- The most versatile mask available,
providing excellent filtration against most types of pollution a cyclist
is likely to encounter
- Uses a Dynamic Activated Charcoal Cloth filter to filter the worst of urban pollution
- Also uses a HepA-type filter to screen out sub-micron pollutants such as pollens and respirable dusts
- Includes
two Techno valves to allow easier exhalation, which is particularly
important as they release heat, water vapour and Carbon Dioxide
- Comes in two sizes, with a contoured shape for a good seal and comfortable fit and Velcro pads for easy application
- Made from hypo-allergenic Neoprene giving a comfortable and secure fit
- The filter is replaceable, and is designed to be effective for at least 1 month in normal daily use
Can A Respro® Mask protect against ? There
is limited information on this specific virus but it is part of a
family of viruses that have been previously researched and documented.
The mechanics of capture remain consistent with other airborne viral
pathogensUse a respiratory mask that incorporates an
Activated Charcoal Cloth layer together with a submicron particle filter
layer (combination filter) as it has the ability to adsorb viral matter
in both the micro and the nano range of sizes by means of entrapment
and adsorption. Whilst a P2/P3 industry face mask will trap particulates
which may well carry viral matter (micro size), they are seldom bespoke
and only come in one size. This increases the chance of a misfit by the
user, especially if used by children or if they are not shown how to
fit a mask properly or undergo a fit test. This means that a percentage
of unfiltered air will bypass the filter completely. What these masks
cannot do is adsorb the viral matter on its own, this happens with DACC
as it operates on both a different principle and size scale (nano size).
Whether that rated mask is P1/2 or 3, is not a significant factor. The
correct fit and the seal are!
Suitable masks with a combination filter:
Techno Mask - (suitable for commuting)Cinqro Mask - (suitable for Sport)Ultralight Combo - (suitable for Sport)Sportsta Combo - (suitable for Sport)Techno Plus - (suitable for Sport)A
combination filter would be suitable for exhaust pollution (VOC's and
PM 2.5's) airborne viral and bacterial matter, and cigarette smokeA
combination filter has both a Hepa-type filter layer and a DACC layer.
This combination of Hepa-type filter layer and DACC in one single filter
provides submicron (smaller than PM 2.5) dust filtering capability,
together with DACC capability for filtering gases (VOC's /Acid gases),
vapours and viral matter in the nano range of sizes by means of
adsorption. It is the best type of filter available in our range for
dealing with the broad spectrum of vehicle and non vehicular pollutants
commonly found in major cities across the globe
