During switching operations on an electrical substation, network interruptions, or opening a disconnector — operators wear a full protective hood against the effects of an Arc Flash.
Between two interventions, however, they must communicate, check their surroundings, or simply breathe comfortably. With a fixed face shield, these actions are difficult or they often require a partial removal of the equipment — thus resulting in increased exposure and longer interventions.
PENTA Electrical Safety Products launches the ARC-LFH40 hood with a liftable face shield:
- Lift-up face shield and side ventilation system for improved breathability and communication
- Grey-tinted face shield for excellent colour recognition
- Transparent face shield covering the chin and sides of the face, providing a very wide field of view and thus a better understanding of the work environment
- ATPV 40 cal/cm², ELIM 37 cal/cm² (EN 61482-1-1) and APC 2 (EN 61482-1-2) protection
This hood offers:
- Compliance with EN IEC 62819:2023 and EN ISO 16321-1:2022 standards
- Full protection of the head, neck, shoulders, and upper torso
- Prolonged visual and respiratory comfort
- Compatibility with the ARC-40 range (ARCVES40 jacket, ARCSAL40 dungarees, ARCGAN40 over-gloves)
At PENTA Electrical Safety Products, we make your protection a priority. With the ARC-LFH40, we offer electricians equipment that adapts to their movements, without ever compromising their protection.
