Protection levels are based on the national ambient air quality standards set air quality in class, in turn divided into four levels from low to high: d-class, c-class, b-class, a-class. Corresponds to environment, d apply moderate (PM2.5 concentration ≤ 150 mg/m) and the following applies, c-class heavy pollution (PM2.5 concentration ≤ 250 mg/m) and below, class b applies to serious pollution of pollution (PM2.5 concentrations of not more than 350 mg/m), a-level use in up to 500 μg/m3 PM2.5 concentrations .

To ensure consumer security when wearing protective masks, masks should be able to firmly protect the security standard requirements cover your mouth and nose, there should be no sharp corners and sharp edges that can be touched.

我国首个民用防护口罩标准发布：隔离PM2.5分4级 - PM2.5,口罩 - IT资讯

质检总局、国家标准化管理委员会25日发布《日常防护型口罩技术规范》国家标准，这是我国首个民用防护口罩国家标准，将于11月1日正式实施。

由于口罩种类繁多，加上缺少统一的标准规范，口罩市场乱象丛生。此次发布的《日常防护型口罩技术规范》国家标准有两大关键指标，即对细颗粒物（PM2.5）的防护效果和佩戴的安全性能。

防护效果级别是根据国家空气质量标准中空气质量类别设置的，由低到高依次分为四级：D级、C级、B级、A级。对应的使用环境为，D级适用于中度（PM2.5浓度≤150微克/立方米）及以下污染、C级适用于重度（PM2.5浓度≤250微克/立方米）及以下污染、B级适用于严重污染（PM2.5浓度≤350微克/立方米）、A级在PM2.5浓度达500微克/立方米时使用。

为保证消费者佩带防护口罩时的安全性，标准要求口罩应能安全牢固地护住口鼻，不应存在可触及的锐利角和锐利边缘。考虑到佩戴者行走时的安全性，标准规定口罩下方视野应不低于60度，避免因口罩拱形设计过高影响佩戴者的视线。

国家标准委有关负责人表示，消费者可以根据空气质量情况选择合适的口罩佩戴，使吸入体内的空气质量达到良及以上水平。

这位负责人还表示，标准的发布和实施将从根本上改变我国民用防护口罩市场无标可依、无标可查的混乱现象，对有效规范市场、合理引导消费起到保障作用。
