifications and simplifies trade procedures for products from all countries trading in the European market. https://www.unisourcesgroup.com/news/66.html

A note on FFP masks

图片
The main function of both masks is the middle layer of meltblown cloth. This layer is made up of polypropylene fibres with a diameter of 0.5 to 1 micron. FFP is the European standard. FFP2 stands for more than 94% for 0.3 micron particles, FFP3 for 97% .   The FFP1 mask requires a minimum of 80% filtration efficiency for both oily and non-oily particles, which is slightly lower and not suitable for use in the current epidemic situation.

Is the FFP2 mask disposable?

  FFP2 masks, one of the European standard EN149:2001 for masks, are designed to trap harmful aerosols, including dust, fumes, mist droplets, poisonous gases and vapours, through the filter media and block them from being inhaled.FFP2 minimum filtering effect >94%.   We generally see FFP2 category masks, which are disposable. There are also half and full face masks, both of which can be reused multiple times by replacing the cartridge. Source: https://www.unisourcesgroup.com/news/63.html

Precautions for wearing a FFP3 mask

图片
  For better protection, try to tighten the elastic band of the mask when wearing it and compress the aluminum tabs on either side of the nose to reduce leakage around it, and it's best to breathe slowly. The time of wearing should be appropriate. Medical non-woven masks can be used for 6-8 hours and should be replaced in the following cases: difficulty in breathing, torn or destroyed masks. Discarded masks should not be thrown away freely, otherwise it will cause secondary pollution. Used masks in the general environment should be put in the garbage, and used masks that pollute the environment should be disposed of according to hazardous waste.

FFP2 mask market conditions

图片
FFP2 masks, one of the European standard EN149:2001 for masks, are designed to trap harmful aerosols, including dust, fumes, mist droplets, poisonous gases and vapours, through the filter media and block them from being inhaled.   For FFP2 masks, doctors reminded the public to pay attention: "Theoretically, the more airtight the mask's protective material is, the better it is at blocking particles. On the other hand, the more confined the mask, the more difficult it is to breathe, especially for patients with cardiovascular disease, poor wear may also lead to dizziness and breathing difficulties due to lack of oxygen, the choice to wear more carefully.

FFP2 rated masks

图片
National standards for dust masks vary from country to country, and comparisons are focused on each. In the FFP2 standard, the mask traps dust at a rate equal to or greater than 94%, which is one percentage point less than the N95 trap rate, however, the air flow rate per minute through the test is different, 95 liters per minute for the European standard and 85 liters per minute for the American standard. At the same time, a high or low impedance value represents the degree to which the mask impedes respiration when used, with higher values impeding respiration and the comfort level of the two being different.

What to do when the FFP2 mask is removed

图片
FFP2 category masks often accumulate a lot of dust, bacteria and other dirt from the outside air in the outer layer, while the inner layer blocks exhaled bacteria, saliva, so the two sides should not be used interchangeably, otherwise the outer layer of contaminated dirt in direct close to the face when inhaled, and become a source of infection. It's not just a matter of time before we get to the point where we're ready to get to the point where we're ready to go. FFP2 category masks are similar to N95 and KN95 masks in that they cannot be cleaned. Because wetting will cause the mask to release static electricity, it is unable to absorb dust with a diameter of less than 5um.   High-temperature steam disinfection is similar to cleaning in that water vapor also causes static electricity to be released, resulting in mask failure.

Is the FFP2 mask a medical mask?

图片
The FFP2 mask is a medical mask. The filter material of FFP2 mask is mainly divided into four layers, i.e. two layers of non-woven fabric + one layer of sprayed fabric + one layer of needle-punched cotton.   FFP2 mask, is a European mask standard EN149:2001, the role is to harmful aerosols, including dust, smoke, mist droplets, toxic gases and toxic vapors, etc. through the filter adsorption, to block and not be inhaled. 94% of the minimum filtering effect of FFP2. Medical surgical masks, medical protective masks, N95, and FFP2 can all be used for medical facility protection, so ffp2 is a good medical protective mask.

Does the ffp3 mask protect against viruses?

图片
The FFP series is a European standard, the European standard for protective masks is divided into three levels: FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3, the latter number refers to the protection capacity, the higher the level of protection, the higher the FFP3 mask is for particles with an average diameter of 0.4μm, the filtering rate of 99%. It is currently the most protective mask on the market. Try to save these medical protection level masks for the frontline medics, they are the ones who need them the most. Don't just go for a high level of protection, ordinary medical masks are good enough for most people who are healthy and not in an infected area. Source: https://www.unisourcesgroup.com/news/56.html

Selection of masks for the FFP3 category

图片
The dust-blocking efficiency of a mask is high. The dust-blocking efficiency of a mask is based on its dust-blocking efficiency against fine dusts, especially respiratory dusts below 5 μm. The fit of the mask to the shape of the face should be good. When the mask does not fit snugly to the face, airborne dust can enter the respiratory tract through the gaps around the mask. It should be comfortable to wear, including low breathing resistance, light weight, hygienic to wear, and easy to maintain, such as wearing an arch anti-particulate mask. https://www.unisourcesgroup.com/news/53.html
