The TR-300 PAPR Assembly is not intrinsically safe.
Do not use in fl ammable or explosive
atmospheres. Doing so may result in serious injury or death.
Always correctly use and maintain the lithium ion battery packs.
Failure to do
so
may
cause
fi re or explosion or could adversely affect respirator performance and result in injury,
sickness, or death
.
a. Do not charge batteries with unapproved chargers, in enclosed cabinets without
ventilation, in hazardous locations, or near sources of high heat.
b. Do not immerse.
c. Do not use, charge, or store batteries outside the recommended temperature limits.
RESPIRATOR PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
Occupational use of respirators must be in compliance with applicable health and safety standards.
By United States regulation employers must establish a written respirator protection program meeting
the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Respiratory Protection
standard 29 CFR 1910.134 and any applicable OSHA substance specifi c standards. For additional
information on this standard contact OSHA at www.OSHA.gov. In Canada, CSA standard Z94.4
requirements must be met and /or requirements of the applicable jurisdiction as appropriate. The major
sections of 29 CFR 1910.134 are listed here for reference. Consult an industrial hygienist or call 3M
Technical Service with questions concerning applicability of these products to your job requirements.

NIOSH – APPROVAL, CAUTIONS & LIMITATIONS
NIOSH Approval
The TR-300 PAPR Assembly is one component of a NIOSH approved respiratory system. Refer to the
User Instructions
and/or the NIOSH approval label provided with the TR-300 for a listing of components
that can be used to assemble a complete NIOSH approved respirator system or contact 3M Technical
Service. TR-300-SG is a catalog number only. NIOSH approved as TR-300 PAPR.
NIOSH Cautions and Limitations
A – Not for use in atmospheres containing less than 19.5 percent oxygen.
B – Not for use in atmospheres immediately dangerous to life or health.
C – Do not exceed maximum use concentrations established by regulatory standards.
F – Do not use powered air-purifying respirators if airfl ow is less than four cfm (115 lpm) for tight
fi tting facepieces or six cfm (170 lpm) for hoods and/or helmets.
H – Follow established cartridge and canister change schedules or observe ESLI to ensure that
cartridge and canisters are replaced before breakthrough occurs.
I – Contains electrical parts that may cause an ignition in fl ammable or explosive atmospheres.
J – Failure to properly use and maintain this product could result in injury or death.
L – Follow the manufacturer’s

o
Insert the TR-340 into one of the charging ports on the TR-944N and slide back to lock into
place (Fig. 1b).
o
Insert the battery pack into the TR-340 cradle as described above. (
Note:
the TR-941N power
cord is not used with the TR-340, when the 4 Station Charger is used). Ensure the power
cord supplied with the TR-944N kit is plugged into the 4 station base. You may charge any
combination of up to (4) TR-330 or TR-332 battery packs simultaneously.
