Protection factors (P2 filters)

The following nominal and country-specific protection factors apply to P2 particulate filters when correctly used with compatible 3M reusable masks:

• With a half mask: Country-specific protection factor (FPN 12; UK/I FPA 10; Germany FPA 10; Italy FPA 10).
• With a full face mask: Country-specific protection factor (FPN 16; UK/I FPA 10; Germany FPA 15; Italy FPA 15).

FPN (nominal protection factor) is derived from the maximum allowed total inward leakage defined in the relevant European standards for a given class of respiratory protective device. This may not represent the level of protection achievable in actual workplace conditions; many countries apply assigned protection factors.

Service life and storage

• Storage life: 5 years from date of manufacture when stored under the conditions described on the packaging (general for these filters).
• Important note: The defined storage life is indicative and represents a maximum value subject to external factors that cannot be controlled. It must not be interpreted as a guarantee.

Cleaning and maintenance

• The filter must not be immersed in water or any liquid during cleaning.
• The plastic components of the filters can be cleaned with 3M Face Seal Cleaner 105.

Use limitations and replacement

• Replace particulate filters when breathing becomes uncomfortable, or when the filter becomes dirty or physically damaged.
• The filters must only be used with 3M masks equipped with bayonet-type connections.
• Always check the expiry date before use.
• Additional use limitations are provided with the products and must be observed.
• Effective respiratory protection is only achieved if the equipment is selected, fitted and worn correctly for the entire duration of exposure.

Applications and use cases

The 3M 5925 Particulate Filter P2 R is intended for use wherever protection against solid and liquid particles is required at P2 R performance level in line with EN 143:2021, using compatible 3M reusable half and full face masks with bayonet connection. Specific applications and environments depend on the risk assessment and applicable national guidelines.
