Mask's low level of breathing resistance

Wearer fatigue is not an issue, says JSP, when its disposable Typhoon valve, fold-flat mask is worn. The special overflow valve system creates minimal breathing resistance and reduces internal heat, CO2 and moisture build-up, allowing the mask to be worn for long periods.

The mask offers close, secure fitting and clear vision, while being convenient and easy to use. The valve is designed to allow for a large volume of air to escape through a diaphragm, resulting in minimal breathing resistance and low retention of CO2, heat and moisture.

A 360° comfort foam area around the inside of the mask provides a good fit and prevents misting, aided by a welded nose piece which prevents irritation and mis-shaping.

A latex-free adjustable strap that enables the mask to be fitted to all head sizes and shapes.

The Typhoon conforms to N149:2001+A1:2009 and comes in individually packaged models. The 315 FFP1 performs with a minimum efficiency of 80%, with a protection factor of up to 4 for low risk jobs.

The most efficient of the range, the Typhoon 335 FFP3 is designed for tasks where a protection factor of up to 20 is required and offers in excess of 99% efficiency, protecting against fine mists, fumes and dust.
