Service Life of Chemical Cartridges and Filters

6000 series cartridges should be used before the expiration date on cartridge packaging. The useful service
life of these cartridges will depend upon the activity of the wearer (breathing rate), specific type, volatility
and concentration of contaminants and environmental conditions such as humidity, pressure, and temperature.
Cartridges must be replaced in accordance with an established change schedule, or earlier if smell, taste or
irritation from the contaminant is detected.
Filters must be replaced if they become damaged, soiled or if increased breathing resistance occurs. N-series
filters should not be used in environments containing oils. R-series filters may be limited to 8 hours of
continuous or intermittent use if oil aerosols are present. In environments containing only oil aerosols, P-
series filters should be replaced after 40 hours of use or 30 days, whichever is first.
