Abstract

Background and Aim: Determining the degree of conformity of respirator CARTRIDGEs with the accepted standards is very important for ensuring their respiratory protection efficiency. The aim of this study was to determine the degree of conformity of ORGANIC VAPOR-respirator CARTRIDGEs used in different petrochemical companies with the EN 14387:2004 standard.Materials and Methods: In the first phase of the study, the respirator CARTRIDGEs used in petrochemical complexes were identified and their specifications obtained from their manufacturers and the relevant technical catalogues. In the second phase, 3 samples of each of the CARTRIDGE models were chosen and tested according to the EN 14387:2004 standard. An instrument was especially designed for measuring the breakthrough time of the CARTRIDGEs. Results: The results showed that the minimum and maximum breakthrough times of CARTRIDGEs were 29 and 142 minutes, respectively. From all the 10 different CARTRIDGE models tested, one had a service life of lower than the minimum standard breakthrough time of 70 minutes.Conclusion: Considering the existence of a non-standard type of CARTRIDGE among the samples studied, it is essential to launch a program aiming at ensuring the conformity of CARTRIDGE efficiency with the respective standards. Such a program should be developed and implemented by such responsible organizations as the Institute of Standard and Industrial Research of Iran and the Center for Occupational Health and Safety Research and Training of Iran.
