3M 7100096482 Papr Supplied Air Complete System

Product Description

The 3M 7100096482 is a Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR) and Supplied Air Respirator (SAR) complete system designed to deliver clean, filtered air to the wearer via an integrated hood assembly. This unit ships with a lithium battery power source, making it a self-contained solution for environments where continuous respiratory protection is required. The system is suited for industrial, remediation, and hazardous-material work where air quality cannot be assured by filtering facepiece respirators alone. Licensed safety professionals and industrial hygienists typically specify this equipment for job sites with airborne particulate, chemical vapor, or oxygen-deficiency hazards.

This complete PAPR system is appropriate for use in commercial and industrial settings including construction, painting, spray application, asbestos or lead abatement, confined space entry, and chemical handling operations. The hood design accommodates workers who cannot achieve a seal with traditional tight-fitting respirators due to facial hair or other fit limitations. The lithium battery pack supports extended shift use without tethering to a compressed-air supply, making it practical for mobile or remote worksites where a fixed air source is unavailable.

Key Features

• Complete system configuration — includes PAPR unit, hood, and lithium battery pack ready for deployment
• Hood-style interface eliminates the need for a tight face seal, expanding wearability across more users
• Lithium battery power source supports untethered, mobile respiratory protection
• Powered air delivery provides positive-pressure airflow to the hood for continuous protection
• Packaged quantity of one complete system per unit for straightforward procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM complete-system offering for powered air-purifying respirator applications where a hood-based PAPR or supplied air respirator configuration is required. Confirm compatibility with specific replacement filters, batteries, or accessories by referencing 3M documentation for the RBE-L10 series.

Installation Notes

This system should be fitted, inspected, and placed into service by a qualified safety professional or industrial hygienist in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 respiratory protection program requirements. Before use, inspect all hose connections, the hood assembly, and the battery charge level per the manufacturer guidelines. Never modify the airflow path or substitute non-approved filter cartridges, as doing so may void protection ratings. Battery charging and storage should follow the lithium battery handling procedures provided in the product documentation.
