HALF MASK GVS ELIPSE A1P3 RD COMBINED M-L

Ready-to-use half-mask respirator with replaceable A1P3 R D combination filter. Particle and gas filtration via activated carbon filter. Model from the GVS Low Profile series, one of the smallest and lightest half-masks on the market. Low profile provides a wide field of view, and the design ensures excellent compatibility with other PPE such as face shields, full-face masks, hearing protection, and hard hats. Available in two sizes: S-M and M-L. Typical applications: Painting, lacquering, impregnation, coating, paint surface repair, gluing, spraying and handling solvents and pesticides, dismantling microbially damaged structures, metalworking, welding, construction and maintenance of roads, pavements, and roofs (bitumen handling), exposure to dust, welding fumes, microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, etc. Popular model in shipbuilding, automotive industry, and construction. Significantly large inhalation surface area combined with a large exhalation valve in front of the mouth minimizes breathing resistance and prevents moisture buildup inside the mask. Filters feature a water-repellent structure and are reusable. Four-point head harness increases comfort under changing working conditions and is designed for safe use even in extremely humid and wet environments. Materials are soft, odorless, hypoallergenic, skin-friendly, and free of latex and silicone. Face seal made of TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer), comfortable for prolonged continuous use. Filter type markings explained: A = Filters organic gases and vapors with boiling point >65 °C. Brown color on filter side. (Gas molecules are so small they pass through particle filters). 1 = Low gas concentration, below 1000 ppm (=1000 ml/m³). P3 = Highest efficiency particle filtration class for dust, mist, and vapor containing microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, gypsum, wood or textile fibers, marble, titanium dioxide, volcanic rock, rock wool, cleaning agents, oil, spices, salt, feed, etc. Protects against dust causing lung diseases such as cotton, graphite, kaolin, zinc, and aluminum. Also protects against hazardous dust from coal, asbestos (always check specific dismantling instructions), bauxite, quartz, and iron ore. Also protects against toxic dust from manganese, lead, and chromium. Efficiency: 99.98% (up to 0.3 micrometer particle size). R = Reusable filters D = Filters tested according to voluntary dolomite test, allowing the mask to be used for extended periods in heavy dust while maintaining low breathing resistance. Test measures filtration efficiency using particles simulating mining conditions. Low breathing resistance reduces user fatigue and improves work comfort. Filter type: HESPA (High Efficiency Synthetic Particulate Airfilter), High Activated Carbon Pore diameter: 0.3 micrometers (= one-thousandth of a millimeter) Certification: Half-mask CE EN 140, EAC. Filter CE EN 14387+A1P3 R D. P3 APF 20, Gas or P3+Gas APF 10. CA 31.870, EAC. Total weight only 257 g. Filter service life: Use until the filter becomes clogged and breathing becomes unpleasant, or until the activated carbon is exhausted and the user tastes or smells an odor (influenced by particle/gas concentration and breathing rate). Filtration efficiency remains constant throughout use. Particle filter lifespan can be significantly extended by using optional pre-filters. Storage life: 3 years. Manufactured in Great Britain. Delivery includes: Half-mask, 2 x A1P3 R D Low Profile filter elements, head harness.
