Helmet
The lightweight deminers helmet shell is
originally designed as
a "bump" helmet to protect the wearer when working in confines
of aircraft and other hazardous areas, it has no ballistic protection
properties. It serves as a lightweight yet
durable mount for the visor.
Visor
The visor is manufactured from 6mm polycarbonate
giving a V50 level of 290 m/s this type of visor
is also fitted to the helmets of the British Royal Engineers
when they are conducting EOD/Demining operations.
To meet IMAS requirements the visor extends
to cover the throat and face of the wearer
and also extends to the top of the helmet
(this is why the helmet does not require
ballistic properties).
Adhesive anti-scratch
film patches can be supplied to protect the visor
from scratches and scrapes.
The whole system is modular which means
components can be replaced instead of replacing
the whole product, this not only increases
life cycle of the product it also make the DMHV 1 a sound economical choice..
