SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The 3M™ Versaflo™ M-Series headtops provide respiratory protection and are designed
to be used with an approved Air Delivery Unit (see Reference Leaflet) to provide
respiratory protection. These products meet the requirements of AS/NZS 1716
(Respiratory protective devices).
M-Series "Statement not required" Air is fed via a breathing tube from the belt mounted
Air Delivery Unit to the back of the headtop. The air flows over the top of the wearer's
head and down in front of the face. The M-Series headtops offer eye protection and
specific headtops within the range also offer head protection.

(IDLH).
Do not use in atmospheres containing less than 19.5% oxygen. (3M definition. Individual
countries may apply their own limits on oxygen deficiency. Seek advice if in doubt).
Do not use these products in oxygen or oxygen-enriched atmospheres.
These products do not supply oxygen.
Only use with the Air Filter Units, Regulators, spare parts and accessories listed in the
Product User Instructions and within the usage conditions given in the Technical
Specification.

•
The purity of the air supply is known.
•
The air supply is of a breathable quality to AS/NZS 1715.
^ Users should be clean-shaven where the respirator's face seal comes into
contact with the face. (M-100 and M-300 series).
^ These products meet the requirements of certain industrial eyewear standards
and with some models, certain industrial head protection standards. They do
not provide complete head, eye, and face protection from severe impact and
penetration and are not a substitute for good safety practices and engineering
controls.
Use only with recommended spectacles. Eye protectors against high speed particles worn
over standard ophthalmic spectacles may transmit impacts, thus creating a hazard to the
user. Contact your supplier.
If protection against high speed particles at extremes of temperature is required then the
selected eye-protector should be marked with the letter T immediately after the impact
letter, i.e. FT, BT or AT. If the impact letter is not followed by the letter T then the eye
protector shall only be used against high speed particles at room temperature.
In case of intended use in explosive atmospheres, contact 3M Technical Service.
^ Do not use in high heat environments above the recommended maximum
temperature.
^ Do not use the Head Neck and Shoulder cover or non-flame resistant face seals
and shrouds around high heat, sparks, and flames.
Materials which may come into contact with the wearer's skin are not known to cause
allergic reactions to the majority of individuals.
These products do not contain components made from natural rubber latex.
