Serial number GB 6221-86 Descriptors [Primary] China, airline respirators, equipment testing [Secondary] comment on standard, personal protective equipment, standard Subject category Chemical safety Abstract This standard (effective 1 Dec. 1986) describes tests for assessing some performance criteria of airline respirators. They include: leakage, breathing resistance, air-tightness of the low-pressure part, working pressure of the input air valve, soft tube or mid-pressure soft tube, connecting part of the soft tube, and air supply equipment. A commentary is appended which outlines the main tests necessary for evaluating the efficiency of airline respirators. They comprise tests described in this standard (GB 6221-86) and also those in GB 2891.1-82, GB 2891.2-82, GB 2891.4-82, GB 2891.5-82 and GB 2891.6-82; and cover testing of leakage, effective dead space, field of vision, air-tightness of air valves and air resistance.
