1. PURPOSE
SECRA helmet protects upper head area against injuries from falling objects,
splashes of molten metal and electric shock by preventing electric current flow
through the head, as well as against electric arc hazards. It is particularly
recommended as personal protective equipment in live line working.
2. ADJUSTMENTS
The helmet must properly fit the head. To adjust the helmet to the head
circumference, set the chinstrap length and the helmet height accordingly. The
helmet can be adjusted stepwise every 2 mm to fit the scalp within the range of
53 –63 cm, and is equipped with a two-step adjustment of the helmet height.
CHINSTRAP CLIP
Pull away the clip (1), insert the strap piece (2) into the snap fastener of the strap,
and release clip.
Working life of the helmet is 60 months from the date of manufacture. DISPOSE
OF THE HELMET IN CASE OF SURGE, CRACKS OR DAMAGE. None of the
helmet elements can be removed or tampered with. Do not use paints, acids or
any self-adhesive labels unauthorized by the manufacturer.
3. STORAGE & TRANSPORTATION: The helmet must be stored and shipped in
a separate transport bag. Store far from sources of heat. Protect against
mechanical damage and sunlight (UV). Do not place the helmet directly next to
room and vehicle windows.
4. CLEANING: Clean with water and soap. Dry after cleaning. Replace sweat
cloth if used up.
5. ROUTINE TESTS AND INSPECTION BEFORE USE:
The inspection should be done each time before commencement of work. The
inspection is aimed at checking:
olack of visible defects in the shell of a helmet
ocorrectness of operation of head girth regulation
ocorrectness of operation of under-chin fastening strap
oservice life
Damaged (mechanical damage of the shell or incorrect operation of head girth
regulation or under-chin fastening strap) or dirty helmet cannot be used for live
working. Dry thoroughly the wet helmet before use. Pay attention to the service
life of the helmet, which is 60 months from the date of production. After this period
the helmet should be taken out of service and utilized.
The helmet is executed according to EN 397:2012 and EN 50365:2002 standards.
