Key features — 3M Secure Click D80923 OV/AG/P100 cartridge

• Triple-class protection in one housing: organic vapor sorbent + acid gas sorbent (Cl2, HCl, SO2, HF) + integrated oil-resistant P100 filter (99.97% at 0.3 µm) — no separate filter or retainer
• Closes the acid gas gap: the correct step up from the D80921 when chlorinated solvents or acid-generating processes are confirmed in your hazard assessment
• Secure Click positive-lock mount: audible click confirms full engagement — operationally critical in gloved acid-handling environments where tactile feedback is reduced
• Fits the full Secure Click fleet: one D80923 pair covers HF-801 (S), HF-802 (M), HF-803 (L) half-face (APF 10) and FF-800 full-face (APF 50) — simplifies multi-size program stocking
• NIOSH TC-23C combination approval: single approved device for OV + AG + P100 under 42 CFR Part 84 Subpart L — clean compliance documentation for your written program
• Oil-resistant P100 element: handles spray mist and aerosol alongside acid gas and OV vapors without separate filter assembly
• Sold as 1 pair: both cartridges included per pack — replace left and right simultaneously as required

Primary use cases — when to order the 3M D80923

• Chlorinated solvent spray operations: perchloroethylene (PERC), trichloroethylene (TCE), methylene chloride — can release HCl and Cl2 under heat or agitation; the D80921 OV-only misses these byproducts
• Acid-catalyzed coating application: acid-cure lacquers, conversion coatings, two-component acid-catalyzed wood and metal finishes — catalyst releases acid gas during spray and cure alongside organic solvent vapor
• Electroplating spray environments: sulfuric acid mist, chromic acid aerosol, and combined OV/acid exposures in plating shops and anodizing lines
• Semiconductor etch and clean processes: HCl/HF acid gases alongside organic solvent vapors and fine aerosol particulate in certain fab process steps
• Not for: isocyanate-containing coatings (SAR required), CO, ammonia, formaldehyde exposures — step up to the D80926 for those hazards

What respirators does the 3M D80923 fit? — Secure Click compatibility

The 3M Secure Click D80923 OV AG P100 combination cartridge is compatible exclusively with Secure Click platform facepieces. It uses a push-and-click positive-lock mount that is physically incompatible with the twist-and-lock bayonet port on 3M 6000, 6500, 7000, 7500, and 7800S series respirators. One D80923 pair fits every facepiece in the Secure Click fleet:

On the half-face HF-800, the D80923 delivers APF 10 — covering acid gas, OV, and particulate concentrations up to 10× the OSHA PEL for each contaminant. In acid gas environments where peak concentrations may approach or exceed 10× PEL (high-volume acid misting, spray surges in electroplating), move to the FF-800 full-face for APF 50 with the same D80923 cartridge. For users on 3M 6000 or 7000 series bayonet facepieces, the equivalent cartridge is the 3M 60923 — not compatible with D-series cartridges.

The D80923 also works alongside other Secure Click filters. If your program separates vapor tasks from particulate-only tasks, see the 3M Secure Click D3091 P100 filter for particulate-only rotations on the same facepiece fleet, and the D9093 P100 hard case filter for programs requiring impact-resistant filter housing.

3M Secure Click D80923 vs D80921 vs D8003 — which combination cartridge do you need?

When to choose the D80923 over the D80921: your SDS lists a chlorinated solvent, acid-catalyzed coating, or any acid gas byproduct alongside organic vapor and particulate. The D80921 provides zero acid gas protection in those scenarios.

When to choose the D80923 over the D8003: spray application or aerosol generation is part of your process — the D8003 covers OV and acid gas with no particulate element; choose it only for non-spray, wipe-on, or dip processes.

When to step up to the D80926: ammonia (NH3), methylamine, or formaldehyde are documented in your hazard inventory — the D80923 does not cover those gases. See the D80926 editorial review for the full multi-gas comparison.

Frequently asked questions — ordering the 3M Secure Click D80923

Which Secure Click respirator size should I order with the D80923?

The D80923 cartridge is the same for all sizes — it fits the 3M HF-801 (small), 3M HF-802 (medium), and 3M HF-803 (large) half-face respirators, and the 3M FF-800 full-face (S/M/L). The cartridge purchase is independent of facepiece size — order the facepiece size based on your fit test results, then pair it with the D80923 cartridge. If you do not yet have a Secure Click facepiece, the HF-802 medium is the most commonly ordered starting size.

Is the D80923 sold as a single cartridge or a pair?

The 3M Secure Click D80923 is sold as 1 pair per pack (2 cartridges). Both the left and right cartridge ports on the HF-800 and FF-800 facepieces require a cartridge. Always replace both cartridges simultaneously at your documented change-out interval — never operate with one fresh and one spent cartridge.

How many pairs of D80923 cartridges should I stock for a crew of 10?

Stock quantity depends on your change-out interval, calculated from 3M's Chemical Cartridge Service Life Estimation Software for each documented contaminant. In acid gas and chlorinated solvent spray environments, change-out intervals can be as short as one shift depending on concentration and relative humidity. A conservative starting point for a 10-person crew with daily replacement is 50 pairs per week (5 working days). Consult your industrial hygienist or safety manager to calculate the accurate program quantity before procurement. Browse the 3M cartridge collection for available pack sizes.

Can I use D80923 cartridges on the 3M FF-800 full-face respirator for higher protection?

Yes. The D80923 fits the 3M FF-800 full-face Secure Click respirator, elevating the assigned protection factor from APF 10 (half-face HF-800) to APF 50 (full-face FF-800). This is the recommended upgrade for acid gas environments where peak concentrations may exceed 10× the OSHA PEL, or where facial splash protection against acid aerosol is also required.

What is the difference between the D80923 and the D8006 multi-gas cartridge — which should I order?

The D8006 covers OV + acid gas + ammonia + formaldehyde with no P100 particulate filter. The D80923 covers OV + acid gas + P100 with no ammonia or formaldehyde. Order the D80923 when you have acid gas and OV alongside spray aerosol but no ammonia or formaldehyde. Order the D8006 when you have a multi-gas vapor environment (including ammonia or formaldehyde) with no spray particulate component. If your hazard includes both multi-gas vapors and P100 particulate, see the D80926.

Does ordering the D80923 require any additional filters or retainers?

No. The 3M Secure Click D80923 is a self-contained combination cartridge — the organic vapor sorbent, acid gas sorbent, and P100 particulate filter are all integrated in a single housing. There is no separate filter disc, retainer, or adapter to order. Install the cartridge pair by pressing each one onto the facepiece port until the audible Secure Click engagement is confirmed. No tools required.

How do I calculate the correct change-out schedule for D80923 cartridges in my facility?

OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134(d)(3)(iii)(B) requires a documented change-out schedule for activated carbon cartridges without an ESLI. Use 3M's Chemical Cartridge Service Life Estimation Software (available at 3m.com) to calculate service life separately for each documented contaminant — organic vapor compounds, and each acid gas (Cl2, HCl, SO2, HF) in your hazard profile. Input each chemical's measured or estimated concentration, relative humidity, and worker breathing rate. Apply the most conservative (shortest) calculated result as your program's replacement interval. Document this calculation in your written respiratory protection program. Never use odor as a change-out trigger — HF and some acid gases produce health effects at concentrations below detectable odor thresholds.

What is the bayonet-system equivalent of the D80923 for my 6000-series respirator?

The functional equivalent for 3M 6000, 6500, 7000, 7500, and 7800S bayonet respirators is the 3M 60923 combination cartridge — same OV + acid gas + P100 protection profile, bayonet mount. The D80923 Secure Click cartridge is physically incompatible with bayonet facepieces; no adapter exists. Upgrading to the Secure Click platform requires purchasing an HF-800 Secure Click facepiece alongside the D80923 cartridges. Read the Secure Click platform guide for platform migration details.

Should I order the D80923 or the D80921 for spray paint jobs that include an acid-catalyzed topcoat?

Order the D80923. Acid-catalyzed topcoats (acid-catalyzed lacquers, acid-cure conversion coatings) release acid gas components during spray application and cure. The D80921 covers OV and P100 only — it provides no acid gas protection. When acid-catalyzed materials are in your coating process, the D80923 is the correct specification. Confirm the specific acid gas identity from the coating SDS and verify it falls within the D80923's approved acid gas coverage list. If the coating contains an isocyanate hardener, a supplied-air respirator is required regardless of cartridge selection.

Is the D80923 compatible with 3M half-face respirators in all three sizes — small, medium, and large?

Yes. The 3M Secure Click D80923 fits 3M HF-801 (small), 3M HF-802 (medium), and 3M HF-803 (large) — the complete HF-800 half-face series. All three sizes use the same Secure Click port, so the D80923 cartridge pair is universal across the Secure Click half-face lineup. Order the facepiece size that passes your worker's fit test, then purchase D80923 pairs for each worker's assigned respirator regardless of size.

What is the shelf life of the D80923 before opening?

3M specifies a shelf life for Secure Click combination cartridges stored in original sealed packaging. Check the date code printed on the cartridge packaging and the 3M Technical Data Sheet for the D80923 for the current storage-life specification. Store cartridges in a cool, dry location away from contaminated environments — activated carbon sorbent can pre-load from ambient vapor exposure if stored improperly. Do not stockpile beyond your calculated consumption rate, as pre-expired cartridge inventory creates compliance documentation complexity in your written program.

If I currently use the D8003, can I switch to the D80923 for added particulate protection?

Yes — the D80923 is the correct upgrade from the D8003 when spray application or aerosol generation has been added to a previously non-spray process, or when a hazard reassessment identifies airborne particulate alongside the OV and acid gas hazards already being addressed. The D80923 and D8003 use the same Secure Click mount and the same facepieces — no facepiece change required when switching. Update your written respiratory protection program and change-out schedule documentation to reflect the D80923 after the cartridge switch.

Does the D80923 require fit testing on every Secure Click facepiece size?

Fit testing under OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134(f) is performed on the facepiece, not the cartridge. If a worker has a passing fit test on the HF-802 medium with any Secure Click cartridge, they do not need a separate fit test specifically for the D80923 on the same facepiece model. The cartridge does not affect the seal of the facepiece against the face. Fit testing is required when a worker is newly assigned a respirator, when the facepiece model or size changes, or when the worker's physical condition changes in a way that could affect the seal. See OSHA 1910.134 Appendix A and B for qualitative and quantitative fit test protocols.
