Choosing Respirators Based on Non-IDLH Situations
OSHA's chart for respirator selection also provides a section for non-IDLH situations. It suggests the following respirators to combat the hazards listed below:
Gas and vapor contaminants: Positive-pressure SARs, gas masks, and chemical-cartridge or canister respirators
Particulate contaminants: Positive-pressure SAR (including abrasive blasting respirators), powered air-purifying respirators equipped with high-efficiency filters, any air-purifying respirator with a specific particulate filter
Gaseous and particulate contaminants: Positive-pressure supplied respirators, gas masks, chemical-cartridge respirators with mechanical filters
Smoke and other fire-related contaminants: Positive-pressure SCBAs
