Filter 6059 for organic vapors ABEK1 (2 filters) for half mask Series 6000 3M

The 3M 6059 ABEK1 filter protects against combinations of organic vapors (boiling point >65ºC), inorganic gases, acid gases, and ammonia.

Suitable for half masks 3M Series 6000 and full masks.

If you need respiratory protection against various gases and vapors, use the 3M™ gas and vapor filters from the 6000 series. Each filter has a color-coded band according to the EN14387 classification system to show the type of protection they offer; simply choose the appropriate filter type based on your needs or the requirements of company policies. These lightweight filters combine protection with comfort and are compatible with our range of reusable half masks and full masks, allowing safe work in hazardous environments. They offer low breathing resistance and a good balance when attached to the mask, and are designed to optimize the field of vision.

They attach quickly and easily, and can be used on any reusable 3M™ mask with a bayonet connection. They can also be used in combination with 3M™ series 5000 particle filters and a 3M™ 501 filter connector to create a system that combines protection from gases, vapors, and particles.

FILTER SELECTION

DURABILITY OF FILTERS

The filters used in industrial environments have a lifespan that depends on factors such as humidity, concentration of contaminants in the environment, temperature, usage time… and should be replaced when breathing resistance is felt or when odor or taste of the contaminant being exposed to is perceived. Given the variety of work environments, each with its own characteristics, we cannot precisely indicate the durability of the filters.

Generally, the lifespan of the filters is 5 years from manufacture, but it is recommended not to use them beyond 6 months from their first use unless one of the reasons for replacement mentioned in the previous paragraph has occurred. (The lifespan of an unopened chemical filter is usually indicated on its label. Once the filter is unsealed, even if not used, it has a maximum duration of 6 months, regardless of the expiration date indicated).
