Respirator Filters are replaceable filters for the Half Mask Respirator. They are an accessory item that is used up bit by bit while the mask is worn. They weigh a little under a third of a unit.
A Half Mask Respirator blocks bad smells only while its filters still have some life left. Spare filters keep the mask working through long jobs, such as clearing corpses from a base.
Used filters can be recharged and come back as Respirator Filters - Recharged, with the same stats. New filters are found in tool stores, morgues and laboratories. The Tailor is the best occupation for accessories. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The filters work inside the mask. Attach Filter to Respirator fits them to a Half Mask Respirator. Remove Respirator Filters takes them out again. A respirator with no filters becomes the Half Mask Respirator (No Filters).
The Recharge Filters recipe refreshes spent filters. The Research Craft option on a Half Mask Respirator teaches that recipe.
