Elmridge iEvac® E-500: NIOSH Certified Industrial Escape Respirator
The iEvac® E-500 is a professional-grade industrial escape hood engineered for rapid evacuation from environments contaminated with toxic industrial gases, vapors, and particulates. Designed specifically for high-risk sectors including chemical processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and petroleum refineries, the E-500 provides immediate respiratory and ocular protection when seconds count. Unlike standard respirators, this hood requires no fit testing, medical evaluation, or prior extensive training, making it an ideal "universal fit" solution for diverse workforces and visitors.
Constructed from a proprietary soft, transparent polyurethane material, the E-500 ensures a distortion-free field of view through its large anti-fog visor (9.5" x 4.5"). The unit is NIOSH certified under 42 CFR Part 84, ensuring compliance with rigorous federal safety standards. Its compact, vacuum-sealed storage capability allows for easy deployment in wall-mounted cabinets or belt-worn carry cases, ensuring critical protection is always within arm's reach during hazmat incidents or facility alarms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to commonly asked questions below.
-
How does the iEvac E-500 differ from the iEvac E-900 Smoke Hood?
The E-500 is a NIOSH-certified industrial escape hood designed specifically for toxic gases, vapors, and chemical spills found in manufacturing and processing environments. In contrast, the iEvac E-900 is ASTM E2952 certified specifically for fire and smoke evacuation involving carbon monoxide and high heat. While the E-500 offers robust respiratory protection, procurement officers should select the model that aligns with their primary facility hazard (chemical release vs. structural fire).
-
Does the iEvac E-500 require annual fit testing or medical clearance for employees?
No, the iEvac E-500 is classified as a loose-fitting escape respirator, which exempts it from the OSHA fit-testing and medical evaluation requirements mandatory for tight-fitting tight-fitting facepieces. This "universal fit" design utilizes a flexible neck dam and positive pressure seal to protect users regardless of facial structure, facial hair, or eyewear. This feature significantly lowers the administrative burden and ongoing compliance costs for large facilities.
-
Can the E-500 be used by individuals wearing glasses or having facial hair?
hood is engineered with a spacious interior and a flexible silicone neck dam that accommodates prescription eyewear, long hair, and beards without compromising the protective seal. The "one size fits all" architecture ensures that any employee, contractor, or visitor can safely don the unit in under 30 seconds during an emergency. This capability is critical for ensuring 100% workforce coverage during unplanned evacuations.
-
What is the shelf life of the iEvac E-500, and how are maintenance costs managed?
The E-500 hood body features an indefinite shelf life, requiring no replacement as long as it remains undamaged and stored correctly. The replaceable filter cartridges (B1309 or B1304) are the only consumable components, typically having a 5 to 10-year shelf life depending on the specific filter lot. This modular design allows safety managers to simply rotate filters rather than discarding the entire unit, providing a superior Return on Investment (ROI) compared to single-use disposable hoods.
-
Which filters are compatible with the E-500, and how do I choose the right one?
E-500 utilizes a universal side-mount connection compatible with two primary Elmridge filters: the B1309 for multi-gas protection (Chlorine, Hydrogen Sulfide, Ammonia, Organic Vapors) and the B1304 P100 for high-efficiency particulate protection (biological agents, toxic dusts, aerosols). Facility safety officers should conduct a hazard assessment to determine whether their primary threat is gaseous/chemical (B1309) or particulate/biological (B1304) to ensure the correct configuration is deployed.
