• Manufacturer: Dräger (a global leader in safety and medical technology)

• Model: 1140 A1B2E2K1HgNO P3 R D/CO 20 P3 R D

• Type: Combination filter with both gas/vapor and particulate filtration

Key Features:

1. A1 – Organic Gases and Vapors

   • Protection against organic gases and vapors, including solvents and hydrocarbons with a boiling point greater than 65°C (such as those found in paints, solvents, adhesives, and fuels).

2. B2 – Inorganic Gases and Vapors

   • Provides protection against inorganic gases such as chlorine (Cl2), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and ammonia (NH3).

3. E2 – Acid Gases

   • Filters out acidic gases such as hydrogen chloride (HCl), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and similar irritants.

4. K1 – Ammonia and Amine Gases

   • Specifically designed to protect against ammonia (NH3) and amines, which are often found in agricultural or chemical industry applications.

5. Hg – Mercury Vapors

   • Protection against mercury vapor, which is toxic and can cause severe health issues if inhaled.

6. NO – Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2)

   • This filter also provides protection against nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a harmful gas produced by industrial processes and combustion.

7. P3 – Particulate Filtration

   • The P3 particulate filter offers the highest level of protection against fine dust, fumes, and aerosols, ensuring safe air for the wearer in environments where fine particles may be a hazard.

8. R – Reusable

   • The "R" designation means this filter is reusable, which makes it more cost-effective over time, especially for long-term industrial use.

9. D – Dräger Regeneration Technology

   • The filter is equipped with Dräger’s regeneration technology, enhancing the durability and lifespan of the filter under demanding conditions.

10. CO – Carbon Monoxide (CO)

    • This filter offers protection against carbon monoxide (CO), a colorless, odorless, and highly toxic gas that is commonly produced during combustion processes.

11. 20 P3 R D – 20mm Thread Compatibility

    • This version of the filter is compatible with a 20mm thread connection, making it suitable for use with Dräger half masks and full-face masks that fit this threading system.

Applications:

• Industrial Environments: The filter is ideal for use in chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries where workers are exposed to multiple types of hazardous gases, vapors, and particulates.

• Mining and Metalworking: Its ability to protect against mercury vapor (Hg) and nitrogen dioxide (NO) makes it useful in mining or metalworking industries where such contaminants may be prevalent.

• Emergency and Rescue Operations: The combination of protection against both gases and particulates is useful for emergency responders in environments with multiple toxic hazards.

• Research and Laboratories: In labs where various chemicals, including organic and inorganic substances, are handled, this filter provides essential protection.

Key Benefits:

• Comprehensive Protection: This filter offers a wide range of protection from gases, vapors, and particulates, ensuring that the user is safeguarded against various airborne hazards.

• Durability and Cost-Effectiveness: With Dräger's regeneration technology (R), the filter can be used for extended periods, making it more cost-efficient in long-term applications.

• Versatile Application: It is compatible with Dräger respiratory masks and can be used across a variety of industries and environments.

• Multi-Contaminant Filtration: It is particularly effective in environments where a wide range of contaminants are present, including organic, inorganic, acidic, and toxic gases, as well as particulates.

Maintenance and Replacement:

• Filter Lifespan: The filter should be replaced when you notice a decrease in breathing comfort or when the protective capacity is reached (based on exposure levels and manufacturer guidelines).

• Check Compatibility: Ensure the filter is properly fitted to the appropriate Dräger respiratory mask, and use it within its specified operating conditions to ensure optimal performance.

Conclusion:

The Dräger Combination Filter 1140 A1B2E2K1HgNO P3 R D/CO 20 P3 R D is a robust and versatile filter that offers comprehensive protection against a broad range of hazardous gases, vapors, and particulates. Its reusability and long-lasting protection make it ideal for workers in demanding industrial, chemical, and emergency environments.
