This standard establishes a system for the marking of air-purifying canisters and cartridges for use in respiratory protective equipment. The primary means of identification shall be properly-worded labels, supplemented by an identifying colour or colours.

The standard wording that should appear on each canister or cartridge label is reproduced. |
