heat source, see figure above. It is recommended to only use the face shield when the face shield can

reduce the heat exposure to the wearer's eyes to less than 100W/m2.

WARNING!

When fitted with another item of personal protective equipment or with an accessory, (other than as

supplied by the helmet manufacturer for use with this helmet) a helmet marked as complying with

EN 443 might no longer satisfy all clauses of the standard. Refer to information supplied by the helmet

5 Maintenance and Cleaning

The length of the useable life of this helmet will be affected by the type(s) of material used in its

construction and the environments in which the helmet is used and stored. Recommendations on this

topic should be sought from the manufacturer.

WARNING!

Do not apply paint, stickers, cleaning products with a hydrocarbon base or solvents to the helmet or

visors to prevent damaging the materials of your helmet.

To maximize helmet lifetime:

• Store the helmet in a proper storage bag and/or in a closed cabinet to avoid extended exposure

to cold, humidity, exhaust fumes, etc.

• Clean the helmet (shell and internal components) after use before storing.

Checks After Each Use

After each use, check every part of the helmet and especially all the fixing points:

• Correct anchor points used

• No evident wear

• No fractures or cracks

Check that the helmet fit is always correct.

To adjust mask tightness on helmet:

(1) Use a pair of pliers to remove the pin.

(2) Adjust the Kitfix to position (1) (2) or (3) (according to desired

mask tightness).

(3) Use the pin to lock the Kitfix in place (push it in completely).

(4) Test mask seal after attaching the mask if necessary.

Do not drop the helmet.

Prevent the helmet from impacts which could damage the shields (cracks/scratches).

The parts in contact with skin have to be inspected regularly for cracks or wear that could

cause discomfort. Changing those parts regularly will maintain user comfort level.

Maintenance and Cleaning

GB

Maintenance by a Trained Maintenance Specialist

Only trained people should perform the regular maintenance.

WARNING!

Replace any damaged parts only with original MSA parts, as only these original parts are authorized

and ensure the performance of the helmet.

Helmet absorbs 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.

Periodically, perform a complete check of the helmet with detailed inspection of each critical compo-

nent. MSA provides upon request a Service and Maintenance manual which details conformity criteria

for all safety components of the helmet and parts replacement procedures.

MSA recommends that this complete control is performed at least every two (2) years, more regularly

in case of intensive use (every year for instance), or each time the helmet has been exposed to very

severe conditions (mechanical impact, very high temperature, direct flame contact, contact with

pouring metal or chemicals). In cases where frequency of use is very low and none of the mentioned

exposures and damages are recorded, an inspection should be performed at least every 4 years. Local

regulations may apply.

WARNING!

In case of visible damage identified during the daily check (before or after use), such as impacts, signif-

icant scratches, coating removal on the shell or visors, melted parts, broken parts, torn straps or

paddings, missing components, non-operational moving parts (such as visors or ratchet), etc., the

helmet should be taken to the trained maintenance technician or an MSA approved maintenance

center for complete control processing.

WARNING!

Components that are particularly critical to the safety of the product, such as suspension, shell and

impact liner, are marked with .

Treat such parts with special attention and care during inspection and assembly.

5.1 Cleaning and Disinfection

Plastic Components

• Use soapy water and a soft cloth. (Do not use detergent, solvent based products or abrasive

2 Description

Le casque assure une protection de la tête et du visage contre les chocs, les objets tranchants, les

projections de produits solides, liquides, corrosifs, chimiques (acide sulfurique, hydroxyde de sodium,

p-xylène, butan-1-ol, n-heptane…), les métaux en fusion, la chaleur rayonnante, les flammes, le

courant électrique.

Dans les situations où les conditions dépassent celles prévues au cahier des charges mentionné ci

dessus, la protection de l’utilisateur ne sera plus assurée.

Écran facial

L'écran facial transparent ou doré protège contre les divers risques susceptibles de survenir au cours

des interventions de lutte contre l'incendie, des services d'ambulance et d'urgence, à l'exception des

risques d'ordre respiratoire et liés à l'émission de fumée et de gaz/vapeur. L'écran facial résiste à la

projection des produits chimiques identiques à ceux du casque cités ci-dessus.

Ajustement du casque

FR

La protection contre la chaleur rayonnante assurée par les écrans faciaux varie avec la température

de la source de chaleur, comme le montre la figure ci-dessus. Il est recommandé d'utiliser uniquement

l'écran facial s'il peut réduire l'exposition à la chaleur des yeux de l'utilisateur à moins de 100 W/m2.

AVERTISSEMENT!

S'il est fixé avec un autre élément de l'équipement de protection individuelle ou avec un accessoire

(différent de celui fourni par le fabricant du casque pour l'utilisation avec ce casque particulier), il est

possible qu'un casque marqué comme étant conforme à la norme EN 443 ne réponde plus à toutes

les clauses de la norme. Reportez-vous aux informations fournies par le fabricant du casque.
