The CM-8M tactical, air-purifying respirator is a next-gen CBRN mask, specially engineered to meet and exceed the strictest military requirements. Thanks to a unique new visor design, it provides unparalleled visibility combined with optics compatibility, along with a six-point mesh head harness for added stability. Like all MIRA Safety CBRN gas masks, it also provides trusted protection from a full spectrum of toxic industrial chemicals (TIC) and chemical warfare agents (CWA) including chemical, biological and nuclear threats such as radioactive dust, noxious gas, vaporised pollutants and more.
Maximum Situational Awareness
The CM-8M features a radically re-engineered visor that combines an unmatched field of view (over 92%), with a contoured shape that’s 100% compatible with popular Night Vision, Rifle Scopes and Thermal Optic setups. That means preserving crucial peripheral vision while ensuring functionality in even the most hostile environments. That means not just an enhanced field of view, but enhanced overall awareness—allowing you to quickly and confidently assess and engage threats as needed.
CM-8M Full Face Respirator Sizing
For the initial launch, the CM-8M will come in one universal size. The fit will be similar to the medium CM-7M, and the CM-6M, which also come in one universal size. We do not recommend this mask for people with smaller-than-average head shapes, nor do we recommend it for above-average head shapes. Always conduct a negative pressure test to ensure you are getting a tight seal, and conduct this test each time when donning the mask.
The CM-8M has been tested with a wide variety of high-cut helmets and shown to integrate seamlessly. However, if the wearer has a small head, the mask may not fit well with a helmet.
Mission-Flexible
As opposed to some full-face respirators that are extremely specialised and mission-specific, the CM-8M was designed as a mission-flexible upgrade for civilians, law enforcement and military alike. Since it’s not a dedicated military mask, that means everyone can tap into the same level of protection that’s trusted by top Special Forces.
MIRA Safety Strategic Support
The CM-8M is part of the MIRA Safety family of masks; which means it uses the same filter cartridges, components and optional upgrades as your existing MIRA Safety masks. It’s compatible with the MIRA Safety Microphone System and Replacement Parts Kit, and it features the same basic construction as your existing MIRA Safety masks; allowing for rapid transition and upgrade to the CM-8M from existing platforms.
Storage
The CM-8M air-purifying gas mask must be stored in a dark, cool and dust-free place free from sudden temperature changes. The storage room should be ventilated regularly. Temperatures may vary between 10°C and 25°C within relative humidity up to 65%. NBC gas masks must not be exposed to radiant heat or sunshine. Fuels, solvents, lubricants and other inflammable substances, including chemicals, must not be stored with masks. Moreover, there must not be any electrical machines or appliances that produce sparks or discharges during operation (ozone creation). Avoid deformation of the rubber parts of the facepiece and internal CBRN gas mask during storage.
