The user shall contact the health and safety representative to ensure he is given the proper protection by the
personal eyewear during live working conditions. This helmet is intended primarily to provide protection to the
wearer against falling objects and consequential brain injury and skull fracture. Integrated face shield/over
spectacles provide limited eye and/or face protection against flying fragments, chips, particles, sand and similar
hazards.
The helmet and eye and face protectors satisfy the requirements of (EU) Regulations 2016/425 and Regulation
2016/425 on personal protective equipment, as amended to apply in GB. The helmet is certified according to EN
397: 2012 + A1:2012 (options as marked on the shell) and EN 50365: 2002 for non-vented helmets. Face shields
are certified according to EN 166:2001, EN 170:2002. The face shield mounted on the helmet protects the user
against low-voltage electrical arc short-circuits and is certified according to GS-ET-29:2011-05 (GA90034) or GS-
ET-29:2019-06 (GA90051). The over spectacles are certified according to EN 166:2001 and EN 170:2002
(GA90035) or EN 172:2001 (GA90050).
Depending on the individual helmet configuration, the helmet may be marked as explained below:

WARNING!
• It is imperative that the operating manual be read and observed when using the product.
• The helmet is made for intended use only.
• Helmets absorb the energy of a blow by partial destruction of, or damage to, the helmet. Even though
such damage may not be readily apparent, any helmet subjected to a severe impact should be replaced.

EN 50365: Electrical class 0 for installations with nominal voltage up to 1000 V AC and
1500 V DC. The electrically insulating helmet cannot be used alone. It is also necessary
to use other insulating protective equipment according to the risks involved in the work.
Check voltages likely to be encountered, do not exceed the limits of helmet and do not
use where the insulation properties could be compromised.
Refer to user manual.
