A1 Organic Vapours & Acid Gases Cartridge for Spray Paint

Headline: Breathe Safe in the Booth. Defend Against Spray Paint Vapours & Gases.

Sub-headline: The industry-standard A1 cartridge, engineered specifically for organic vapours and acid gases found in paints, lacquers, and solvents.

Body:

Take the hazard out of your haze. Our A1 Organic Vapours & Acid Gases cartridges are scientifically formulated to provide reliable respiratory protection in spray painting, industrial coating, and chemical handling environments. Whether you’re in an auto body shop, an industrial facility, or a professional workshop, this cartridge is your essential defence against the dual threats of harmful solvents and acidic gases.

Spray painting releases a complex mix of hazardous airborne contaminants, primarily organic vapours from solvents and potentially acid gases from hardeners or decomposition. Standard dust filters aren’t enough. The A1 cartridge is the specialized solution, combining two layers of protection into one robust, easy-to-use cartridge.

What This Cartridge Protects You From:

• Organic Vapours (OV): The primary threat in spray paint. Protects against vapours from solvents like:

  • Toluene

  • Xylene

  • Acetone

  • Mineral Spirits

  • Ketones

  • And many other paint-related solvents

• Acid Gases (AG): A secondary but significant hazard. Protects against gases like:

  • Chlorine

  • Hydrogen Chloride

  • Sulfur Dioxide

  • Hydrogen Fluoride

Key Features & Benefits:

• Dual-Layer Filtration: Advanced activated charcoal for organic vapours and a specialized chemical media for acid gases provide comprehensive protection in a single cartridge.

• NIOSH Approved: Meets or exceeds rigorous NIOSH standards (e.g., 42 CFR 84) for reliable, trusted performance you can count on.

• Longer Service Life: The high-capacity bed of filtering media is engineered for extended use, providing more protection time per cartridge and reducing change-out frequency.

• Universal Compatibility: Features a standard bayonet connection, making it compatible with most major brands of double-cartridge respirators.

• Easy to Use: Color-coded (often Yellow or Yellow/Brown) for quick identification and simple, tool-free installation.

Pair for Maximum Protection:
For complete safety during spray painting, always pair this A1 cartridge with P100 Particulate Filters. The P100 filters will block paint mists, dust, and metal fumes, while the A1 cartridge captures the harmful vapours and gases. This combination provides the ultimate trifecta of protection: Vapors, Gases, and Particles.

Important Safety Notice:

• This cartridge does not protect against ammonia or carbon monoxide.

• Cartridges have a limited service life. Replace them immediately when you can detect odor, taste, or increased breathing resistance. Follow OSHA or your local safety regulations for cartridge change-out schedules.

• Always perform a seal check on your respirator before entering a contaminated area
