- 10-year shelf life provides long-term reliability and cost savings on replacements.
 - Certified for comprehensive protection against a wide range of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats.
 - Used by military personnel, CBRN specialists, and special operations forces globally, ensuring trusted performance.
 
           The NBC-17 SOF 40mm gas mask filter canister, in combination with a 
full-face mask, mouthpiece assembly, TAPR, or PAPR, reliably protects 
air passages against a wide range of harmful substances including CBRN agents.
The filters are produced with standard round threads according to 
STANAG 4155 (EN 148- 1)- Rd 40x1/7". The filter components are made of 
hard plastic. This results in a very robust product that is extremely 
durable against shock and impact damage in operational use.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the shorter threads, the NBC-17 SOF Filter is NOT compatible with the MB-90 PAPR unit.
NBC-17 SOF GAS MASK FILTER KEY FEATURES:

2) The filter was tested on dolomite dust clogging
NBC-17 SOF GAS MASK FILTER APPLICATION:
The filter provides 
reliable protection against solid and liquid aerosols, smoke-producing 
substances, radioactive particles, bacteria, viruses, vapors of organic 
and inorganic acids, hydroxides, organic solvents with a boiling point 
above 65°C, ammonia, amines, acid gases, agricultural chemical 
combustion products, tear-producing agents, irritants, choking agents, 
blister and nerve agents, (e.g., bromoacetone, CS substance, organic 
compounds of arsenic, phosgene, hydrogen cyanide, cyanogen chloride, 
mustard gas, organophosphates) – sarin, IVA, VX and other toxic 
substances, (e.g., benzene, toluene, vinyl chloride, fluorine, hydrogen 
fluoride, sulphur oxides, phosgene, phosphoric acid and its organic 
derivatives, chloroacetic acid, nitric acid, aldehydes, mixtures of 
inorganic acids and organic substances.)
GAS MASK FILTER LIFETIME:
Breakthrough time of a gas mask filter is tested according to EN 
14387+A1 at humidity 70% and flow rate 30 l/min, which is equivalent to 
the volume of air per minute used by an average person carrying out 
medium heavy work. The approximate lifetime (usage time) of a filter 
may, under normal conditions, calculated by comparing the concentration 
at the workplace and the minimum Dynamic Adsorption Capacity (DAC) for 
the filter.
 
GAS MASK FILTER STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE:
Each NBC-17 SOF gas mask filter is sealed in a plastic bag by the 
manufacturer. Store the filters unopened in a clean place at even 
temperature, most appropriate at -5 to +30°C and relative humidity below
 80%. Sealed filters tolerate also conditions of -30 to +50°C and RH 
below 95%. The storage period (month and year) for filters is marked on 
the filter label. Do not try to regenerate the filters. Never clean the 
filters with compressed air or compressed water.
 
GAS MASK FILTER DISPOSAL:
After use, gas mask filters are considered 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 product 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.
