3M Secure Click D9093CB P100 Hard Case Filter with Nuisance Acid Gas Relief, Case/144

3M Secure Click D9093CB P100 NAG Hard Case Filter — Case/144 for High-Volume Acid-Adjacent Programs

3M Secure Click D9093CB P100 NAG hard case filter combines three features in a single bulk purchasing unit: P100 particulate filtration (99.97%, oil-resistant), nuisance acid gas odor relief (activated carbon sorbent layer), and a rigid polycarbonate hard case — all in a case of 144 individual filters (72 pairs). This SKU is designed for high-volume safety programs where hard case durability and nuisance acid gas relief are both needed, and procurement volume justifies bulk case buying. Critical boundary: the nuisance acid gas sorbent is NOT NIOSH-approved vapor-phase acid gas protection — it addresses nuisance-level odor and low-level exposure relief only. For acid gas at or above the OSHA PEL, a cartridge-based acid gas respirator is required. Sold as Case/144 only; for single-pair NAG without hard case, see the D3096.

The 3M Secure Click D9093CB is a NIOSH-approved P100 particulate filter (TC-21C, 99.97%, oil-resistant) with an activated carbon nuisance acid gas relief layer, housed in a rigid polycarbonate hard case, sold exclusively as a case of 144 individual filter elements (72 pairs) for high-volume industrial safety programs.

3M Secure Click D9093CB P100 NAG hard case filter — key features

• Three-feature convergence — P100 particulate (99.97%), nuisance acid gas odor relief (activated carbon), and rigid polycarbonate hard case combined in one SKU; eliminates the need to stock a separate hard-case filter and a separate NAG filter for programs requiring both
• Case of 144 individual filters = 72 pairs — bulk procurement format designed for high-volume replacement programs; reduces reorder frequency and per-filter cost versus smaller pack sizes for programs already consuming D9093 or D3096 at high volume
• Rigid polycarbonate hard case — same housing as the D9093; resists crush damage in toolboxes and equipment bags, allows exterior decontamination by wiping, protects filter media from oil and moisture during off-shift storage
• CRITICAL: NAG sorbent is nuisance-level only — not OSHA-approved acid gas protection: the D9093CB's nuisance acid gas (NAG) layer provides odor relief and nuisance-level exposure reduction for acid gases. It is NOT NIOSH TC-23C approved for acid gas protection. For acid gas concentrations at or above the OSHA PEL, a cartridge-based acid gas respirator such as the D8003 OV/AG cartridge is required
• P100 particulate (NIOSH TC-21C) — meets the P100 requirement for lead, silica, hexavalent chromium, and other OSHA-regulated particulate hazards requiring P100
• Secure Click positive-lock mount — audible click confirms full engagement on HF-800 / FF-800 facepiece ports
• Sold as Case/144 only — not available in single-pair format at this SKU; use the D3096 for single-pair P100 + NAG without hard case

Specifications

Primary use cases for the 3M Secure Click D9093CB

• Lead-acid battery manufacturing — battery assembly and formation areas generate both particulate (lead dust) and nuisance-level acid gas (sulfuric acid aerosol, hydrogen off-gas) at concentrations where NAG relief is appropriate; the D9093CB's three-feature combination directly matches this hazard profile
• Electroplating and metal finishing with acid adjacency — operations where P100 particulate is the primary requirement and nuisance-level acid mist (chromic acid, nickel sulfamate, sulfuric acid) is a secondary concern at below-PEL concentrations
• High-volume multi-shift reuse programs with acid-adjacent environments — safety programs already consuming the D9093 at high volume but wanting NAG relief for nuisance acid gas odor; the D9093CB consolidates both into one case-quantity SKU
• Procurement programs standardizing on a single Secure Click filter SKU across multiple hazard zones where hard case + P100 + NAG covers the full site hazard profile — reduces inventory complexity for safety managers
• Battery recycling and acid handling operations where P100 particulate and nuisance-level acid gas exposure co-exist with rough handling conditions requiring hard case housing for filter integrity

Not for: acid gas at or above the OSHA PEL (requires cartridge acid gas protection, not NAG sorbent); HF aerosol environments (use D9093C); programs needing single-pair NAG without hard case (use D3096); programs needing vapor OV protection (use D80921 or D80923).

3M Secure Click D9093CB compatible respirators — HF-800 and FF-800 platform

The 3M Secure Click D9093CB P100 NAG hard case filter is compatible only with 3M Secure Click platform facepieces. It is not compatible with bayonet-style respirators (3M 6000, 6500, 7000, 7500, 7800S series). For equivalent NAG relief on bayonet-mount platforms, consult the 3M 6000-series filter catalog.

Related filters in the Secure Click ecosystem for the same facepiece platform: D3096 (P100 + NAG, soft disc, 1 pair) · D9093 (P100 hard case, no NAG, 1 pair) · D9093C (P100 + HF media, hard case, 1 pair) · D80923 (OV/AG + P100, cartridge, for full acid gas vapor protection)

3M Secure Click D9093CB vs. D3096, D9093, and D9093C — NAG + hard case decision matrix

Choose the D9093CB when: your program requires both hard case durability and nuisance acid gas relief, your procurement volume supports a case-of-144 purchase, and your application involves battery manufacturing, electroplating, or similar acid-adjacent environments.

Choose the D3096 when: you need P100 + NAG in single-pair quantities and the hard case housing is not required for your storage and handling conditions — the D3096 is lighter, lower-profile, and lower-cost per pair. The full Secure Click lineup is in the 3M respirator filters and cartridges collection. For platform context, see the 3M Secure Click guide.

Frequently asked questions — buying the 3M Secure Click D9093CB P100 NAG hard case filter

What is the minimum order for the D9093CB — can I buy a single pair?

The 3M Secure Click D9093CB is sold only as a case of 144 individual filters (72 pairs) at this SKU. There is no single-pair option for the D9093CB. If your program needs P100 + nuisance acid gas relief in single-pair quantities without the hard case, use the D3096. If you need the hard case without NAG in single-pair quantities, use the D9093. The D9093CB case/144 format is a procurement SKU for high-volume programs, not a small-program option.

How long will a case of 144 D9093CB filters last for a 20-worker battery manufacturing program?

At 2 filters per change-out (1 pair = 1 respirator setup), a case of 144 provides 72 complete change-outs. For a 20-worker program at end-of-shift daily replacement, one case provides approximately 3.6 worker-days of coverage (72 ÷ 20 = 3.6 replacement cycles). For a weekly replacement schedule in lower-loading environments, the same case supports a 20-worker program for approximately 3.6 weeks. Estimate your program's case consumption rate against those numbers to plan your reorder schedule and bulk purchasing cadence.

Is the D9093CB compatible with both the HF-800 half-face and FF-800 full-face respirator?

Yes. The D9093CB is compatible with all 3M Secure Click platform facepieces: HF-801 Small, HF-802 Medium, HF-803 Large (all half-face, APF 10), and FF-801 Small, FF-802 Medium, FF-803 Large (all full-face, APF 50). For battery manufacturing programs where P100 + NAG at APF 50 is required, the FF-800 full-face with D9093CB delivers the required protection level. For exposures above 50x PEL, a supplied-air respirator is required.

Does the nuisance acid gas sorbent in the D9093CB protect against sulfuric acid at OSHA regulatory concentrations?

No — nuisance-level only. The D9093CB's NAG sorbent provides odor relief and nuisance-level exposure reduction for acid gases including sulfuric acid aerosol. It is NOT approved under NIOSH TC-23C as an acid gas respirator. For sulfuric acid exposure at or above the OSHA PEL (1 mg/m³ as sulfuric acid mist, 29 CFR 1910.1000 Table Z-2), the D9093CB is not the compliant respiratory protection. At regulatory-level acid gas concentrations, a full cartridge-based acid gas or combination cartridge respirator (such as the D80923 OV/AG + P100) is required. The D9093CB is appropriate for facilities where acid gas is present below PEL as a background nuisance alongside the primary P100 particulate hazard.

Can I use the D9093CB instead of the D9093 to simplify procurement if my site has some acid-adjacent zones?

Yes — program-driven SKU consolidation is a primary intended use case for the D9093CB. If your facility has zones requiring P100 + NAG (battery charging, pickling, plating) and zones requiring P100 only (lead abatement, silica grinding), specifying the D9093CB across the entire site eliminates two separate SKUs. The D9093CB performs equivalently to the D9093 in non-acid-gas zones (NAG sorbent does not reduce P100 particulate performance). The case/144 format supports the higher procurement volume that makes cross-zone SKU standardization economical.

What size HF-800 respirator should I specify for my workers when ordering D9093CB for a fleet program?

The D9093CB filter fits all HF-800 sizes (HF-801 Small, HF-802 Medium, HF-803 Large) and all FF-800 full-face sizes. For a fleet program, specify facepiece sizes based on individual worker sizing (3M's published HF-800 sizing guide uses jaw width measurement). A single case of 144 D9093CB filters supports any mix of HF-800 facepiece sizes — the filter is the same regardless of facepiece size. Order facepieces separately by worker size and combine with the shared D9093CB case stock.

How does the D9093CB differ from ordering D9093 and D3096 separately?

Ordering D9093 and D3096 separately requires two SKUs, two reorder processes, and separate inventory management for zones with different requirements. The D9093CB combines both features — hard case and NAG relief — at the cost of the case/144 buying constraint. For programs already consuming P100 + NAG filters at high volume and requiring hard case housing in the same program, the D9093CB reduces procurement overhead. The trade-off: the D9093CB is only available in the case/144 format; mixed-requirement programs with lower overall volume may find it more economical to stock D9093 pairs and D3096 pairs separately rather than committing to the 144-count case.

Does the D9093CB hard case allow exterior decontamination before doffing?

Yes. The polycarbonate exterior of the D9093CB can be wiped with an appropriate decontaminant between uses without contacting the filter media inside the sealed case — the same decontamination capability as the D9093. For battery manufacturing programs where the filter exterior may be exposed to sulfuric acid aerosol or lead dust during use, exterior wipe-down before doffing reduces contamination transfer risk. This capability is not available on the soft-disc D3096, whose exposed media surface cannot be safely wiped.

Is the D9093CB appropriate for a chlorine or hydrochloric acid environment?

The D9093CB's NAG sorbent provides nuisance-level odor and exposure relief for some acid gases including low-level HCl. For chlorine or hydrochloric acid at or above OSHA regulatory concentrations (OSHA PEL for chlorine: 1 ppm ceiling; HCl: 5 ppm ceiling per 29 CFR 1910.1000), the D9093CB is not compliant respiratory protection. At or above PEL levels for these acid gases, a cartridge-based acid gas respirator approved under NIOSH TC-23C is required. The D9093CB is appropriate for nuisance odor relief in environments where measured chlorine or HCl concentrations are confirmed below the applicable OSHA PEL and nuisance relief is sufficient.

Will the D9093CB fit on the same HF-802 facepiece used for D9093 or D7N11 filters?

Yes. The D9093CB uses the same Secure Click push-and-click mount as all D-series filters and installs on HF-801, HF-802, HF-803, and FF-800 series facepieces — the same facepiece platform used for the D9093, D7N11 N95, and other D-series options. Programs can standardize on a single facepiece platform while using task-specific filter selection from the D9093CB case stock for acid-adjacent zones.

How does the NAG sorbent in the D9093CB affect the filter's service life compared to the D9093?

The NAG activated carbon sorbent layer adds a chemical change-out consideration alongside the standard P100 filter loading criteria. For P100 particulate: replace when breathing resistance increases noticeably or at your program's established interval. For the NAG sorbent: the activated carbon has a defined service capacity for acid gas adsorption; replace according to 3M's Technical Data Sheet guidance for the D9093CB at your specific acid gas concentration and exposure duration. In practice, the P100 filter loading often determines change-out frequency before NAG sorbent exhaustion in typical battery and plating environments — but document the NAG service schedule in your written respiratory protection program per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134(d)(3)(iii).

Where can I document the D9093CB properly in our written respiratory protection program?

Your written respiratory protection program (required under OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134(c)) should document the D9093CB as a P100 particulate filter with nuisance acid gas relief — NOT as an acid gas cartridge. Specify that the NAG sorbent is for nuisance-level exposure relief only and is not TC-23C approved for acid gas at or above the OSHA PEL. Document filter change-out criteria (breathing resistance for P100, service schedule for NAG sorbent per 3M TDS), the tasks for which the D9093CB is specified, the specific acid gas and concentration measurement confirming nuisance-level applicability, and the respirator facepiece sizes in use.
