Product
The 3M Aura 9322+ is a disposable FFP2 respirator mask equipped with a Cool Flow valve, designed to provide reliable particulate filtration in occupational environments where dust, mist, and fume hazards are present. Supplied in a pack of 10.
Specifications
- Features 3M's proprietary three-panel flat-fold design (Aura series) that conforms closely to the face, reducing pressure points and improving the seal
- Equipped with a Cool Flow exhalation valve that reduces heat and moisture build-up inside the mask, promoting cooler and more comfortable breathing during extended wear
- Provides FFP2-level respiratory protection, filtering at least 94% of airborne particles
- Certified to European standard EN 149:2001 + A1:2009 FFP2 NR D, carrying CE Mark 0086
- The "NR D" rating indicates the mask is non-reusable and has passed the optional dolomite clogging test, confirming sustained breathability in dusty conditions
- Compatible with 3M safety eyewear and hard hats, allowing integration into broader personal protective equipment setups
- Colour: white
- Individually packaged for hygiene; sold in packs of 10 units (Ref: 9322-10)
- Low-profile design that sits comfortably under visors and welding shields
- Embossed nose panel with adjustable nosepiece for a secure, customised fit
- Soft inner face seal material helps reduce skin irritation
Usage
Unfold the respirator and position it over the nose and chin. Adjust the nosepiece by pressing it firmly along the bridge of the nose, then secure both headbands behind the head. Perform a fit check by exhaling sharply to verify there are no air leaks around the edges. Discard the mask after a single shift or when breathing resistance increases noticeably.
FAQ
- What does FFP2 protection mean? FFP2 is a European filtration classification indicating the respirator filters at least 94% of airborne particles, offering protection against fine dust, liquid aerosols, and solid particulates.
- What is the Cool Flow valve and why does it matter? The Cool Flow valve is a one-way exhalation valve that opens when the wearer breathes out, releasing warm, moist air from inside the mask. This reduces heat build-up and fogging, making the respirator more comfortable during prolonged use.
- Can this mask be reused? No. The "NR" designation in the certification means the mask is rated for single-shift use only and should be disposed of after each use or when it becomes damaged or difficult to breathe through.
- Is the 3M Aura 9322+ compatible with other PPE? Yes. Its low-profile, flat-fold design is specifically engineered to be compatible with 3M safety eyewear, goggles, hard hats, and face shields, allowing workers to wear a full complement of protective equipment without interference.
- What does the "D" rating in the certification mean? The "D" indicates the respirator has passed the dolomite dust clogging test outlined in EN 149. This means it maintains acceptable breathing resistance even in high-dust environments, confirming sustained comfort and performance throughout its intended use period.
