A

Air purifying respirators

132
Q

What are surgical masks used for in the respiratory program?

A

Should NEVER be used as an air-purifying respirator. MEDICAL and DENTAL use only. They do not provide protection agains air contaminants

133
Q

A

False. They are used for CBRNE only

134
Q

Used to protect against an aerosol containing a volatile organic solvent and adds another level of protection

A

Pre-filters

135
Q

Protects the user by supplying oxygen to ensure maintenance of life and the the environment is immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH)

A

Atmosphere Supplying Respirators

136
Q

Under what circumstances are Atmosphere Supplying Respirators used?

A

When an environment is Immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) or the contaminant has no warning property.

137
Q

What are the 3 types of Air-line respirators?

A

Demand
Pressure Demand
Continuous Flow

138
Q

This type of air-line respirator maintains continuous positive pressure within the face-piece, thus preventing contaminant leakage into the face piece

A

Pressure Demand

139
Q

This type of air-line respirator supplies air to the user on demand (inhalation) which creates a negative pressure within the face piece

A

Demand

140
Q

This type of air-line respirator provides a continuous positive pressure and flow of air within any of the breathing zone containment, thus preventing contaminant leakage into the containment.

A

Continuous Flow

141
Q

This respirator consists of a face-piece, helmet, hood, a breathing tube and a source of air or oxygen all of which is carried by the wearer

A

Self-contained breathing apparatuses (SCBAs)

142
Q

What are the two categories of SCBAs?

A

Closed-circuit (Rebreathing)

Open-circuit

143
Q

Exhaled air is expelled to the atmosphere and air is provided to the user from a compressed air cylinder

A

Open circuit SCBA

144
Q

Carbon dioxide in exhaled breath is removed prior to re-breathing.

A

Closed-circuit SCBA

145
Q

What are the different types of Open-circuit SCBAs?

A
  1. Demand
  2. Pressure demand
  3. Emergency Escape Devices
  4. Emergency Escape Breathing Device (EEBD)
146
Q

This type of open-circuit SCBA must never be used for entry into a hazardous atmosphere

A

Emergency Escape Breathing Device (EEBD)

147
Q

What is the measurement of iodine to water and time for the sanitation of the respirator face piece?

A

2 minutes in a water solution of iodine (0.8 ml of Iodine per L of water)

148
Q

What temperature of water is used to sanitize a face piece?

A

110 - 122 F

149
Q

What are the storage requirements of respirators?

A
  1. Place respirator in a clean plastic bag or other container and seal
  2. Zip lock plastic bag is preferred
  3. Ensure the respirator is completely dry before sealing to prevent mildew
  4. Store FLAT in a clean, dry, uncontaminated area without crowding which may distort the respirator face view
150
Q

Respirator testing that may performed by using Isomyl acetate (banana oil), Saccharin mist, and Irritant smoke (Preferred method)

A

Qualitative Fit Testing

151
Q

This type of respirator fit testing can only be performed by shore activities

A

Quantitative Fit Testing

152
