5000 SERIES PARTICULATE FILTERS

(filter 5911, solid and liquid particles & filter 501, filter retainer)

These filters are enhanced with electrostatically charged fibres to trap particulates within the filter media. As particulate filters load up with the contaminant, they typically become more efficient; however, they also become harder to breathe through. AS /NZS 1716 uses a classification system to identify the different types of particulate protection required.
