Product Information

Feature a wraparound flexible lens that offers a comfortable fit with increased vision. Weighing 40% less than conventional full-face respirators and using the same cartridges as the Advantage 200 LS respirator, the Advantage 1000 respirator is constructed of super-soft Hycar rubber that provides the comfort of silicone with better permeation resistance. For exceptional fit, the facepiece is available in three sizes and has a unique inturned lip that provides the best possible seal against a wide range of facial contours. The facepiece is integrally bonded to a distinctive, flexible urethane lens, eliminating the need for rigid lens retainers that cause unwanted pressure points. Standard equipment includes a speaking diaphragm for clear, short-range communications and a nosecup to reduce lens fogging.

Features and Benefits

Wrap around lens with a soft, pliable silicone facepiece
Meets the requirements of ANSI Z87.1-2003
Available in three sizes
Standard nosecup
Full line of chemical cartridges and particulate filters -interchangeable with Advantage 200LS Respirator

Principles of Operation

Upon inhalation, the air stream flows through the cartridges, which remove contaminants, so the wearer breathes in clean, fresh air.

Approvals and Standards

Exceeds the performance requirements of ANSI Z87.1. Designed to meet the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and EN standards.

Product Information

Enhances worker performance through a design that allows even lower breathing resistance, a standard nosecup that reduces fogging and a soft, pliable silicone facepiece. A scratch resistant, wraparound lens engineered to be optically correct eliminates distortion for superior visibility and peripheral vision. Advantage 3000 uses the same cartridges and filters as the Advantage 200LS respirator.

Pre-adjustable straps deliver a consistent fit, time after time. The preset upper straps prevent uncomfortable snags during donning and doffing and provide a tighter, more secure seal. Wearers can choose the new European-style Advantage harness, which dons like a catcher’s mask.

Features and Benefits

Available with Hycar or silicone facepiece
Unique lens provides exceptional visibility
Standard nosecup and speaking diaphragm
Full line of chemical cartridges and particulate filters -interchangeable with Comfo Classic Respirator

Principles of Operation

Upon inhalation, the air stream flows through the cartridges, which remove contaminants, so the wearer breathes in clean, fresh air.

Approvals and Standards

Requiring only routine filter replacement, the Ultra Elite twin-cartridge respirator is approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) for use against a variety of respiratory hazards. Use MSA Cartridge Service Life Calculator to establish a cartridge change and schedule.

Product Information

The demand version of the Ultra Elite facepiece can be used as a twin-cartridge air-purifying respirator for full-face respiratory protection. The unique lens design provides a high level of peripheral and downward vision. It is available in three sizes and has large adjustment tabs that simplify wear. A choice of two facepiece materials - SoftFeel Hycar rubber or silicone - enhance wearer comfort. For improved communication, a speaking diaphragm in front of the wearer's mouth ensures clear short-range communications. A nosecup reduces lens fogging.

NOTE: Ultra Elite facepieces must be fitted with a twin-cartridge adapter if used as a twin-cartridge respirator.

Product Information

Provides protection against a wide variety of particulate contaminants including dusts, mists, fumes, asbestos and radionuclides. Ultra Filter respirators are full-face single-cartridge respirators that protect against particulate hazards, especially in the nuclear and abatement industries using a compact round cartridge that has a large effective filter area to provide low breathing resistance and high loading capacity.

Principles of Operation

Upon inhalation, the air stream flows through the cartridges, which remove contaminants, so the wearer breathes in clean, fresh air.

Approvals and Standards

Requiring only routine filter replacement, the Ultra-Twin respirator is approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) for use against a variety of respiratory hazards. Use MSA Cartridge Service Life Calculator to establish a cartridge change and schedule.

Product Information

Features an inturned lip around the edge for a secure, comfortable seal against the face, a large chin cup for easy positioning, as well as five suspension headstraps and roller buckles that hold the facepiece in place while minimizing hair entanglement. The wide polycarbonate lens resists scratching and chemical attack and is held in place by a two-piece lens ring which is color-coded to indicate the size of the facepiece. The Ultra-Twin includes a speaking diaphragm for clear, short-range communications, a nosecup to reduce lens fogging and uses the full line of Comfo cartridges and filters.
