System Description

The 3M™ Speedglas™ Heavy-Duty Welding Helmet G5-01 is a respirator used for welding and grinding applications. The G5-01 is a loose-fitting
respirator and is designed to be used with certain 3M™ Breathing Tubes and Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) units or Supplied Air (SA)
devices to form a respiratory protection system. In addition, the 3M™ Speedglas™ Heavy-Duty Welding Helmet G5-01 meets the test requirements
of certain eye and face protection standards. See "Approvals" section of these User Instructions for additional information.
The 3M™ Speedglas™ Heavy-Duty Welding Helmet G5-01 respiratory welding helmet has a wide-view flip-up clear visor, a flip up/flip down
welding shield that may contain a passive shaded welding filter or an auto-darkening filter (ADF), fully adjustable ratchet head suspension, and a
flame resistant faceseal. Two integral air deflectors allow the user to position the incoming airflow near the top or bottom of the face and also toward
or away from the lens for wearing comfort. Several accessories are also available including large neck covers, large head covers, a full shroud
configuration to take the Assigned Protection Factor (APF) from 25x to 1000x, and a task light.
Properly selected, used, and maintained respirators help protect against certain airborne contaminants by reducing airborne concentrations in the
wearer's breathing zone below the Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL). It is essential to follow all instructions and government regulations regarding
the use of this product, which includes wearing the complete respirator system during all times of exposure, in order for the product to help
protect the wearer. Misuse of respirators may result in overexposure to contaminants and lead to serious bodily injury, sickness or death.
