The Cole-Parmer Respirator Fit Test Kit, Bitter, meets OSHA requirements for qualitative fit testing of respirators. These kits test the face-to-respirator seal for both particulate and gas/vapor respirators with a particulate prefilter. Easy-to-use kits provide a consistent environment for testing fit, ensuring reliable results that comply with OSHA standards. The process begins with a sensitivity test by spraying a dilute version of the test solution into the hood without a respirator to ensure the wearer can detect the taste. While wearing a respirator, a sweet or bitter test solution is sprayed into the hood. If no taste is detected, the respirator fit is acceptable; otherwise, a second test is performed after readjustment. Repeated failure may indicate the need for a different size or model of respirator.
