Filtering unit and filtering equipment incorporating said unit
First Claim
1. Filtering unit for incorporation in a filtering casing having walls, said unit comprising a housing having walls, and, within the housing, an anit-aerosol first filtering stage, a second filtering state, the first filtering stage being superposed on the second filtering stage, an inlet passage for gas to be filtered on an upstream side of the first filtering stage and a discharge passage for filtered gas on a downstream side of the second filtering stage relative to flow of air through the filtering unit, one of said passages having peripheral sealed junction means secured to said unit, for cooperation with a wall of the casing, and discrete first and second manually disengageable sealed impervious films individually peripherally sealingly adhered to the walls of the housing for closing the inlet and discharge passages, respectively, of the filtering unit.

Abstract
The invention relates to the filtration of air according to the N.B.C. method. A filtering unit (1) adapted to be incorporated in a casing of a filtering equipment comprises, in a housing, a filtering stage employing "filter paper" superimposed on a filtering stage based on "activated charcoal", an inlet passage (12) for gas to be filtered on the upstream side of the "paper" stage and a discharge passage (4) for filtered gas on the downstream side of the "charcoal" stage, one (12) of the passages being equipped with a peripheral sealed junction device (13,13'"'"') adapted to cooperate with a wall of the casing. The inlet and discharge passages (12,16) of the filtering unit are closed by sealed closure members (15,16) peripherally connected to the walls (7) of the housing and manually disengageable.
