Frequently Asked Questions

What assigned protection factor do Moldex half-mask respirators provide?

A Moldex half-mask respirator shares the standard half-mask rating: an OSHA assigned protection factor of 10, valid after a proper fit test and with the right cartridges or filters fitted.

Do Moldex half-mask respirators come with cartridges or filters?

Generally the Moldex reusable facepiece is sold apart from its consumables. Pick the cartridge or filter that fits your hazard - particulate, organic vapor, acid gas, or a combination.

Is fit testing required for a Moldex half-mask?

Yes. OSHA 1910.134 calls for a fit test before first use and annually thereafter, plus a medical evaluation, because the Moldex facepiece protects only through a sound face-to-mask seal.

Will a Moldex half-mask seal over facial hair?

No. Hair crossing the sealing surface breaks the seal and fails fit testing. The sealing zone must be clean-shaven for a tight-fitting Moldex half-mask to actually protect you.

How often do the cartridges or filters need replacing?

Use a change schedule driven by the contaminant and its concentration. Replace particulate filters once breathing resistance rises, and change gas or vapor cartridges on schedule or at the first odor or taste.

Moldex half-mask or full-face - which suits my work?

A full-face respirator adds eye protection and a higher protection factor. The Moldex half-mask is lighter and works where eyes are protected separately and only basic breathing protection is needed.

Can a Moldex half-mask respirator be used in oxygen-deficient or IDLH areas?

No. The Moldex air-purifying facepiece filters air but adds no oxygen. Oxygen-deficient or IDLH atmospheres require a supplied-air respirator or an SCBA.

How should I clean and store a Moldex half-mask respirator?

Disassemble the Moldex facepiece, wash with a mild cleaner, rinse, and air-dry. Store it sealed in a bag, away from sunlight, dust, and the contaminants the respirator is meant to stop.

What sizes do Moldex half-mask respirators come in?

Moldex reusable facepieces are usually offered in small, medium, and large. Because size affects the seal, a fit test confirms which Moldex facepiece gives a reliable, leak-free fit.

How long do Moldex half-mask respirators last?

With care, the Moldex facepiece lasts for years. Cartridges, filters, and worn parts such as straps and valves are consumables that you replace as they wear out.
