If you buy a filter in the game(which most don't do since you get enough filters it shouldn't be an issue) they last a lot longer, like a half hour. The idea being your filters, being scavenged, are almost done already. Still a bit silly though since they'd be bad by sitting open in a contaminated environment.

Who's that?

Adsorption is the adhesion of molecules of gas, liquid, or dissolved solids to a surface. This process creates a film of the adsorbate (the molecules or atoms being accumulated) on the surface of the adsorbent. It differs from absorption, in which a fluid permeates or is dissolved by a liquid or solid.

I have a question. I just got a gas mask the rubber kind, and was wondering if you have to take the filter off when your not using it or if you can just leave it on.

How long would you figure a Swiss Schutzfilter 74 would last if it remained sealed? Given that they're sealed in plastic shells that were melted/welded shut, I'm not really seeing how they could expire.

So how do u know when the filter is expired? Do u stop breathing? How can u physically tell

Could u take M3 filters off mask and rap them with clingfilm to stop air getting to them while your not using mask would this make them last longer ?

where can I buy tear gas filters (nato 40mm thread)...(they seem difficult to find) ...any place brand you can recommend?

I have a half mask filter for this covid19 situation... It's rated for gas and air, but I don't expose it to chemicals or dust in a work environment, only for filtering out covid19.. how long do those last? It's rated as A1 on the filter... How long do you feel it would keep out something like covid19..?

I have a filter which came with an S10 Mask. Its a Nato NBC Filter and it just says it was manufactured and sealed Oct 2003. The rest of the info is part munbers and stock numbers etc. Its still sealed tightly in its foil bag so how long would the expiry date be. They are made in the UK by Protector Technologies Ltd

I have a few questions. Question 1: Can any modern Russian filter work well with any GOST threaded mask ( as long as it's the right size of course )? Question 2: Since it's not really possible to know exactly how long a filter will last in action, what signs will let you know that it's failing and you need to swap it out? Question 3: Are there any modern versions of the larger filters that are safe to use? Question 4: Can you recommend a cheap filter I can use with my gp-5 for Halloween?

@Weaponsandstuff93

6 жыл бұрын

1. Yes as long as you don't get a proprietary filter, all modern Russian filters are GOST threads. 2. If you detect odour through the filter, the activated charcoal layer is failing, if it's hard to breathe through the filter, the particulate layer has clogged up. 3. Not as far as I'm aware. 4. Any NATO filter will work if you force it on, won't make an air-tight seal but is fine cosmetically, you might ruin the filter port doing that though.
