The Alpha Solway S-3V Disposable Respirators are high performance, pre-formed cup shape FFP3 face masks. The Alpha S was specifically designed to provide an excellent fit, even for the smaller face. Working alongside the fit2fit accreditation scheme and numerous users, Alpha Solway developed a simple solution to an industry wide problem.
The Alpha S offers outstanding respiratory protection, even for users with a smaller face. The S-3V mask has a unique inner face seal, which helps to maintain a close and snug fit around the chin area. This is generally regarded by experienced fit testers to be the main weakness on standard disposable respirators. A four point head strap allows the mask to sit both securely and comfortably. The mask also features a pre formed nose bridge, which removes the need for regular adjustment.
The mask conforms to FFP3 (EN 149:2001 + A1:2009) standards, so it can be used in a number of roles. These include health care, hospitals, disease control, mining or underground engineering and work with metal, wood or textiles.
- FFP3 - protects against harmful or carcinogenic dusts, water and oil based mists or aerosols and biological agents of risk groups 2 and 3 in concentrations of up to 20 x WEL.
