3M Aura? Particulate Respirator 9205+, N95 - High Performance Flat-Fold Respirator
Overview
The 3M Aura? 9205+ is an ultra-lightweight, flat-fold N95 respirator engineered to deliver at least 95 percent filtration of non-oil particulates at an airflow rate of 85 L/min
Its patented three-panel design folds down to just 5 mm for compact storage, then springs open to conform to a wide range of facial shapes
The sculpted nose panel provides extra clearance for eyewear and, together with embossed top panels, directs exhaled air away from lenses to reduce fogging
Each box contains 20 units.
Key Features
Three-panel flat-fold design
Collapses to 5 mm for storage and springs open for a secure seal.
Sculpted nose panel

Embossed top panel
Deflects exhalation upward, reducing lens fog by up to 65 percent.
Innovative chin tab
Enables 15 percent faster donning and yields 20 percent fewer fit errors in trials.
Soft polyurethane foam
Conforms to nasal pressure points for comfort during extended wear of eight hours or more.
Dual braided headbands
Made of non-latex polyisoprene and staple-attached to maintain consistent tension.
Adjustable aluminum nose clip
Molds to any bridge shape and locks in place for a leak-free seal.

Fit Testing & Usage
Wash or sanitize hands thoroughly
Cup the respirator under your chin with the nose clip positioned upward.
Pull the braided headbands over your head, placing the upper band at the crown and the lower band below the ears.
Mold the aluminum nose clip evenly around the bridge of your nose using both hands.
Perform a positive seal check by exhaling sharply and feeling for air leaks around the seal
Then perform a negative seal check by inhaling sharply
the mask should collapse slightly if sealed correctly.
