MIRA Safety MB-90 Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) - No Filters
This detachable unit upgrades your standard gas mask to a powered air-purifying respirator (PAPRS mask) that uses an integrated blower instead of the user's natural breathing for improved supplied air flow and positive pressure within your gas mask.
MIRA Safety's PAPR is based on an enhanced design from the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF), modified to use standard AA batteries, and available at a third of the closest competitor's price. Users will breathe more easily and comfortably while wearing a PAPR respirator. Still, it's ideal for those with a limited lung capacity who may not otherwise be able to wear a mask for respiratory protection.

Transforming Respiratory Protection with a PAPR Respirator System
The MIRA Safety MB-90 Powered Air Purifying Respirator fundamentally transforms and improves the way any gas mask works.
Enhancing Standard Gas Masks
With any standard gas mask, including our MIRA Safety CM-6M and CM-7M, your lung power pulls air through the filter that removes toxins and potential threats. That sounds simple, but in practice, it's not always so easy. Filters increase breathing resistance, and any negative pressure gas mask will cause you to tire faster than you would without one. It can be distracting, but worse still—not everyone has the lung power to use a negative pressure gas mask.
Addressing Breathing Challenges
Children, those with respiratory issues, or anyone who can't blow up a large balloon can't use most gas masks. Not to mention, the added weight of strapping filters to your face can make wearing a gas mask cumbersome over time. The design of our new powered air-purifying respirator addresses all of those issues.
Improved Mobility and Comfort
Weighing just 1.8lb on its own, our PAPR straps to your belt and uses two 40mm CBRN filters. Then, the hose connects directly to your mask, reducing your mask's overall weight for improved mobility. Switch the blower on, and the unit instantly provides 90 liters/min of airflow drawn through the attached filters. As a result, you'll have an easier time breathing, maneuvering, and doing practically anything with your gas mask.
Continued Operation and Quick Battery Swap
The unit can still be used if the batteries are fully depleted, but it reverts to a standard negative pressure system. With a quick swap of the AA battery unit, it's right back in action.
Enhanced Safety through Positive Pressure
Even more importantly, a powered air-purifying respirator can potentially make your mask even safer by creating a positive pressure environment inside the mask. By feeding such a high rate of airflow directly into your gas mask, our PAPR becomes a positive pressure respirator that creates an additional layer of protection around the edges of your mask, ensuring that dangerous particles are kept out. This is the same principle that helps PAPR hoods work, even though they don't have the additional seal you get from a CBRN gas mask.
Reliable and Flexible Power Options
Our MB-90 PAPR is a direct upgrade from the Israeli military issue, with multiple improvements and a modified battery bay that will work with AA batteries that you can find practically anywhere. Eight AA batteries provide up to 12 hours of runtime. Most PAPR's on the market work only with NiMH and LiSO2 batteries, which are prohibitively expensive and difficult to find. The MB-90 PAPR works with all three for ultimate flexibility.

Versatile Applications for Enhanced Respiratory Protection
The MB-90 PAPR is ideal for various applications, including industrial settings, first responders, and those in heavy industry. Its ability to deliver filtered air consistently makes it suitable for environments with high particulate matter (including sand, organic vapors, and other airborne substances). Applications include tight-fitting and loose-fitting full face and half mask gear such as welding helmets, grinding hard hats, or working with hazardous materials. The system is also compatible with full facepiece gas masks, providing comprehensive high-efficiency protection for the wearer.
Upgrading Your PPE Kit with PAPRs
Investing in the MB-90 PAPR enhances your personal protective equipment (PPE) kit, offering a significant upgrade in respiratory protection. The system's positive pressure airflow ensures a secure fit and improved safety, making it an excellent choice for anyone needing reliable and robust respiratory protection.
All-In-One Respiratory Compatibility and Customization
The MB-90 PAPR is designed for versatility, compatible with various gas masks and filters. Whether you're using a CM-6M, CM-7M, or another model, the MB-90 PAPR system can be customized to fit your specific needs, providing a flexible and adaptable solution for respiratory protection.
Battery Powered Performance
With a focus on convenience and accessibility, the MB-90 PAPR uses standard AA batteries, providing a cost-effective and readily available power source. This feature ensures that your PAPR system is always ready for use, whether in an emergency or a routine operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The MB-90 does not come with filter cartridges. Filters of choice must be purchased separately. You can also use the drop-down menu next to the "add to cart" button to add ParticleMax P3 or NBC-77 SOF filters as part of a discounted package.
