Gert,
What are you looking for in such a unit? Dust filtration? One to use when painting, ect.? I have a fresh air respirator for my paint booth, and wish I had gotten it years ago. If you are looking for a fresh air type, let me know. I'll give you more info.

*GertPowered full face respirators are commonly used by wood turners & are generally available thru stores catering to that particular sector. You could also check out wood turning magazines for suppliers.Don
*Airmate Visor- Rachall industries. This is for nusiance dusts. They are pricy but come with a lexan face shield, hepa filter and hard hat.I like mine and use it when I mill alot of stuff or sand alot.Frank
*I've had the Racal Power Visor for 4 years & like it. It does not get in the way of wearing glasses like other masks I have. This company changed names, or merged, and is known as Airware America, POB 975, Elbow Lake, MN 56531-0975, 1-800-328-1792, http://www.airwareamerica.com.
