Class P1 particulate filters are used against mechanically generated particulates e.g. wood dust.
Class P2 particulate filters are used for protection against mechanically and thermally generated particulates or both e.g. metal fumes.
Class P3 particulate filters are used for protection against highly toxic or highly irritant particulates e.g. beryllium (when worn with a full facepiece).

Gas and vapour cartridges categories are distinguished by their filter type and class. Refer to AS/NZS 1715 for the complete list of filter types and what they are used for. Some commonly used filter types are:

Filter type A = Certain organic vapours (boiling point above 65 degree celsius) from solvents such as those in paints and thinners (cartridge label colour = brown)
Filter type B = Acid gases such as chlorine and hydrogen sulfide (sulphide) (cartridge label colour = grey)
Filter type E = Sulfur dioxide (cartridge colour = yellow)
Filter type ABE = are suitable for both certain organic vapours/acid gases and sulfur dioxide e.g. solvents, chlorine and sulfur dioxide (cartridge label colour = brown, grey and yellow)
Filter type K = ammonia gas (cartridge label colour = green)
Filter type ABEK = are suitable for both certain organic vapours/acid gases, sulfur dioxide and ammonia (cartridge label colour = brown, grey, yellow and green)

3M Filters and Pre-Filters FAQs

Got questions about 3M filters and pre-filters? Learn about compatibility, selection, replacement guidelines, and how to keep your respiratory protection equipment performing at its best.

What types of 3M filters are available?

3M offers a wide range of filters including particulate filters (P2, P3), gas and vapour filters (A1, A2, B1, E1, K1 types), and combination filters that protect against multiple hazards. Selection depends on the type of airborne contaminant present in your work environment.

Are 3M filters compatible with all 3M respirators?

Compatibility varies by model. 3M filters are typically designed to fit specific series like the 6000, 6500, 7500, 7000, and full-face respirators. Always confirm that the filter type matches your respirator model and required protection level.

What P3 Filter can be used with the TR-300+ powered air respirator?

The TR300+ is compatible with the TR-3712E PAPR-P3 filter and the TR-3822E P3 Particulate with Nuisance Level, Acid Gas

When should I replace my 3M filter or pre-filter?

Filters should be replaced if breathing becomes difficult, you smell or taste contaminants, or the filter becomes damaged or soiled. Pre-filters often need replacing more frequently as they trap larger particles that can clog the filter faster.

What is the purpose of a 3M pre-filter?

A pre-filter captures larger dust and particulate matter before they reach the main filter. This helps extend the life of the main particulate filter and keeps breathing resistance lower for longer.

Can I combine different 3M filters for extra protection?

Yes, 3M offers systems that allow users to attach particulate filters onto gas and vapour filters, providing combined protection. Check the compatibility guide for your respirator to ensure proper use and performance.

How should I store 3M filters and pre-filters?

Store filters in a clean, dry area away from direct sunlight, dust, and chemical vapours. Always keep unused filters in their original packaging until needed to maintain their effectiveness and shelf life.
