Supplied-air respirators deliver breathing air through a supply hose
connected to the wearer's facepiece or enclosure. The air delivered must be free of
contaminants and must be from a source located in clean air. The OSHA
requirements for compressed air used for breathing, including monitoring for carbon
monoxide, are listed in 1910.134(d). Supplied-air respirators should only be used in non-IDLH
atmospheres. The three types of supplied-air respirators are listed below.
