	SCBA - Supplied Air Respirator NIOSH prefix TC-13F. Self-contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) is used for entry and escape from all atmospheres that are Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health (IDLH) or oxygen deficient. Breathable air is supplied by cylinder on back of wearer. Applications: silos when silo gas is possible, manure pits, enclosed structures that are fumigated and other confined spaces.

NOTE: Most pesticides are classified as organic vapors and require a particulate filter in addition to an organic vapor cartridge, if sprayed. *NOTE: 10xPEL, 50xPEL, etc., refer to the assigned protection factors (APF) of the respirators. A respirator with an APF of 10 (10xPEL) that is properly selected, fitted and worn will protect the employee from exposure levels up to 10 times the permissible exposure level (PEL), which is the exposure level deemed to be dangerous by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
