New gas and vapour filters

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

JSP is offering a new generation of gas and vapour filters in addition to the P3 dust filter for its Halfmask Press to Check system.

Press to Check now offers the choice of an A2 P3 filter to
protect against organic vapours from
naturally-occurring chemicals and an
ABEK1 P3 multi-gas filter, which is designed to eliminate vapours from chlorine, brick acid,
MDF machine-tooling and contaminated earth in addition to those gasses removed
by the A2 P3 filter, yet while still removing particulates.

Winner of the 2014 BSIF Product Innovation Award, the Press
to Check system enables the wearer to determine
whether a correct face-fit has been achieved every time they put on their
Force 8 half-mask without disturbing the fit to the face.

Matthew Judson, JSP’s director of Respiratory Protection,
said: “The ABEK1 P3 filter protects against organic, inorganic, acidic
and ammonia-based vapours in one fell swoop, while the A2 P3 shields against
organic vapours.”
