MSA 90 ABEK Gas Filter
The MSA 90 ABEK Gas Filter is part of a range of filters available from MSA with a filter class of 2 and class 1 for 'K'. It is an example of a high-performance filter which provides strong and reliable protection.
The filter also uses PlexTech technology for reduced inhalation resistance and allows the wearer to experience more relaxed breathing. This type of technology also means the filter housings have been reduced in size and are now more compact and weight.
This particular filter protects against organic gases and vapours (with boiling point >65°C), inorganic gases and vapours, sulfur dioxide and acidic gases and vapours and also ammonia and organic ammonia derivatives (all class 2 - 5000 ml/m3, 0-5 Vol.-% with the exception of K which is class 1 - 1000 ml/m3 - 0.1 Vol-%).
The specifics of this filter include weight - 255g (approx.), 107mm in diameter and 70mm in height and uses thread connector EN148-1.
