Product Update: Scrubber Cartridge Scrim Filters

The scrim filters used top and bottom of the scrubber cartridge have been upgraded to a thicker/ stiffer material which does not fray so readily on the cut edges. 

Two shapes are provided: the first to be inserted into the scrubber cartridge is the same “flower” shape as the old one which is held nicely in place by the Sodalime. Once you have filled the scrubber with sufficient Sodalime, the circular scrim filter should be placed on top of the Sodalime, followed by the spring loaded pusher plate.

Note: With this thicker material it is important NOT to use the “flower” shaped filter against the spring loaded pusher plate. The added friction of the thicker material may slightly impede the pusher plate’s function of taking up any settling of the Sofnolime during transport. 

The following information will be included with each scrim kit that is ordered:

Please Note: Work of breathing (WOB) is not affected in any way. 

The new scrim filter kit is available to order online here.

    Hi.

    Went to the factory to drop off Lid for service and while there was shown around the workshop.

    Was told about the upgrade so had it done there on the spot with new spring fitted to the spider plate. No more faffing about the curled over edges getting caught under spider plate.

    Great service and information from Tony and all his technicians.

    A Great Bristish Company!
