Product details
Match your RPB PX5 powered air-purifying respirator filter to the job. Every PX5 filter and cartridge removes up to 99.97% of particles down to 0.12 microns. The combination cartridges add carbon protection against solvents, acid gases, and more. Whether you're blasting, sanding, spraying solvent-borne coatings, or working around harsh chemicals, there's a PX5 cartridge built for it.
Swapping is safe and simple. The filter door won't mount to the unit unless a filter is in place, and the PX5 warns you when airflow drops because a filter needs replacing. Please note that the Combination HE+ OV/AG and Multi Gas options require a large filter door to attach to the PX5 Unit
