Product Information
Full details
These GVS SPR670 A2P3 replacement filters are for users of GVS Elipse Low Profile Masks (SPR668, SPR669, SPR673, SPR674) needing protection against organic gases and dust. Their key benefit is providing reliable, comfortable respiratory protection with low breathing resistance for extended use in demanding environments. A potential consideration is that they are specific to certain GVS mask models. Key features include A2P3 filtration, integrated gas and particulate protection, and a lifespan of up to 3 years.

FAQs
What specific contaminants do the GVS SPR670 filters protect against?
These filters provide A2P3 protection, meaning they are effective against organic gases (like solvents and fumes) and fine particulate matter (such as dust, mists, and metal fumes).
How long do these replacement filters typically last?
Under normal conditions, the GVS SPR670 filters have a lifespan of up to 3 years. However, lifespan can be significantly reduced by heavy use, high contaminant concentrations, or humid environments. Replace them if breathing becomes difficult or if odors are detected.
Are these filters compatible with all GVS masks?
No, these SPR670 filters are specifically designed for and compatible only with GVS Elipse Low Profile Masks, including models SPR668, SPR669, SPR673, and SPR674.
Can I clean and reuse these filters?
No, these filters are disposable and cannot be cleaned or reused. Attempting to clean them will compromise their protective capabilities. They must be replaced when saturated, damaged, or expired.
What is the difference between A2 and P3 ratings?
The 'A2' rating indicates protection against organic vapors up to a certain concentration (typically 5000 ppm or 5 mg/L). The 'P3' rating signifies the highest level of protection against solid and liquid aerosols (particulates) like dust and mists.
How do I know when to replace the filters?
Replace the filters when you start to smell or taste the contaminant, when breathing becomes noticeably more difficult, if the filters are damaged, or after a period of 3 years from the date of manufacture or first use, whichever comes first.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty breathing through the mask
Check if the filters are correctly installed and fully sealed. If the filters are old or saturated, they may need replacement. Ensure no other obstructions are present.
Mask does not create a proper seal
Ensure the mask is clean and the sealing edge is free of debris. Adjust the straps for a snug fit. Check that the filters are correctly seated and not interfering with the mask's seal.
Odor or irritation detected while wearing the mask
This indicates the filters may be saturated or bypassed. Replace the filters immediately. Ensure the mask is the correct type for the hazard and that it fits properly.
Filters appear damaged
Do not use the mask with damaged filters. Replace them with new, undamaged GVS SPR670 filters.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: These SPR670 filters are exclusively designed for GVS Elipse Low Profile Masks, specifically models SPR668, SPR669, SPR673, and SPR674. They are not interchangeable with other mask brands or GVS models.
Setup (Filter Replacement):
- Ensure the GVS Elipse mask is clean and dry.
- Carefully remove the old filters from the mask. This usually involves a twist-and-pull motion.
- Align the new SPR670 filter with the corresponding port on the mask.
- Push and twist the filter until it securely locks into place. A proper seal is crucial for effective protection.
- Repeat for the other side of the mask.
Care:
- Store filters in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and pollutants when not in use.
- Keep filters in their original packaging until ready for installation.
- Inspect filters for any damage before each use. Do not use if damaged.
- Replace filters according to the manufacturer's recommended schedule or when breathing becomes difficult, or if the odor of contaminants is detected. The typical lifespan is up to 3 years, but this can vary based on usage and environment.
