OVERVIEW

Advanced Respiratory Protection for Industrial Applications

The 3M 2097 P100 Particulate Filter is a high-performance respiratory component designed to provide reliable protection in demanding industrial environments. Engineered to filter out 99.97% of airborne particles, this filter is NIOSH-approved for environments containing certain oil and non-oil based particulates. It is an essential safety consumable for professionals engaged in metalworking, construction, and chemical handling where particulate matter poses a respiratory hazard.

One of the standout features of the 2097 filter is its integrated layer of activated carbon, which offers relief from nuisance levels of organic vapors. This makes it particularly effective in settings where odors, while below the permissible exposure limit (PEL), can cause discomfort or distraction to the worker. The filter is compatible with a wide range of 3M Half and Full Facepieces, including the 6000, 7000, and FF-400 series, utilizing a simple bayonet connection system for quick and secure attachment.

Durability and versatility are at the core of the 3M 2097 design. The filter media is encased in a protective outer layer that resists abrasion and moisture, ensuring consistent performance even in humid or rough conditions. Whether your team is involved in torch cutting, metal pouring, or general fabrication, these filters provide the necessary defense against hazardous dusts, fumes, and mists. By maintaining a low breathing resistance, they also help reduce worker fatigue during long shifts, promoting better compliance and safety on the job site.

Key Industrial Benefits:

  • High Efficiency: Captures 99.97% of particles, meeting strict P100 standards.
  • Odor Mitigation: Reduces distraction caused by unpleasant organic odors.
  • Broad Compatibility: Fits standard 3M bayonet-style masks used across many industries.
  • Cost-Effective: Long service life reduces the frequency of replacements.

FAQ

P100 is a NIOSH classification indicating that the filter captures at least 99.97% of airborne particles and is strongly resistant to oil (P = Oil Proof).

These filters offer relief from nuisance organic vapors but are not suitable for spray painting where vapor concentrations exceed permissible exposure limits. You would need a dedicated organic vapor cartridge for that.

The 2097 filter features a bayonet connection and is compatible with 3M Half and Full Facepieces in the 6000, 7000, and FF-400 series.

Filters should be replaced when they become damaged, soiled, when breathing resistance increases significantly, or if you can smell or taste contaminants.

Yes, the 3M 2097 filters have a flat, flexible 'pancake' design that is low-profile, making them ideal for use under most standard welding helmets.

Yes, the 2097 filters contain a carbon layer that provides relief against nuisance levels of organic vapors and ozone, helping to reduce unpleasant smells while welding.

Yes, P100 filters are excellent for capturing the zinc oxide fumes generated when welding galvanized steel, protecting you from metal fume fever.

The 2097 has a flame-resistant outer casing, making it suitable for welding and torch cutting applications where sparks are present.
