A respirator cartridge. Designed to fit the most common gas masks mounts. In-game description
The Gas Mask Filter is an attachable filter for the Gas Mask and NBC Respirator in DayZ. A filter must be attached to a gas mask to enter a contaminated zone without contracting the contamination illness, alongside wearing a full NBC suit.
Filters used outside of contamination zones will deplete after around 80 minutes, whereas using it inside a zone will deplete it in 8 minutes. Filters can be refilled using Charcoal Tablets. Completely filling an empty filter requires 15 tablets.
When the Gas Mask Filter is nearly depleted, the survivor can be heard gasping for air due to the lack of oxygen. This is an audible cue that it's time to switch out the filter or get out of the toxic zone and remove the mask.
Wearing a mask equipped with a non-depleted filter will lower the survivor’s Stamina recovery rate and increase its drain.
