MSA's NEW Millennium CBRN
Gas Mask is the FIRST NIOSH-certified
CBRN full-facepiece air-purifying respirator (APR) when using this high-performance
CBRN 40mm gas filter. Millennium
gas masks (when combined with this NIOSH CBRN CAP1 APPROVED filter) provides first responders with state of the art respiratory protection
against
chemical,
biological,
radiological and nuclear (CBRN) agents that might be used in a terrorist attack.
(NIOSH Approval number TC-14G-0270 note that NIOSH approval comes only when paired
with the CBRN Millennium respirator)
Also effective against ALL Riot Control / Crowd Control agents.
MSA has manufactured gas masks for almost 90 years and understands how critical
CBRN protection is to first responders. MSA is proud to be the first to have
met the challenge of meeting the new NIOSH CBRN standards and to provide the
equipment to protect first responders in the battle against terrorism.
With nearly a century of history and success behind it, MSA stands ready to protect
Americans – this time against all potential airborne contaminants that
could be unleashed by terrorists across our homeland. The Millennium CBRN Gas
Mask is the most up-to-date example of MSA's commitment and unwavering dedication
to protect today's and tomorrow's First Responder. This
filter was just produced by MSA as their primary CBRN
Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear filter.
This CBRN NIOSH approval was just implemented by the
federal government in 2004 and the MSA Millennium CBRN
mask kit is the first and as of June 2004 the only respirator
system to apply for and pass this series of tests. Read

- Specifically designed for biological / chemical/ radiological
agents
-Particulate filter is over 99.99% efficient against all particulates
and is
appropriate for protection against all biological aerosols
- Exceptionally high particle-filtration capacity and low breathing-resistance.
- Standard 40mm NATO threaded, fits most masks including the
MSA Millennium
and Advantage 3100
(or the Advantage 1000 and 3200 with an optional 40mm
adapter) BUT
the NIOSH Approval is only valid with the CBRN Millennium
mask
