It captures ≥99.97% of oil and non-oil airborne particles and reduces acid gas odor at sub-PEL concentrations.

It will not fit 3M bayonet respirators such as the 6000, 6500QL, 7500, 7800S, or FF-400 series — the Secure Click push-to-connect geometry is incompatible with bayonet mounts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eDoes the D3096 protect against acid gas?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly at nuisance (sub-PEL) concentrations.

The D3091 has no sorbent layer; the D3096 adds a nuisance acid gas sorbent for sub-PEL odor relief.

It is suited to lead-acid battery assembly, electroplating, metal pickling, and other work where acid gas concentrations are below the PEL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eDoes the D3096 fit 3M bayonet respirators?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The D3096 uses the Secure Click push-to-connect mount and fits only the 3M HF-800 and FF-800 Secure Click respirators. It will not physically attach to bayonet masks such as the 3M 6000, 6500QL, 7500, 7800S, or FF-400 series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eIs the D3096 approved for acid gas protection?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot for above-PEL acid gas protection. The D3096 is NIOSH TC-21C approved as a P100 particulate filter. The nuisance acid gas sorbent is a comfort feature for sub-PEL odor reduction only — it is not TC-23C certified. For certified acid gas protection, use the D80923 combination cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eWhat is the difference between the D3096 and the D80923?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D3096 is a P100 particulate filter with nuisance acid gas comfort relief — appropriate only when acid gas is confirmed below the PEL. The D80923 is a P100 combination cartridge with NIOSH TC-23C certification for organic vapor and acid gas at or above the PEL. When in doubt about acid gas levels, use the D80923.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eHow many D3096 filters come in a pack?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D3096 is sold as 1 pair — 2 filters per package. Each respirator uses one filter per side, so one pack is one complete set for your respirator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eIs the D3096 P100 or P95?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D3096 is P100, meaning it captures at least 99.97% of oil and non-oil airborne particles — the highest NIOSH particulate efficiency class. It is also P-rated (oil-proof), unlike N-series filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eWhat is the difference between the D3096 and the D3097?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth are Secure Click P100 filters with nuisance-level odor sorbents. The D3096 contains an acid gas sorbent for acid odor relief; the D3097 contains an organic vapor sorbent for solvent and chemical odor relief. Choose based on the type of sub-PEL odor present in your environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eIs the D3096 good for silica dust?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. P100 is the recognized standard for silica, lead, and asbestos protection. The D3096 provides P100 (≥99.97%) filtration for these high-toxicity particulates on Secure Click respirators, with the added benefit of acid gas odor relief if acid vapors are also present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eDoes the D3096 protect against organic vapors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The D3096 has an acid gas sorbent, not an organic vapor sorbent. For organic vapor protection on Secure Click respirators, use the D3097 (nuisance OV sorbent) or the D80921\/D80923 certified combination cartridges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eCan I use the D3096 on an FF-800 full-face respirator?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The FF-800 is a Secure Click full-facepiece respirator, and the D3096 is designed to seat on it with an audible click using the push-to-connect mount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eWhat color is the 3M D3096 filter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D3096 is magenta\/pink with a green band — the green band signals the presence of the acid gas sorbent layer, consistent with 3M's color-coding convention for combination filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eWhen should I replace the D3096?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplace the D3096 when it is damaged, soiled, crushed, or becomes difficult to breathe through, or according to your employer's written respiratory protection program. The NAG sorbent has a service life dependent on acid gas concentration and exposure time — follow your program's end-of-service-life indicator (ESLI) guidance or replace on a scheduled interval.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#ffb74d;\"\u003eWhat is the GTIN \/ barcode for the 3M D3096?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GTIN (barcode) for the 3M Secure Click D3096 is 051131278158.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- 15.
