Hazard

The total filtration capacity of the mask is insufficient (measured mean values: as low as 67%). Consequently, the product does not fulfil the health and safety requirements; thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect. The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment Regulation nor with the European standard EN 149.
