TEST OF EXPENDABLE DUST RESPIRATOR, E5

Abstract

Preliminary tests indicate that the expendable respirator E5, provides adequate protection against nuisance dusts with no greater resistance to breathing than is expected of any practical respirator. Limited observations during use indicate that the respirator is reasonably comfortable and that its dust-removing efficiency is adequate to eliminate all irritation and discomfort associated with breathing dust-laden air.
