The LIFE SAVER respirator effectively prevents workers from being exposed to dust, and by using an electric fan to assist breathing, it reduces breathlessness and prevents dust from entering .
The Powered Air Purifying Respirator(P-PAPR) removes harmful dusts by an electric fan and filtration material, and supplies clean air to the wearer. Unlike the dust mask that sucks clean air of outside the work environment with the worker's own lung power, it is characterized by low exhalation resistance and very easy breathing due to the ventilation by the electric fan. In addition, the air blown by the electric fan creates a pressure difference between the inside and outside of the face shield, making it difficult for external dust to enter and providing high protection performance.
Tips on choosing THE POWERED AIR-PURIFYING RESPIRATOR(P-PAPR)
- Points for selection
- Use the appropriate type for the type of hazardous substance.
*Do NOT use PAPR in place where the oxygen concentration is less than 18% or where harmful gas is present.
- Target work
- Work in places where there is a risk of health problems due to dust.
- Applications
- Various types of dusts such as welding(gas, electric and TIG welding), grinding, cutting, grinder, crushing, casting, furnace, handling powder of medicines and foods in clean room, etc.
Based on our core technology of controlling light, which we have been accumulating for over 100 years since our foundation, we have been developing industrial safety eyewear, including laser safety glasses, and various types of protective equipment.
Also, using our filter technology built up over 30 years, we have been pioneering the industry by developing dust masks and powered air-purifying respirators and continue to present new products to the market.
Moving forward, it is Yamamoto Kogaku's hope to support not only the bodily safety of workers but all aspects of people's lifestyles for safer, more comfortable living environments.
-
- Light control technology
- At worksites with welding, laser processing, and other such jobs, intense, yet invisible light like UV rays and infrared rays are emitted from high-output equipment in high amounts, harming workers' eyes. Yamamoto Kogaku products absorb, reflect, permeate, and polarize particular light and wavelengths for optional and various aspects of control, in turn offering workers safety and heightened performance.
-
- Coating technology
- Lens coating is a deciding factor in glasses functionality including work efficiency and vision safety. From the addition of fundamental anti-fogging and stain resistance abilities in lenses to offering reflection rates, wavelength attributes, and other light-related abilities, a variety of possibilities unfold relating to the environment of use and function requirements.
-
- Safety structure design
- Yamamoto Kogaku is the only manufacturer in Japan to consolidate in-house lens development grounded in specialized optical function and frame design based on ergonomics showcasing the full extent of the lens' capabilities as well as the consequent production and sale.
We offer safety products in line with numerous standards, including JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards), ANSI (American National Standards Institute), EN (Europäische Norm, or European Standard), and CE (Conformité Européenne, or European Conformity) marking.
-
- Filter technology
- Our high-performance filter technology, providing high filtration rate and low ventilation resistance, is employed in numerous products, such as powered air-purifying respirator PAPR, dust masks with respiratory assist devices, and disposable dust masks, which passed the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare's type certification (National Assay) and allows for a clear field of vision and safe breathing conditions for workers.
