Powered Air Purifying Helmet Respirators (PHPHR)

Working with pesticides, or working in dusty conditions can be very demanding on yourself and your personnel. The job can be made safer and fatigue reduced by the use of a Kasco powered air-purifying respirator helmet. The fan blower system provides cool filtered air under positive pressure into the helmet. The Kasco helmet provides a superior alternative to the regular full or half mask respirator.

Chemicals can be absorbed into your body by other means other than that of the respiratory system. They can be absorbed into the skin on different parts of your body at varying rates, as follows:
