SPECTRUM XB - 17
A 50/50 Blend of HS - 600* and Activated Carbon

Through adsorption and oxidization Spectrum HS-600* will adequately control a large number of airborne contaminants. There are situations however, where a blend of this product's reactive chemistry and the adsorbent properties of activated carbon are advised. A common example is where hydrocarbons are present along with acid gases. In this environment, the higher molecular weight hydrocarbons may cause desorption of the lower molecular weight acid gases and thus limit HS-600's effectiveness. In this case Spectrum XB-17 may be an appropriate solution.

The following is a partial list of gases that can be controlled by Spectrum XB-17:
