3M 8710 Technical Data Sheet

Description
The 3M™ 8710, 8210, 8812 and 8822 Particulate Respirators
provide eff ective respiratory protection for use in industries
where workers will be exposed to dust particles and/or non-
volatile liquid particles.
• Tested and certifi ed to AS/NZS 1716:2003.
• Traditional convex shape, with nose clip and twin strap design.
• Durable, collapse resistant inner shell.
• Reliable, eff ective protection against fi ne particles.
• 3M™ Advanced Electret Filter Material gives eff ective fi ltration
with low breathing resistance for consistent high quality
performance.
• 3M™ Cool Flow™ exhalation valve off ers improved comfort in
hot humid environments and/or where work is hard and physical*.

Datasheet
Standards
These products meet the requirements of Australian New Zealand
Standard AS/NZS 1716:2003, Respiratory protective devices. They
should be used to protect the wearer from solid and non-volatile
liquid particles only.
Particulate Filter Respirators are classifi ed by fi ltering effi ciency and
maximum total inward leakage performance (P1 & P2), also by
inhalation resistance.
P1 fi lters are indended for use against mechanically generated
particulates such as those generated from sanding, grinding, drilling,
sweeping etc.
P2 fi lters are intended for use against both mechanically and
thermally generated particulates e.g. welding, brazing etc. P2 fi lters
may also help reduce breathing in pathogenic biological airborne
particulates such as infl uenza virus.
Approvals
These respirators have been produced to comply with the
requirements of the Australian / New Zealand Standard AS/NZS
1716:2003 under an agreed production certifi cation scheme
operated during manufacture in accordance with the SAI Global
StandardsMark programme.
Applications
These respirators are suitable for use in concentrations of solid and
non-volatile liquid particles up to the following limits:
Model AS/NZS 1716
Classifi cation
8710 P1
8812 P1
8210 P2
8822 P2
ES = Exposure Standard
Respiratory protection is only eff ective if it is correctly selected, fi tted and
worn throughout the time when the wearer is exposed to hazards.
