The filter, when connected to a proper protective equipment, is designed to provide a long lasting protection against a wide range of toxic industrial chemicals in the form of gases and vapours.
Reliable against hydrocarbon and organic solvents with the boiling point above 65°C (e.g. benzene, cyclohexane, decanol, styrene, toluene, trichlorethylene, xylene, petrol, ethanol, kerosene, diesel oil, mineral turpentine, ethylene glycol, methyl isobutyl ketone, isobutanol, etc.)
The filter does not provide protection against aerosols!

Breakthrough time of a filter is tested according to EN 14387+A1 at humidity 70% and flow rate 30 l/min., which is equivalent to the volume of air per minute used by an average person carrying out medium heavy work. The approximate life time (usage time) of a filter may be, under normal conditions, calculated by comparing the concentration at the workplace and the minimum Dynamic Adsorption Capacity (DAC) for the filter.
