The 3M™ Organic Vapor Service Life Indicator Cartridge 6001i incorporates 3M™ Service Life Indicator technology to help answer the question that every respirator user must answer — “when should I change my cartridges?”

When used in appropriate environments, the 3M™ Service Life Indicator can provide a simple, visual tool that can help users determine when to change their cartridges and provide confidence in protection (See User Instructions to determine if the indicator is appropriate for your work environment). It’s designed to indicate service life based on individual exposure and respiratory use patterns, allowing the user to optimize cartridge use for their specific needs. The 3M™ Service Life Indicator is covered by a peel-back label to help protect it from overspray and debris.

The 3M Service Life Indicator can be used to complement your current cartridge change schedule. You must change your cartridge at the normally scheduled interval or when the ESLI indicates, whichever occurs first. In some cases you can use the ESLI as a primary method to determine cartridge change, replacing your current change schedule method. To find out if the 3M Service Life Indicator may be used as the primary method for determining your cartridge change-out schedule:

1) Perform exposure monitoring to quantify the organic vapor exposure levels in your workplace. Visit 3M.com/PPESafety for information on 3M™ Organic Vapor Monitors.

2) Enter the monitoring results in the 3M™ Select and Service Life Software (3M.com/ServiceLifeSoftware). If the ESLI is not applicable as a primary method, it may still be used to complement your current cartridge change schedule.

The 3M™ Organic Vapor Service Life Indicator Cartridge 6001i helps provide organic vapor protection in a variety of environments. The cartridge may be used for vapor concentrations up to 10 times the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) with half facepieces or 50 times PEL with quantitatively fit tested full facepieces. Not for use in environments that are immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH). Recommended applications for the cartridge include assembly, batch-charging, change-overs, chemical dispensing, cleaning, and seal coating. Industries in which this cartridge is commonly used include chemicals, fiberglass manufacturing, and transportation. See User Instructions to determine if the indicator is appropriate for your work environment.

This organic vapor cartridge works with 3M™ Half Facepieces 6000, 6500, 7500 and full face 6000, FF-400 and 7800 Series with bayonet holders. The cartridge is NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) approved for environments containing certain organic vapors. The cartridge has been assigned the color code “black” in the NIOSH system.

Breathing organic vapors can pose a risk to your health. NIOSH, a Federal government regulatory agency, has tested and approved the 3M™ Organic Vapor Service Life Indicator Cartridge 6001i to help reduce exposure to certain organic vapors.
