Sensitivity Solution for Fit Testing

3M FT-31 Sensitivity Solution is a 55 mL bottle of Bitrex solution used to verify the seal of a respirator. It is intended for safety managers and workers who must complete a qualitative fit test before entering a hazardous environment. The fluid works with the 3M FT-30 test apparatus to confirm that the mask fits correctly.

Practical Limits of the Qualitative Method

The solution supports the Bitrex protocol for the FT-30 apparatus only and cannot be used with other test agents or equipment. A passed test depends on the wearer detecting the bitter taste, so individuals who cannot taste Bitrex will need an alternative method. Each bottle provides a finite volume for a limited number of test exercises.
