Bitrex Fit Test Kit | Draeger

Complete qualitative fit test kit with Bitrex solution for testing tight-fitting respirators. Includes all components needed for effective fit checks per regulatory standards.

The Bitrex Fit Test Kit is a comprehensive system designed to help ensure the proper fit of respiratory protective equipment, particularly tight-fitting respirators. This qualitative fit testing method uses Bitrex, a bitter-tasting substance, to detect leaks and verify whether the mask or respirator forms a sufficient seal against the wearer’s face.

Key Features:

• Bitrex Solution: A safe, non-toxic bitter substance that is used in the test to simulate the presence of contaminants. If the wearer can taste it, it means there is a gap or leak in the seal.

• Simple and Fast: The kit allows for quick testing of respirators, ensuring the right fit for safety standards in just a few minutes.

• Complete Kit: Includes everything needed for the test—Bitrex solution, nebulizer, spray pump, and other necessary components for conducting the test.

• Compatible with Various Respirators: Suitable for testing a wide range of tight-fitting half-face and full-face respirators.

• Portable: Compact and easy to transport, ideal for use in various work environments, including industrial, healthcare, and emergency response settings.

Applications:

• Industrial Use: Ensures workers are using properly fitted respiratory protection to safeguard against hazardous particles, gases, and vapors.

• Healthcare Settings: Verifies the correct fit of respirators, crucial for protecting medical professionals from airborne pathogens.

• Emergency Services: Guarantees that first responders have secure fitting respiratory protection when responding to hazardous situations.

The Bitrex Fit Test Kit is an essential tool for compliance with occupational health and safety regulations, helping organizations ensure their employees are fully protected in environments where respiratory hazards are present.
