What type of respirator is a Filtering Facepiece Respirator?

  1. Non-filtering respirator

  2. Powered air-purifying respirator

  3. Filtering mask

  4. A type of non-powered APR with a particulate filter as an integral part of the facepiece

The correct answer is: A type of non-powered APR with a particulate filter as an integral part of the facepiece

A Filtering Facepiece Respirator is a type of non-powered APR with a particulate filter as an integral part of the facepiece. This means that the filter is built into the mask itself, providing protection against particulate matter in the air. Unlike a powered air-purifying respirator (B) that uses a battery-powered blower to force air through the filter, a Filtering Facepiece Respirator relies on the wearer's breathing to draw air through the filter. It is important for pesticide applicators to use the appropriate type of respirator to ensure proper protection against pesticide exposure.
