Pprotective masks against chemical warfare agents, biological agents and radiation.
Greetings.
The fairly-standard definition used in the US Army for such an individual mask is "personal protective mask against chemical warfare agents, biological agents (or weapons) and radiation" (the generic term 'radiation' encompasses radioactive particles, debris and contaminated areas where troops might enter and operate).
Shorthand terms used in comnercial ads and such public media include:
o "CBR protective mask"
o "NBC protective mask"
("NBC" = Nuclear, Biological, Chemical).
HTH.
Khair, in sha' Allah.

Gas Masks for Protection against
Gas Masks for Protection Against Chemical, Biological, and Radioactive Threats
or for a more literal translation:
Protective Masks for Chemical Warfare Gases, and Bilogical and Radioactive Particles
But I think the first suggestion covers the real intent of your title. Also note that while the mask protects against more than gases, the term "gas mask" has become a conventional term to distinquish it from other types of masks such welding masks or dust masks.
