North BP1002 Facepiece Backpack Adapter Plastic

Product Description

The NORTH BP1002 is a plastic backpack-style adapter designed to interface a half-mask facepiece with a supplied-air or backpack-mounted breathing system. This adapter serves as a structural connection point between the facepiece and the air supply assembly, maintaining a secure and reliable seal path during use. It is constructed entirely of plastic, offering a lightweight and corrosion-resistant option for environments where metal hardware would be problematic. The part measures 7 inches wide, 9 inches long, and 4.5 inches high, making it a compact but functional component in a respiratory protection assembly. Safety professionals and industrial hygienists specify this type of adapter for use in hazardous atmosphere environments where NIOSH-approved respiratory equipment is required.

This adapter is intended for use with compatible NORTH half-mask facepieces as a replacement or spare part. Typical installation scenarios include industrial facilities, construction sites, chemical handling operations, and confined space entry applications where supplied-air or backpack respirator systems are deployed. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both original equipment installation and field replacement by safety equipment technicians or qualified personnel responsible for respiratory protection program maintenance.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified person familiar with respiratory protection equipment and the requirements of the applicable respiratory protection program. Before servicing or replacing any facepiece adapter, ensure the air supply to the system is fully shut off and pressure is relieved. Verify the adapter seating and any locking mechanisms are fully engaged before returning the equipment to service. Respiratory protection equipment must be fit-tested and inspected in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 or applicable site safety standards.
