Description

Availability Note: Current lead times are 6–8 weeks.

Compatibility: 40 mm NATO (STANAG 4155 / EN 148-1 Rd 40×1/7") threaded respirators

Engineered for Extreme Riot Control Scenarios

The MIRA Safety P-CAN® Police Gas Mask Filter delivers unparalleled protection against prolonged exposure to riot control agents (RCAs), including CS gas (2-chlorobenzalmalononitrile), CN gas (chloroacetophenone), and OC pepper spray (oleoresin capsicum). Designed explicitly for law enforcement and tactical operators, this hydrophobic filter combines military-grade CBRN technology with 3× the activated carbon of standard filters—ensuring 12+ hours of continuous operation in high-threat environments, even under heavy rain or extreme humidity.

Key Features & Technical Advantages

1. Superior RCA Protection

  • Targeted Filtration: Certified to EN 14387:2004 + A1:2008 for vapor-phase CS/CN removal; validated for OC aerosol mitigation.
  • Extended Service Life: 250 cm³ activated carbon bed (vs. ~90 cm³ in typical filters) resists saturation  longer.

2. All-Weather Reliability

  • Hydrophobic P3 Layer: Embedded particulate filter repels water ingress, maintaining functionality in rain, snow, or 100% RH.
  • Temperature Resilience: Operates at −32 °C (−25 °F) to +70 °C (159 °F). Resists salt spray degradation (see service-life note).

3. Tactical Efficiency & Logistics

  • 12+ Hour Protection: Enables extended mission duration without filter swaps.
  • 20-Year Shelf Life: Vacuum-sealed, date-stamped (month/year on label), and black canister for easy inventory ID.
  • Lightweight Profile: 290 g (10.2 oz), 110 mm diameter (4.3"), 75 mm height.

4. Compliance & Interoperability

  • NATO Standard Threading (STANAG 4155): Fits 40 mm gas masks fielded by military/LE agencies globally.
  • CE-Certified: Meets EU PPE requirements; compliant with EN 14387:2004 + A1:2008.
  • P3 Particulate Filtration: >99.95% efficiency vs. NaCl & paraffin oil aerosols (EN references).
  • Classification flags: A2 | P3 | SX (LE agents) | D (dolomite test) | R (reusable).

Environmental Resilience

  • Water Exposure: Hydrophobic P3 media prevents performance loss during sustained rainfall.
  • Humidity Range: Functional from 5% to 100% RH (non-condensing).
  • Salt Spray: Will not deteriorate canister; prolonged exposure may limit in-use service life to 12–24 hours.

Storage & Maintenance

  • Store sealed in original packaging at −5 °C to +30 °C (23–86 °F); humidity < 80%; avoid UV/ozone sources.
  • Labeling: Month and year are clearly printed on the filter label for shelf-life tracking.
  • Do not regenerate. Never clean with compressed air or water. Do not use past expiration date.

Disposal of P-CAN® Filters

After use, remove from the respirator and treat as special refuse/hazardous waste. Dispose per local regulations for solid waste based on the substances filtered (gases or particles).

Why P-CAN® Outperforms Standard Police Filters

  • Carbon Capacity: 3× greater adsorption window vs. typical police filters.
  • Environmental Hardening: Functions where conventional filters fail (monsoon rains, arctic conditions).
  • Lifecycle Efficiency: 20-year shelf life streamlines agency logistics and reduces procurement churn.

Trusted by NATO units, CBRN response teams, and law enforcement worldwide.
