Fires in the workplace are a very real concern when dealing with flammable materials such as paint and paint thinners. With the right combination of oxygen, fuel, and an ignition source, these materials can explode. Because of this risk, the intrinsically safe rating was created. It’s a design standard that ensures that products are unable to emit enough heat or energy to ignite combustible materials, even in instances of extreme product failure. The TR-800’s intrinsically safe rating guarantees that in normal and abnormal working conditions, your workers are safe and protected from workplace fires and combustion.

Painters are exposed to a variety of hazardous materials and toxins in the workplace. Older sites may have mold, fungi, or bacteria growing in the walls. They can come across bird and rodent droppings in the ceiling, or be exposed to dangerous materials, such as solvents, paint products, lead, and others. It’s critical that they are protected from the variety of toxic fumes and particles that they may come into contact with during work. The TR-800 is the best way to ensure that your painters are safe.

The TR-800 sets a new standard in worker safety and intrinsically safe protection. Rated at Division I, it gives you more options for more tasks. This customizability allows the TR-800 to be optimized for whatever job you have. You can choose from particulate filters or gas and vapor combination cartridges, which offer comprehensive protection in a wide range of environments. It also comes with multiple airflow rates available, so your painters can control the rate at which the TR-800 works. The kit is easily cleaned, and the disposable breathing tubes ensure that your workers are not spending time disinfecting or scrubbing equipment, allowing them to focus on the task at hand.

Protective equipment is paramount to keeping your employees safe and productive. With the 3M TR-800-PSK Versaflo Powered Air Purifying Respirator Assembly Painters Kit, you can rest easy knowing that your workers are safe.
