Description
Gas filter ABEK1 is a multi-gas respiratory filter cartridge for use with compatible full-face or half-mask respirators in laboratory and occupational safety applications. Classified as ABEK1, the filter is intended to address a combined spectrum of gas and vapour hazards as defined for this type designation, and it is specified in accordance with EN 14387, the European standard for gas filters and combined filters used with respiratory protective devices. The filters come from manufacturer 3M and are supplied for integration into established respiratory protection setups. Packaged as 8 pc(s) with a total pack weight of 1,000 kg, the set supports multi-user laboratories or facilities that maintain spare filter stock for routine change-out schedules. ABEK1 filters are commonly selected where mixed inorganic and organic gases and vapours may be encountered during chemical handling, solvent work, or general laboratory operations, always within the limits of the chosen mask system and local risk assessment. Using standardised EN 14387 filter elements helps keep respiratory programmes consistent across shifts and sites. This ABEK1 gas filter pack provides a practical consumable supply for breathing-protection systems that rely on replaceable multi-gas cartridges.
This article is part of Respirator filters & cartridges, in Respiratory protection.

What is this article?
Gas filters, filter ABEK1, from 3M, acc. EN 14387, 8 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes 3M for laboratory use. It sits in Respirator filters & cartridges, inside Respiratory protection, in Lab safety equipment.
A filter or a cartridge is marked for the hazard it treats: a particle filter, an organic-vapour cartridge, an acid-gas cartridge, or a combination. The colour and the class code are the specification. A particle filter does not stop a solvent vapour. Cartridges expire once opened, and they expire faster in a high concentration.
A respirator filters the air the person breathes, or supplies other air. An FFP mask is a particle filter worn on the face. A half-mask or a full-face mask takes cartridges, and the cartridge is chosen for the gas or the particle. The mask that is not sealed to the face does not filter. Fit is part of the product. Standards are listed under ISO respiratory protection. The rule is the PPE Regulation. Workplace practice is EU-OSHA.
