HELMET PETZL VERTEX VENT GREEN EN397, EN12492, ANSI, 53-63CM
Product code
6315822
Ergonomic ventilated safety helmet designed for work use. A new model from 4/2019 in terms of structure and compatibility with additional accessories. Designed for versatile applications, both in fall-risk environments and on flat terrain. Particularly suitable for construction work, industrial needs, confined spaces, rescue operations, asphalt work, snow removal, and other demanding tasks involving heat.
The ventilation openings on the sides can be easily closed from the outside, for example during rain or snowfall. Total surface area of ventilation openings when side flaps are open: 26.77 cm². The new Petzl Vizir eye shield, Protector visor guard, Vizen full-face shield, or Vizen Mesh visor can be quickly attached to the helmet using the included EasyClip quick-release clips, replacing the black side pads on the helmet. All Bollé Safety electric welding masks can also be similarly attached using available adapters. Removal is tool-free, requiring only button presses. Side mounts for hearing protection compatible with most common helmet-mounted hearing protectors (e.g., Sordin). Identical mounting points on front and back for quick attachment of forehead lights or ID card holders. Integrated side mounts for securing a forehead light via a headband. Rear attachment points for a neck guard.
The neck strap features a Dual selector: the user can set it to EN12492 compliance for fall-risk conditions (neck strap remains secured after a 50 daN (kg) shock), or to EN397 compliance for ground-level work (neck strap releases at a maximum of 25 daN (kg) shock).
The 6-point harness keeps the helmet securely in place even in difficult working positions and provides excellent comfort. Thanks to the CenterFit adjustment system (53–63 cm), the helmet is always correctly centered and fits exceptionally well. The two side adjustment wheels, easily operated from the outside, are simple to use even with gloves on. The Flip&Fit inner liner folds neatly into the helmet during transport and is easy to unfold. The helmet has no obstructive, neck-straining, or field-of-vision-limiting brim, nor rigidizing ribs attached to the shell.
Vertex helmets offer excellent compatibility with other protective equipment. Recommended for use with GVS Elipse respirators and Bollé Safety eye shields.
