3M 7000002353 Papr Breathing Tube Respiratory

Product Description

The 3M 7000002353 is a powered air breathing tube designed to connect the air source with a compatible respiratory headtop in a Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR) or supplied-air respirator system. It ensures clean, filtered air reaches the headtop with unrestricted airflow throughout the delivery path. The tube is NIOSH approved when used as part of a complete, properly configured respiratory protection system. Installation and use is typically performed by safety professionals, industrial hygienists, or trained technicians operating in environments requiring respiratory protection compliance.

This breathing tube is intended for use in industrial, manufacturing, healthcare, or hazardous-environment applications where a PAPR or supplied-air system is required. It serves as the flexible air delivery link between the blower or air delivery unit and the headtop assembly. The tube is compatible with certain 3M respiratory headtops and air delivery units as specified by 3M system configuration guidelines. Refer to the complete system documentation to confirm proper pairing before use.

Key Features

• Connects the air source directly to the headtop for reliable, unobstructed airflow delivery
• Quick-attachment design allows fast connection between headgear and the PAPR air filter unit
• NIOSH approved when used as a component within a complete compliant respiratory system
• Engineered for use with compatible 3M respiratory headtops and air delivery units

Compatibility

Compatible with certain 3M respiratory headtops and air delivery units. Refer to the complete 3M respiratory system documentation to verify headtop and air delivery unit compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

This component should be installed by a qualified safety professional or trained respirator program administrator familiar with NIOSH-approved respiratory system configurations. Before connecting or disconnecting the breathing tube, ensure the air delivery unit is powered off and depressurized. Verify all fittings are fully seated and locked before placing the system into service. Follow the complete system manufacturer instructions and applicable OSHA respiratory protection standards (29 CFR 1910.134) for fit, use, and maintenance requirements.
