Mira Safety VK-530 Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Filter Cartridge

Mira Safety VK-530 Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Filter Cartridge - Transform Your Gas Mask into a Smoke Respirator

Protect your family in emergencies and bushfires with the VK-530, turning your gas mask into a smoke-ready respirator. In the Western United States, where wildfires threaten at any moment, and thousands may need to evacuate, having the right gear is crucial. According to studies by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), over 71,000 homes are lost in fires each year. The VK-530 gas mask filters offer a solution for the unprepared. Unlike typical filters, the VK-530 doesn't just shield you from industrial chemicals but also tackles carbon monoxide, reducing the risk of smoke inhalation. It transforms CO into CO2, making it safer for you to breathe. Forget about keeping a separate fire/smoke hood – with the VK-530, you can use your existing gas mask for protection during house fires or wildfires. Whether you already own a gas mask or are considering getting one, these versatile filters shouldn't be overlooked. Be prepared for survival and emergencies with the VK-530.

The reliable design ensures comprehensive defense against a broad spectrum of toxic industrial chemicals, smoke, and particulates. Rated at A2B2E2K2HgNO20COP3R, these respirator mask filters can be used in environments with as little as 19.5% oxygen. They offer protection against organic gases and vapors with a boiling point >65°C and safeguard against inorganic gases and vapours, sulfur dioxide, ammonia, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, mercury vapours, and compounds, as well as particles of toxic and highly toxic substances (P3). Each filter is securely sealed and clearly labeled with its expiration date, boasting a five-year shelf life. With a manufacturer's warranty ensuring performance to specifications, these filters are proudly manufactured in Italy.

These filter cartridges will work with the MIRA Safety CM-6M Tactical Gas Mask - Full-Face Respirator for CBRN Defense as well as all 40mm NATO threaded gas masks.

How to Store your VK-530 Smoke Cartridge

Proper Storage for VK-530 Smoke Cartridges Ensure optimal performance by storing VK-530 filters within a temperature range of 2°C (35.6°F) to 55°C (131°F) with humidity below 80%. Keep them away from strong vibrations and shield them from sunlight, oxidants, shocks, and anything that could cause them to fall.
