RESPIRATOR FIT TESTING EQUIPMENT

For over 25 years, TSI has been an innovator and leader in providing Quantitative Fit Testing (QNFT) of respirators with our PortaCount® Respirator Fit Testing product line. This experience has resulted in continued innovation and improvements for occupational health and safety. Therefore, we are pleased to introduce the new Qfit Respirator Fit Tester, which now provides the easiest and most comprehensive method for qualitative fit testing (QLFT).

 

TSI has adopted a “Good” “Better” “Best” approach to respirator fit testing:


Good
─ Qualitative fit testing (QLFT) is a subjective test and is not comparable to the comprehensive PortaCount® quantitative fit tester.


Better
─ Qualitative fit testing (QLFT) with the Q-fit™ Respirator Fit Tester. No mess… no stress… at a push of a button… fit test done.


Best
─ Quantitative fit testing (QNFT) with the PortaCount® Pro/Pro+ Respirator Fit Testers. The only OSHA approved Fit Test system that can test all types of respirators. It’s more than a fit test…it’s a peace of mind.

 

Fit testing the right way means you’re improving your risk management program while increasing productivity because your team is more comfortable and confident in their respiratory protection program. Equally important, you’re complying with OSHA and providing your staff with the best respiratory protection possible.

 

TSI, your total fit testing solution.
