How to Use
- Inspect packaging and filters for damage; confirm expiry date is valid.
- Select the correct twin‑cartridge respirator model and ensure it is clean and serviceable.
- Align each filter to the respirator’s twin connectors and screw clockwise until seated; do not overtighten.
- Perform a user seal check per mask instructions before entering the work area.
- Replace filters when breathing resistance increases, the filters are damaged/soiled, or after their service life as determined by site conditions.
- Do not use pre‑filters over particulate cartridges. Do not fit to single‑port masks.
Customer Reviews • Thabo M.: “Solid value. The low breathing resistance stands out on longer shifts, and the twin fitment is quick.”
• Mia K.: “Comfortable with a good field of view. The screw‑on connection feels secure and changeouts are simple.”
• Bradley S.: “Used for metal grinding and site dust. Performance is consistent and the certification ticks our compliance boxes.”
FAQs Q: What size are these filters?
A: One size. They are twin cartridges designed to fit compatible twin‑port respirators.
Q: Are they suitable for gases or vapours?
A: No. These are particulate filters (P2) for dusts and mists only.
Q: Which masks are they compatible with?
A: Twin‑cartridge respirators that accept the right‑hand threaded connection, including half‑mask model DH‑302 and full‑face model DH‑FFM.
Q: How should I clean them?
A: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents and do not allow water into the filter media.
Q: What is the shelf life and storage guidance?
A: Shelf life is 5 years if stored between +2°C and +55°C, below 75% relative humidity, clean, dry, and away from sunlight and contaminants.
Q: Do they come as a pair?
A: Yes. Each pack contains one set of two filters.
