Fit testing is a critical process that ensures the effectiveness of respiratory protection against hazardous airborne particles. The test determines the proper fit of the respirator to the wearer’s face, which is essential in preventing airborne contaminants from entering the nose and mouth. The fit test is conducted using a specialized machine that measures the leakage around the respirator’s seal when the wearer inhales and exhales. The results of the fit test determine whether the respirator is suitable for the wearer or not.
