Working in hazardous environments is tough enough – your gear shouldn’t add to the strain. The DEHNcare APHO is designed with comfort in mind, using high-quality, flame-resistant materials to keep workers safe and comfortable.
Key features of the protective hood include:
- 3-zone protective system:
- Zone 1: Shields the front of the face and head from direct heat and energy.
- Zone 2: Defends against indirect or reflected energy, including side and rear exposure.
- Zone 3: Protects against flying particles and falling debris.
- Enhanced ventilation: Unlike closed systems, the APHO features an open design that improves air circulation and reduces humidity, keeping workers cool and comfortable during extended wear.
- Pivoted visor: The integrated visor provides clear visibility while allowing workers to temporarily lift it for increased airflow. For safety, the visor cannot lock in the open position, ensuring full protection when needed.
- Breathable leather and neoprene: Skin-friendly materials help regulate temperature and reduce sweat buildup, ensuring a pleasant climate under the hood.
- Adjustable fit: Hook-and-loop fasteners allow for quick and easy adjustments, providing a secure fit for every wearer.
- Back-of-head protection: The hood extends coverage to the back of the head, blocking reflected energy and adding an extra layer of safety.
