Guys
When your ready for a professional level respirator, use a 3M HT-400 head piece.

Where can I see one of these?
Googled and came up with nowt.

Start off by googling "3M Dustmaster" as this is the base unit then look for the link to modular range on L/H/S of screen and select the HT series 400 visor.

I get most of my stuff through Blackwoods Group who purchase from 3M. You may find other retailers of 3M Health & Safety in your area by contacting 3M customer service.

BTW I have no financial interests with either Blackwoods or 3M

I hardly ever wear mine.

I find it really uncomfortable and heavy. The constant droning of the motor is a PITA too.

I mostly use a rubber dust mask with the two air filters when I'm doing something that creates a lot of dust.

The Triton is very good for when you are doing something like cutting sandstone with an angle grinder.

Probably be good for lathe work too I guess. I don't have one of those though.

I wouldn't buy another one though.

The triton respirator strikes me as a prop that didn't make it into a 60's sci fi moovie.

What do you expect!

It been assembled from bits and pieces so that it sort of makes a respirator, ie take 1 hard hat with a visor, stick some sealing material between visor & helmet, add some ear muffs, tack on a shroud, add some more after market bits and look we have a respirator. Even the filters are somebody elses.
