Abstract |
Description and results, with comments, of approval tests carried out on 48 models of dust masks marketed in France in 1973. The tests covered physical (pressure drop, efficiency and clogging) and physiological features (decreased field of vision, dead space). A separate data sheet gives the results obtained by each of the 15 masks which passed the tests. Tests on the impermeability of facepieces will be the subject of a subsequent communication. |
