Yes, but it's mainly used by those who needs it.
If it is only the dust you are worried about then a particulate respirator will provide protection, i.e. a N95 up to a P100. That is if there is enough oxygen in the area that you can use an air purifying respirator. If not then you would need to use supplied air. Supplied air is often used during the fumigation process where a cartridge respirator may not provide adequat protection.
No, a respirator is a device that helps a person breathe by delivering air or oxygen to the lungs. Life support is a broader term referring to a range of therapies or interventions that help sustain a person's vital functions when they cannot do so on their own, including the use of a respirator but also other treatments like medications or dialysis.
Before using an air purifying respirator, you must ensure that the respirator is properly fitted to your face, seals securely against your skin, and that the filters are correct for the type of contaminants present in the environment. Additionally, you should perform a user seal check to ensure proper fit before each use.
The most expensive respirator is the Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) system. PAPRs typically range in price from $1,000 to $2,000 or more, depending on the brand and features. These respirators use a battery-powered fan to filter and circulate air, providing a more comfortable and effective respiratory protection than traditional respirators.

The word respirator has no perfect rhymes.
Yes. Respirator only keep lungs going.
If employers require workers to have a respirator or mask to do their job, they need to give their worker access to information about the products, materials, and chemicals they are being exposed to.
Individuals with beards can ensure a proper fit and seal when wearing a respirator for beard protection by using a respirator that is specifically designed for use with facial hair, such as a loose-fitting hood or a powered air-purifying respirator. They can also trim their beard to ensure a tight seal, or use a special beard mask or adhesive seal to prevent air leakage. It is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for proper fit and seal to ensure maximum protection.
No. A respirator and ventilator are alike, but different. A ventilator is what they out people on either life support or during surgery. A respirator is used to help breathing not do it for you! (:

A NIOSH-approved respirator with organic vapor cartridges is recommended for working with polyurethane.
Any respirator will do. Make sure you're buying a "respirator" and not just a mask. The packaging will say "respirator". If you are working in an attic, especially in summer, you'll be apt to remove the respirator because of the heat and discomfort as well as the inability to communicate with others (I know this personally). However, if you do this, you might as well not even wear the respirator in the first place. If you're entering an area that you know contains rodents, just try to get the job done as quickly as you can with the respirator on. I was an electrician and worked in lots of old houses and I got used to wearing the respirator. I was also a soldier and learned the importance of trusting my equipment. A respirator is much more comfortable than an NBC pro mask.
