anybody know the typical pore size for 1st stage steel sintered filters? I know that generally the smaller the better but at some point you will run into a flow restriction problem...What is typical for this application? It is fairly easy to get a range of these..I'm looking at 1 micron down to about .2 micron. What do you other DIYers use for your maintenance.
This site shows 2.5 microns is typical for respirable dust is the USA
Particle Sizes
Also can anyone recommend a source for these?
I am doing mostly Mares and Aqualung regs which use the flat disc shaped sintered filters
thanks all
