What Is Fit Testing?
Fit Testing is a way of checking that a respirator face mask fits the wearer's face shape properly to seal all the features adequately. The performance of tight fitting masks depends on filtering technologies and achieving a good seal between the wearer's skin and the mask to provide protection from airborne contaminants.
Why I Do I Need a Fit Test Kit?
The Approved Code of Practices (ACOPs) and COSHH regulations stipulate that it is mandatory for anyone required to wear RPE to have their masks and respirators fit tested. That's because wearing an ill-fitting face covering will significantly reduce the protection provided and could put the wearer's health, or even life, in danger.
What Type of Masks Can Be Tested?
The Moldex Bitter Fit Test can be be used to test your RPE whether they are FFP (filtering face piece) disposables, half face or full face respirators. It is important to remember that this test is for the fit suitability of the masks to an individual's face shape and does not assess the efficacy of the RPE being tested.
