Modern GenVX Respirator Design

The Bullard GenVX is designed to provide respiratory, head, and face protection during abrasive blasting operations.

Its supplied-air design delivers breathing air from a compatible external source through the approved breathing-air hose and air-control assembly.

The helmet is intended to help protect the operator while working in environments where abrasive dust and airborne contaminants may be present.

The complete respirator must be properly assembled, inspected, and operated according to Bullard's instructions.

Bullard 28VX 28-Inch Cape

This GVX2830 configuration includes the Bullard 28VX 28-inch cape.

The cape extends below the helmet to provide coverage around the operator's neck, shoulders, and upper torso.

It is an integral part of the specified respirator configuration and must be installed and secured according to Bullard's instructions.

F30 Constant Flow Air-Control Assembly

The included Bullard F30 Constant Flow Assembly provides the specified airflow-control connection for this respirator configuration.

Features include:

• Constant-flow air-control design

• 1/4" industrial interchange quick-disconnect connection

• Designed for compatible compressed breathing-air systems

The F30 must be used with the approved breathing-air supply hose and within the operating-pressure range specified by Bullard.

The F30 is not interchangeable with the F35 low-pressure free-air pump assembly.

Assigned Protection Factor (APF) of 1,000

The GenVX respirator family has a third-party-tested Assigned Protection Factor of 1,000, according to the supplied product specifications.

This performance information is relevant to respiratory protection program planning.

Important: The third-party-tested APF does not automatically establish an OSHA-assigned protection factor of 1,000 for every workplace. Under OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134, the applicable assigned protection factor depends on respirator classification, configuration, and regulatory requirements.

Employers must determine the appropriate protection factor and respirator selection under their respiratory protection program.

Head and Face Protection

The GenVX is specified with the following protection classifications:

Head Protection

ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2014

• Type I

• Class C

Type I addresses protection from impacts to the top of the head. Class C does not provide electrical insulation protection.

Face Protection

ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2015

• Z87+ High-Impact Face Protection

These classifications apply to the specified helmet assembly and must be maintained through the use of appropriate approved components.

Common Applications

• Industrial abrasive blasting

• Structural steel surface preparation

• Shipyard and marine maintenance

• Bridge restoration

• Tank and vessel blasting

• Industrial coating preparation

• Commercial sandblasting operations

• Heavy equipment surface preparation

Important Breathing-Air Safety Information

The Bullard GVX2830 is a supplied-air respirator and requires an appropriate external breathing-air source.

Compressed breathing air must meet applicable quality requirements, including OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134.

Use only Bullard-approved breathing-air hoses, air-control assemblies, and other components for the specific NIOSH-approved respirator configuration.

Breathing-air filtration alone does not necessarily remove carbon monoxide. Appropriate air-quality controls and monitoring must be provided as required.

Follow Bullard's instructions for operating pressure, airflow, hose length, inspection, maintenance, and respirator use.

The respirator must be used under an appropriate workplace respiratory protection program.
