Respirator Fit Testing
Respirators are often mandated on the job to protect an employee from inhaling irritants and hazardous materials, such as fumes, gasses, and dust. Fit testing is outlined by OH&S and CSA Standard Z94 as a necessary procedure for those who require a respirator on the job.
Aceso Medical uses the most innovative quantitative fit testing technology to ensure a proper fit for your employees.
For optimal performance, respirator fit testing must be done every two years or if there is a weight fluctuation of over 15-20 pounds.
Qualitative Testing
We provide sodium saccharine or Bitrex based qualitative fit testing. This is only recommended for N95 and low-risk half-mask respirators usage.
Quantitative Testing
Using controlled negative pressure testing, our quantitative fit testing is the quickest and most efficient test for SCBAs, full face, ands half masks respirators. We recommend quantitative testing for employees with high risk exposure.
