For evaluat<strong>in</strong>g weld<strong>in</strong>g fumes, if personal sampl<strong>in</strong>g must be done <strong>in</strong>side <strong>the</strong><br />
mask, use an adaptor available from SKC Cat. No. 225-600. If metals must be<br />
analyzed, use a preweighed MCE filter (code 916 or 913)<br />
