3M™ Aura™ Particulate Respirators
9300+Gen3 Series
Technical Data Sheet
Product description
The 3M™ Aura™ Particulate Respirators 9300+Gen3 Series meet the requirements of European Standard
EN 149:2001 + A1:2009, filtering facepiece respirators for use against particles. They provide effective respiratory protection for use in industries where workers will be exposed to solid (dust) particles and/or non-volatile liquid particles.
Applications
These respirators are suitable for use in concentrations of solid (dust) particles and/or non-volatile liquid particles up to the following limits:

*Many countries apply Assigned Protection Factors (APFs) which reduce the maximum concentrations of particles in which these products can be used. See national regulations and EN 529:2005.
Respiratory protection is only effective if it is correctly selected, fitted and worn throughout the time when the wearer is exposed to hazards.
Filter penetration
The filter penetration, initial and after 120mg of loading with both 120mg of NaCl* and Paraffin Oil, shall not exceed the following limits:

*Loading of NaCl may be stopped if filter penetration during loading is observed to decrease.
Total inward leakage
Ten subjects perform five test exercises whilst wearing the respirator. The total inward leakage inside of the respirator due to face seal leakage, filter penetration and valve leakage is measured for each subject exercise. The subject mean total inward leakage for 8 out of 10 subjects shall not exceed the following limits:

Standards
Products are classified by filtering efficiency and maximum total inward leakage performance (FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3), also by usability and clogging resistance.
Performance tests in this standard include filter penetration; extended exposure (loading) test; flammability; breathing resistance and total inward leakage. Reusable products are also subjected to cleaning, storage and mandatory clogging resistance tests (clogging is optional for non reusable
products). A full copy of EN 149:2001+A1:2009 can 1 be purchased from your national standards body.

Breathing resistance
The breathing resistance of the respirator is tested during inhalation and exhalation. The breathing resistance of the respirators shall not exceed the following limits:

Clogging
For single shift use respirators (NR), the clogging test
is optional. For re-usable respirators (R) this test is mandatory. The respirators are loaded with very high amount of Dolomite dust which will tend to clog the filter. After loading with the required amount of dust, the breathing resistance of the respirators shall not exceed the following limits:

Flammability
Tested respirators are mounted on a metallic head which rotates with a linear speed of 60mm/s. The respirators are passed within 20mm of the tip of an 800°C (±50°C) propane burner flame. The respirator shall not burn or continue to burn within 5 seconds of removal from the flame.
