Please note that the P3 designation is the European equivalent of the US NIOSH P100 standard. These Scott PF10 filters are effective at filtering out 99.97% of airborne particulates, including aerosolized oils. Yes that includes biological particulates and viruses. Dedicated 40mm particulate filters have the advantage of being light weight and compact. At 3.5 oz and 2.3 tall, the Scott PF10 is no exception. It is also low burden—in that it is significantly easier to breathe through. This is especially true in comparison to CBRN type cartridges which include multiple layers of charcoal and other filter media. Each PF10 filter is new from 3M Scott Safety. And while they do require some care once out of the package, PF10s have the advantage of containing no expiring chemical component. They are in essence HEPA filters with an indefinite shelf life—fully reusable until clogged with particulate. Usable lifespan depends on the concentration of particulates in the air. If the filter becomes hard to breath through, wet, or damaged, it’s time to change it. It will filter out most odors, but molecular gasses will still get through. In short, some bad smells will still be bad. Once the seal on the filter bag is punctured we cannot accept a return on this item. Shelf Life: 10 Years (Poly Bag). Life Span in Use: 1 Year. Diameter: 4.3 inches (110mm). Height: 2.3 inches (59mm) overall. Weight: 3.5 ounces (99 grams). Connection: EN 148-1 (40mm) NATO thread. Body Material: ABS plastic. In addition to AS/NZS 1716 certification, Scott Safetys filter material has been independently tested using a series of aerosols with a very narrow size distribution. This measures efficiency against specific particle sizes. The average efficiency for each test aerosol is the following. Store the filters unopened in a clean place at even temperature, most appropriate at 0… +30°C and relative humidity below 75%. Sealed filters tolerate also conditions of -10… +50°C and below 95% RH. The storage period (month and year) for filters is marked on the filter tape. Do not try to regenerate the filters. Never clean the filters with compressed air or compressed water. After use, the filters are special refuse. Make sure that they are disposed of according to the filtered substance (gases or particles) in accordance with current waste treatment regulations. If the filter is to be disposed of, it should be dismantled from the respirator and disposed of as solid waste. Please see local authority regulations for disposal advice and locations.
