MIRA Safety MD-1 Children's Gas Mask - Full-Face Protective Respirator
New
Description
- PLEASE READ -
**IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to breathing resistance on all negative pressure gas masks, a “balloon” test is recommended to ensure that a mask can be safely used during an emergency. A standard negative-pressure gas mask should only be used by children that can blow up a balloon with their own lung power.
Even if your child passes the balloon test, it is highly recommend to use a Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR) with the MD-1 Children’s Gas Mask to reduce fatigue. PAPRs use a powered fan unit to improve airflow and create positive pressure for added protection from airborne contaminants. MIRA Safety’s PAPR unit is flexible and can be used with any of their 40mm NATO standard gas masks (see CBRN NBC-77 SOF 40mm Gas Mask Filter).
PLEASE NOTE: NATO Standard 40mm Filters are Sold Separately. Click to purchase CBRN NBC-77 SOF 40mm Gas Mask Filter.
The MD-1 is one of the only dedicated, reusable children’s gas mask available on the market today. It is engineered to meet the same strict standards as MIRA's adult masks, with a lighter weight, more compact size, and detachable hose for reduced weight and improved comfort. It uses the same NATO standard 40mm filters(Sold Separately) as all other MIRA Safety gas masks and is also compatible with their Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (see below).

Protection for those that need it most
Nothing is more important than the health and welfare of our children. Yet, there has been no protection available for them in the event of a fire, major natural disaster, nuclear event, or terrorist attack … until now.
MIRA Safety's MD-1 Children’s Gas Mask is one of the only reusable CBRN full-face respirator designed with the special needs of children in mind. Unlike expensive, single-use alternatives, the MD-1 uses the same 40mm filters as most adult masks mask, allowing you to rely on a single supply of canisters (like MIRA's cutting-edge technology MIRA canister filters that feature an extended 20-year shelf life) to maximise the odds of survival in the event of a disaster. It’s also compatible with accessories like MIRA's Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR) (can be purchased separately).
Originally designed as a child respirator to meet strict protective standards for the government of Yugoslavia, MIRA have adapted and improved on this rugged design to bring it into the twenty-first century, with an enhanced head harness, updated materials, and compatibility with 40mm NATO threaded filters.
Proper respiratory protection is especially vital for young children, as they are still growing. They are far more susceptible to airborne contaminants and respiratory damage, which could cause a lifetime of adverse health effects. This is especially true of radioactive contaminants, which can dangerously increase the risk of cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Because of its smaller size, this children’s gas mask weighs far less than an adult mask, with optimised airflow for easier breathing and reduced fatigue. Using the filter hose attachment (included), it weighs approximately 510g.
Storage
Standard MD-1 Children’s Gas Masks must be stored in a dark, cool, dust-free environment that is ventilated regularly and free from sudden temperature changes. Temperatures may vary between 5°C and 25°C with relative humidity up to 60%. The stored products should not be exposed to radiant heat or sunshine. Fuels, solvents, lubricants, and other inflammable substances must not be stored with the masks.
Do not store with or near any electrical machines or appliances that produce electric sparks or discharges during operation (ozone creation).
Avoid deformation of the rubber parts of the face-piece and internal mask when storing the masks. Inspect gas masks regularly to ensure they effectively seal to the user's face, as needed.
Please note that gas mask filters and accessories are sold separately.
- Medium: Children 2 to 6 years old
- Large: Kids 6 to 12 years old
