FAQ - Allegro 2055 Irritant Fit Test Kit
Q: Does this kit require a test hood? A: No. Irritant smoke testing is performed by moving the smoke around the seal area with the aspirator bulb. A hood is not required by OSHA for this specific method, which makes the testing process significantly faster than Bitrex or Saccharin methods.
Q: Can I use this for N95 masks? A: Per OSHA standards, irritant smoke can only be used on respirators with a P100 level of filtration. If you are testing a standard N95, you must use a Bitrex or Saccharin kit instead to avoid a "false fail" from particles penetrating the filter media.
Q: How do I store the smoke tubes once they are opened? A: The kit includes rubber caps specifically for this purpose. Once a tube is cracked, cap both ends tightly. For the best results, used tubes should be replaced within 24 hours to ensure the smoke remains at full potency.
