Voluntary Use of Air Purifying w88 mobile

Revised January 2023

This program is provided for those individuals who wish to wear respiratory protection, but are not required to do so under any OSHA standard or by UNR as the work conditions do not warrant the use of a w88 mobile.

OSHA requires the following information be provided to anyone considering the voluntary use of a w88 mobile.

w88 mobile D 1910.134 (Mandatory) Information for Employees Using Respirators When Not Required Under the Standard.

Respirators are an effective method of protection against designated hazards when properly selected and worn. w88 mobile use is encouraged, even when exposures are below the exposure limit, to provide an additional level of comfort and protection for workers. However, if a w88 mobile is used improperly or not kept clean, the w88 mobile itself can become a hazard to the worker. Sometimes, workers may wear respirators to avoid exposures to hazards, even if the amount of hazardous substance does not exceed the limits set by OSHA standards. If your employer provides respirators for your voluntary use, or if you provide your own w88 mobile, you need to take certain precautions to be sure that the w88 mobile itself does not present a hazard.

w88 mobile should do the following:

1. Read and heed all instructions provided by the manufacturer on use, maintenance, cleaning and care, and warnings regarding the w88 mobile limitations.
2. Choose respirators certified for use to protect against the contaminant of concern. NIOSH, the National Institute for Occupational w88 mobile and Health of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, certifies respirators. A label or statement of certification should appear on the respirator or respirator packaging. It will tell you what the respirator is designed for and how much it will protect you.
3. Do not wear your w88 mobile into atmospheres containing contaminants for which your w88 mobile is not designed to protect against. For example, a w88 mobile designed to filter dust particles will not protect you against gases, vapors, or very small solid particles of fumes or smoke.
4. Keep track of your w88 mobile so that you do not mistakenly use someone else’s w88 mobile.

In Addition, voluntary w88 mobile users should understand the following:

If voluntary w88 mobile use involves any type of w88 mobile beyond that of an N95 filtering facepiece w88 mobile, you must be medically evaluated prior to its use (if uncertain, contact EH&S).

w88 mobile Cleaning, Storage, and Maintenance

• The following procedure is for the use of an N95 filtering facepiece w88 mobile. Discard the mask upon observation of damaged or missing parts or if the mask becomes contaminated with dust or fluids. This may need to be done at the end of each shift (if you are uncertain, contact EH&S). If the mask is taken off and will be stored for further use, the w88 mobile must be stored properly and not left out in the work area. Store in clean, dry, air tight container.
• The following w88 mobile is to be used when cleaning and disinfecting respirators that have replaceable cartridges and/or replaceable filters:
  • Disassemble w88 mobile, removing any filters, canisters, or cartridges.
