Main Features
The 3M™ 6000 Series Reusable Half Masks are proven to be
simple to handle and comfortable to the wearer. The new
exhalation port provides increased durability, easy cleaning and
reduced breathing resistance which helps to increase your comfort.
Available in three sizes, all masks have the 3M bayonet connection
system allowing connection to a broad range of twin lightweight
filters to protect against gases, vapours and particulates depending
on your individual needs.
The main features include:
Reusable, low maintenance half mask.•
Soft, lightweight elastomeric respirator ensures comfort during•
long periods of work.
Flexible System (gas & vapour and / or particulate filters plus•
Supplied-Air option).
Twin filter design provides lower breathing resist ance, a more•
balanced fit, and improves field of vision.
Cost eective replacement filters.•
Safe, secure Bayonet filter attachment system.•
Easy and secure fitting.•
3 sizes (small - 6100, medium - 6200, large - 6300)•
Face piece weight: 82 grams.•
Applications
The 6000 Series Respirators can be used with a variety of
dierent filter options:
Gas and Vapour Filters only: The filters generally protect
against either single or multiple contaminant type(s).
The• 6000 Series filters fit directly onto the respirator except for
the 6098 and 6099.
Particulate filters only: These filters provide protection against
solid and non-volatile liquid particles.
The• 2000 Series particulate filters fit directly onto the
respirator.
The• 5000 Series particulate filters may be used on their own
with platform 603 and 501 retainers.
The 6035 & 6038 are encapsulated P3 R filters, which fit•
directly onto the respirator.
Combination of Gas & Vapour and Particulate filters:
The• 5000 Series particulate filters can be used with 6000
Series Gas and Vapour filters using 501 retainers excluding the
6035, 6038, 6096, 6098 and 6099.
The 6096 has a Particulate filter media integrated with the Gas•
and Vapour cartridge.
The 6038 is an encapsulated particulate filter with a layer of•
carbon for low capacity gas protection.
Supplied-Air mode: All filters can be used with S-200 Supplied
Air Regulator except for the P1 R (5911) and P2 R (5925, 2125
and 2128) filters, and 6098 and 6099.

Approvals
The 3M 6000 Series Respirators and 6000/5000/2000 Series
Filters have been shown to meet the Basic Safety Requirements
under Article 10 and 11 of the European Community Directive
89/686/EEC, and are thus CE-marked. These products were
examined at the design stage by: BSI Product Services, Kitemark
House, Maylands Avenue, Hemel Hempstead, Herts, HP2 4SQ,

Fitting Instructions
Before assigning any respirator to be worn in a contaminated
area, we recommend that a qualitative or quantitative fit check
be performed before entering the workplace.
Fitting instructions must be followed each time the respirator is worn.
Place the respirator over the mouth and nose, then pull the1.
harness over the crown of the head.
Take the bottom straps in both hands, place them at the back2.
of the neck and hook them together.
Tighten the top straps first by pulling on ends to achieve a3.
comfortable and secure fit.
Tighten bottom straps using either front or rear adjustments.4.
(Strap tension may be decreased by pushing out on back side
of buckles).
Fit Check
Perform a positive and/or negative pressure fit check each time
the respirator is donned.
Positive pressure Face Fit check (all Filters except 3M™
6035, 6038 / 2000 Series Filters).
Place the palm of the hand over the exhalation valve cover1.
and exhale gently.
If the respirator bulges slightly and no air leakage between2.
the face and the respirator is detected, a proper fit has been
achieved.
If air leakage is detected, reposition the respirator on the3.
face and/or readjust the tension of the strap to eliminate the
leakage.
Repeat the above face fit check.4.
If you cannot achieve a proper fit, do not enter the5.
contaminated area. See your supervisor.
Negative pressure face fit check (3M™ 6035, 6038 / 2000
Series Filters)
Push the filter cover down (6035, 6038) or press your thumbs1.
into the central indentation of the filters (2000 series), inhale
gently and hold your breath for five or ten seconds.
If the respirator collapses slightly, a proper fit has been2.
achieved.
If air leakage is detected, reposition the respirator on the3.
face and/or readjust the tension of the straps to eliminate the
leakage.
Repeat the above face fit check.4.
If you cannot achieve a proper fit, do not enter the5.
contaminated area. See your supervisor.
