ASTM F1862 Resistance to Synthetic Blood Penetration
ASTM F1861 Resistance to Synthetic Blood Penetration
Below is Kinectrics built “blood cannon”. Our expertise in mechanical engineering with the help of our “in-house” physicists created our instrument in record time during the COVID-19 crisis. Today Kinectrics accredited lab is the only lab in Canada doing all the tests in-house for medical masks. A true one stop shop with record turn times.
Ask about expedited testing.
This standard measures the resistance of medical face masks to penetration by the impact of a small volume (~2 mL) of a high velocity stream of synthetic blood.
Blood fired from “blood cannon” at set pressure for target performance.
Visual check for blood penetration through the mask determines pass/fail.
