The 3400 series represents KleenGuard's updated cup respirator platform relative to the 3300 series, with the RA3415V designation indicating the valved configuration in a regular-fit cup. Available in a 10-respirator box, the RA3415V is currently out of stock on Amazon; pricing reflects the comparable 3300V (54626) listing at $22.89 per 10-box. For in-stock N95 alternatives, see the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/disposable-respirators\"\u003edisposable respirators collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RA3415V molded cup uses a rigid shell that maintains filter media position and face standoff regardless of humidity and breathing load — the standard structural benefit of cup-style over flat-fold N95 designs. The exhalation valve routes exhaled air out of the cup without passing through the N95 filter media, reducing exhalation breathing resistance and internal heat and moisture accumulation during sustained wear. A two-strap headband distributes retention across crown and nape; an adjustable noseclip provides the nose-bridge seal required for proper N95 fit. The 3400 series cup geometry represents KleenGuard's current-generation design versus the 3300 series, with refinements to seal surface and interior comfort relative to the earlier RA3315V platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompliance and Ratings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe KleenGuard 3400 RA3415V is NIOSH-approved under 42 CFR Part 84, N95 class. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 and 29 CFR 1926.103 medical evaluation, fit test, and written respiratory protection program requirements apply before workers use tight-fitting N95 respirators. The exhalation valve is a compliance consideration: exhaled air is not filtered through the N95 media, making the RA3415V inappropriate for environments requiring source control of exhaled particles — surgical settings, aseptic manufacturing, and some food processing environments where valved respirators are prohibited. Confirm that valved N95 respirators are permitted under the site respiratory protection program before specifying the RA3415V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePerformance Assessment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exhalation valve reduces exhalation breathing resistance — operationally significant for workers performing sustained moderate to heavy physical labor in warm or humid environments where exhalation heat buildup is a fatigue and comfort factor. Inhalation filtration is unaffected by the valve; N95 efficiency applies on inhalation through the cup media. The 3400 series cup platform addresses the 3300 series' fit geometry with an updated design, though the filtration standard is identical between generations: both are NIOSH N95 under 42 CFR Part 84. The RA3415V is currently out of stock with no Amazon price listed — this product is imported to maintain catalog coverage and should be treated as a back-order or future restocking item.
