FILTER PROGRAM – Clean air in every situation. Hazardous situations, harmful particles, high concentrations, long duration operations. In these situations, there is no room for compromise when it comes to respiratory protection equipment. The secure and comfortable fitting of the mask and the safe performance of the filter must be perfect for the absorption and removal of toxic substances from breathable air.

Toxins may occur in the form of particles, in vapours (solid and liquid aerosols) or gases. Particle, gas or combined filters will provide breathable air in every situation. In order to select the best respiratory protection unit (filter and mask), you have to be aware of the type of toxins you are faced with, working conditions, operation and protection limits of your equipment.

The Interspiro filter program covers a complete range of particle, gas and combined filters, plus masks (available as half and full face masks), all of these products meet the requirements of the relevant EN standards and are CE approved.

how to choose the right filter protection

Take the following points into consideration:
Does the ambient air provide sufficient oxygen, at least 17 % by volume?
What type of toxins are present?
Value of their atmospheric concentration
What are the applicable TLV (threshold limit value) and IDLH (immediately
dangerous for life and health) values?
Type and characteristics of the toxic substances: particles, gas or in
combinations?
Can you perceive any smell or taste of the toxins?
Is additional protection required, e.g. for eyes/ears or/and skin?

How to find the correct filter In order to calculate the minimum protection factor required, you need to know the concentration and the limit value of the toxin.


appropiate protection in every situation
High quality – latest technology. All filter have a shock-resistant casing (IS 230, IS 200, IS 100 with plastic casing, IS 500 with aluminium casing).
The resistant casing prevents dents and protects the internal parts. The range of temperatures are between -40ºC to +70ºC.
Filter life time
The life time of a filter depends on its filter class and the ambient conditions, influencing factors are
Air consumption of the person wearing the equipment
Humidity
Temperature
Concentration value of toxins in the ambient air
Composition of toxins

Signs of reduced filter performance
With gas filter – when tastes or odours are perceived
With particle filter – when detecting increased breathing resistance
With combined filter – when tastes or odours are perceived, or you feel a
significant increase in respiratory resistance

face masks
Full face masks are available in two versions: Spiromatic 400 & 400 Pro. Full face masks are appropriate when highly toxic and aggressive substances are present, and when the face needs protection.

Half masks are available in three different designs: Alfa, Beta and Gamma.

All three versions are available in rubber or silicone material.

our filter range – effective and compatible
Particle filters
Meet EN 143, divided into 3 performance classes:
P1, P2 and P3.
All series IS 100, 200 and 230 P3 filter include the BIOSTOP,
a specially treated filter insert to prevent fungus and mould
formation after biological particles have been suspended.
Type IS 200 filter are used in twin configuration for half
masks. The advantages include optimum weight distribution,
increased comfort, reduced respiratory resistance and an
enhanced field of vision.
Type IS 230 and IS 500 with EN 148/1 threaded connector can
be used for all half and full face masks supporting this
connection.
Extremely water-repellent filter element.
Gas filters
Single or multi-type filter
Provides protection against toxic substances of class
A, B, E and K
AX filter – for organic gases or vapours with a boiling point of
less than 65ºC
NO filter – for nitric dioxides
Hg filter to protect against mercury vapours
Combined filters
Will filter gases, vapours and particles. Before inhalation the
air flows through the particle filter in the first step and then
through the gas filter.
The IS 230 and IS 500 gas and combined filter series have
a threaded connector according to EN 148/1 and can
therefore be used with any half or full face mask supporting
this connection.
