Optrel e3000 / e3000X PAPR
Optrel's belt-mounted PAPR (three airflow settings, 170–240 l/min, HEPA 99.8% at 0.3 micron, up to 18 h battery). The e3000X is the current blower; the original e3000 and its 10-hour battery are discontinued. Confirmed on Optrel's own product page: "the Swiss Air face mask cannot be attached to the e3000x blower."

Generations & part-number caution: e3000 (discontinued, 10-hour battery) superseded by e3000X (18-hour battery 4553.020). Backward compatibility of the 4553.020 with the older e3000 blower is distributor-confirmed only — not yet found in an Optrel manual or DoC.
