Product Details:

The Mas-Q-Check was developed by Palas to subject protective masks to a quick, simple and yet meaningful test before use as per EN149 or EN143. The mask is placed on the test head before use. Using a high-resolution aerosol spectrometer, the particle contamination (size and quantity) is measured, which is able to detect efficiencies in the size range of viruses and bacteria and displays the degree of protection of the protective mask.

The degree of protection provided by a respirator depends on the filtration effect of the mask material as well as the correct fit on the head. Leakage can occur (i.e. air passes the material and enters behind the mask unfiltered), which affects the protective effect.

With the Mas-Q-Check, safe on-site testing of respiratory masks is therefore possible automatically within 1 minute. Two versions are available: Mas-Q-Check Basic with a volume flow of 10 l/min or of 95 l/min as per EN149 or EN143.
