2 About this Product
Overview
This measuring instrument checks the degree of adhesion when the user wears a respirator
(disposable or replaceable type). Measurements can be performed in a general indoor space.
Individuals have differently shaped faces. Many different types of respirators are sold by
respirator manufacturers, so select a respirator that is a good fit to your face when it is worn. To
fully draw out the performance of the respirator, the correct handling of the respirator, and
whether it adheres sufficiently against the face must be considered.
This product is used to measure the extent of adhesion between the face and the face contact
portion of the respirator when the respirator is worn If there is a gap between them, indoor dust
will leak into the respirator in accordance with the extent of this gap. With this product, the extent
of this leakage can be measured. By figuring out the best respirator attachment method to
minimize the extent of this leakage, respirator wearers themselves can fully draw out the
inherent performance of the respirator, or the effect of wearing the respirator.
This product uses a condensation nucleus counter (CNC) as a detector. It counts the number of
particles larger than a pre-specified size, existing in a given volume of air sampled. This product
automatically samples air and switches between the inside and outside measurements based on
preset conditions.
In measuring the extent of leakage (leakage percentage), first the air near the respirator is
sampled, and the particle concentration in the indoor air (outside the respirator) is measured.
Next, air is sampled from inside the respirator being worn and the particle concentration in this
air are measured. Then a leakage percentage is found from the ratio of these two values.
Quantification of the degree of adhesion is performed in this way.
This product is operated using a (pressure sensitive) touch panel, and is easy to operate thanks
to the color LCD. It can also be operated by connecting external input devices such as a USB
mouse and USB keyboard.
Measurement Principle

Counting the Number of Particles
The number of particles in the sampled air is counted by an instrument called a condensation
nucleus counter (CNC).
When particles (of dust) suspended in air are illuminated by light, the particles scatter the light
(Mie scattering). The optical system and electrical circuit are configured to ensure that each time
one particle passes through, an electrical signal pulse from the scattered light generates one
spike, enabling the number of particles passing through to be counted. At the same time, the
intensity (brightness) of the scattered light is strongly correlated with the size of the particles.
Generally speaking, only very weak scattered light is obtained from small particles under 0.3 μm
in size, making their detection difficult. Accordingly, a liquid (isopropyl alcohol in the case of this
product) is condensed onto the particles, enlarging their apparent size until even tiny particles on
the order of 20 nm can be detected from the scattered light. In other words, a CNC is an
instrument that performs counts by condensing vapor with tiny particles as the nucleus.


Quantification of the Degree of Adhesion of the Respirator
The method used to quantitatively assess the degree of adhesion between the respirator and the
face of the person wearing the respirator is as follows.
If there is a gap that particles can just pass through between the face of the wearer and the
respirator, depending on the size of this gap, particles outside the respirator will penetrate inside
the respirator during respiration. The degree of adhesion of the respirator to the face can be
expressed numerically by the ratio between the concentration of these particles in the room air
(outside the respirator) near the respirator, and the concentration inside the respirator.
With this product, this extent of adhesion is expressed as a leakage percentage, indicated by the
following formula.
 =


×100
: Leakage [%]
: Particle concentration outside the respirator (outside)
: Particle concentration inside the respirator (inward)
The fit factor/protection factor, an index showing the cleanliness of the air inside the respirator
with respect to the air outside the respirator, is found from the leakage percentage using the
following formula.
 =
100

: Fit Factor, Protection Factor
The overall leakage percentage is calculated based on the arithmetic mean leakage percentage
of a multiple number of measurements taken.
The overall fit factor/overall protection factor is determined by substituting the arithmetic-mean
leakage percentage of individual measurements (overall leakage percentage) into the above
formula (harmonic mean of fit factors/protection factors of individual measurements)

Precautions

Cautions When Carrying the Product
This measuring instrument is equipped with a detector and processor, so be careful not to bump
or swing it when moving or handling it.

Opening and Closing the Mirror
When opening and closing the mirror, support the main unit with one hand.

Connecting to the Respirator
If the tube joint (push-on ring type) is selected for the connection to the respirator, the respirator
used for measurement cannot be used for actual work. Use the test guide to check the degree of
adhesion of a respirator that will actually be worn (Fit Test without Fit Check, Training, or
respirator selection) (see p.22). Note that the test guide cannot be used in Fit Tests for respirator
selection. For replaceable respirators, use a sampling adapter and simulated face sold by
respirator manufacturers.

Handling the Tube Joint Attachment Tool
Be careful not to pierce your hand or fingers with the tip of the tube joint attachment tool. Do not
point the tip toward anyone. Otherwise, an injury could result.

Measurement
Before performing measurements, check via a medical interview by a physician that the subject
has no history of serious diseases of the respiratory organs or circulatory organs.
Instruct the subject that if they feel breathless when wearing the respirator, it is ok to remove it at
any time. In that case, the operator should stop the measurements immediately, and assist the
subject with removing the respirator.
Depending on the measurement environment, long-term exposure may adversely affect your
health. In this case, stop the measurements immediately, and leave the measurement
environment until you recover.

Handling the Sampling Tube
If this product is used for an extended period, condensation may develop inside the test guide
and the tube. Condensation will have an impact on the measurement results, so if water droplets
are evident inside a tube, dry it thoroughly, or replace it with a dry tube before performing
measurements.

Operating the Touch Panel
The touch panel in this product is pressure sensitive. To operate it, lightly touch one time only on
a single point on the screen.
A malfunction may result if you touch multiple places simultaneously. Also be careful not to touch
too hard, as you risk damaging the touch panel.

11

Face Contact
There are some parts, such as the test guide, tube joint, etc., that touch or may touch your face.
If you have any allergies, be sure to check that you are not allergic to any of the materials (see

3 Preparation
Types of Data and Measurement Results
Data used for measurement include People, Respirator, Operator, and Protocol (Fit Test
settings). These can be created using PC software and stored on a PC, transferred to a
database file on a USB flash drive, or used in stand-alone measurements with this main unit.
These types of data can also be created with the main unit. However, deletion of protocol data,
as well as the editing or deletion of other types of data, can only be performed using PC
software.
These types of data can be created without using a USB flash drive, but they cannot be stored.
In terms of the measurement modes, measurement results from the Fit Test mode, Fit Check
mode, and Daily Check mode are saved in the USB flash drive database file. The saved
measurement results can be transferred to the PC using PC software, for use in creating and
printing reports.
These measurements can be performed without using a USB flash drive, but the measurement
results cannot be stored.
If the measurements are performed from the PC software, the measurement results are saved
on the PC.
Preparation of the Alcohol
With this product, isopropyl alcohol (2-propanol) is used for the measurements.
Purchase these separately.
Be sure to read the SDS before use.
Turn the alcohol cartridge counterclockwise to release the lock, and
then remove it from the alcohol fill case.
Keep the alcohol cartridge clean after
it is removed.
Otherwise, a malfunction could result.
Use high purity reagent grade isopropyl alcohol, or one with a purity of at least 99.5 %.
A malfunction could result if a lower quality is used.
An alcohol wick is inserted into the alcohol cartridge at the time of shipment. Dry or replace the alcohol
wick if the measurement time shortens or the wick becomes dirty and changes color (see p.60).

14
Inject alcohol up to the line at the bottom of the
alcohol fill case. Insert the alcohol cartridge,
and turn it clockwise until you feel a click.
Leave it as is for 2 to 3 minutes.
The alcohol will permeate the alcohol wick inside the alcohol cartridge.
Check that the main unit is unplugged. Remove the storage cap from
the alcohol cartridge insertion port (see p.12).
Remove the alcohol cartridge from the alcohol
fill case. Shake it gently to remove any excess
alcohol, and then attach it by inserting it into the
alcohol cartridge insertion port.
Attach the storage cap that has been removed from the main unit
to the alcohol fill case.
If you overfill it, the alcohol might overflow when
the alcohol cartridge is re-inserted.
If a new or sufficiently dry alcohol wick is used, it will absorb more alcohol than when continuously
used, and there will be almost no alcohol in the alcohol fill case. In this case, remove the alcohol
cartridge, and re-permeate it by replenishing with additional alcohol.

15
After using the main unit, check that the power is OFF.
Then remove the storage cap from the alcohol fill case.
Remove the alcohol cartridge, and store it
by inserting it into the alcohol fill case.
Attach the storage cap to the alcohol cartridge insertion port.
Do not leave the alcohol cartridge inserted into the main unit
as is when not in use or during shipment.
Otherwise, the alcohol might seep inside, leading to malfunctions.
