Title 42 Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 84 requires that respirators submitted for evaluation
against the terms of the Standard must be accompanied by data that
demonstrate the respirator under evaluation meets or exceeds the performance requirements set forth therein. Once
approved, the quality assurance requirements specified in Subpart E of the
Standard require an ongoing effort by the approval holder for the purpose of
assuring not only the material aspects, but the performance level of the
approved product. To facilitate both of these activities, the current
Standard Test Procedures used by NIOSH/NPPTL are posted here according to
the following categories. Accordingly, some procedures may be listed
in more than one category.
Current Air-Purifying Respirator Test Procedures
Current Air-Supplied Respirator
Test Procedures
Current Procedures related
to Facepiece Fit (Air-Purifying and Air-Supplied
Respirators)
