HELMET PETZL VERTEX VENT HI-OR VENTILATED. SIZE 53-63CM

Ergonomic ventilated high-visibility protective helmet for work use. Equipped with reflectors visible in all directions and glow-in-the-dark forehead light clips to make the user easier to see in darkness and poor conditions, enhancing work safety. New model design and compatibility with additional accessories from 4/2019. Designed for versatile use in both fall-risk environments and flat terrain work. Particularly suitable for construction work, industrial applications, 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 covers are open: 26.77 cm². The new Petzl Vizir eye shield, Protector visor shield, Vizen full-face shield, or Vizen Mesh visor can be quickly attached to the helmet using the included EasyClip quick-attachment clips, replacing the black side pieces on the helmet. All Bollé Safety electric welding masks can also be attached using compatible adapters. Removal requires no tools—just press the buttons. Side mounts for hearing protectors. Compatible with most common helmet-mounted hearing protectors (e.g., Sordin). Identical mounting points on front and back for quick attachment of forehead light plates or ID card holders. Integrated side mounts for attaching forehead lights via forehead band. Rear attachment points for neck protection. Dual selector on the chin strap: The user can select the EN12492 setting for fall-risk situations (chin strap remains secured after a 50 daN (kg) jolt) or the EN397 standard setting for ground-level movement (chin strap releases at a maximum of 25 daN (kg) jolt). The 6-point harness keeps the helmet securely in place even in difficult working positions and offers 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 outside, are simple to use even with gloves on. The Flip&Fit inner structure folds 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 structure. Vertex helmets offer excellent compatibility with other protective equipment. Recommended for use with GVS Elipse respirators and Bollé Safety eye shields.
