Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the difference between SGE 400/3 and SGE 400/3BB?A: The SGE 400/3 has a silicone face seal. The SGE 400/3BB has a butyl rubber face seal, which provides superior resistance to chemical warfare agents (nerve agents, mustard gas) and meets stricter CBRN requirements. The 400/3BB is also slightly lighter. If you need maximum chemical protection, consider the 400/3BB version in our NBC Protective Kit.
Q: Does this include a filter?A: Yes. One sealed NBC filter is included. We recommend stocking spare filters for extended use or multiple threats.
Q: What does the filter protect against?A: The included NBC filter protects against chemical warfare agents (sarin, mustard gas, VX), biological threats (bacteria, viruses, spores), radioactive particulates, industrial chemicals, tear gas (CS/CN), and toxic vapors.
Q: How long does the filter last?A: Sealed and stored properly, filters have approximately a 10-year shelf life. Once opened or exposed to contaminants, replace after use or per manufacturer guidance based on exposure level.
Q: Why does this mask have 3 filter ports?A: The left, right, and center ports let you position the filter where it's most comfortable and least obstructive. Shooters typically mount on the opposite side of their dominant eye for unobstructed rifle shouldering.
Q: Can I use other 40mm NATO filters with this mask?A: Yes. The SGE 400/3 accepts any 40mm NATO threaded filter (EN148-1 / DIN 3183), including the NBC-77 SOF and other CBRN filters.
Q: Is this mask reusable?A: Yes. The mask itself is designed for repeated use with proper maintenance. Filters should be replaced after exposure to contaminants.
Q: What certifications does this mask have?A: EN136:1998 certified. EU PPE Category III per Regulation 2016/425.
