The PIP ARC Hood (SKU: PIP9150-52685) is a dedicated face and eye protection solution designed for electrical utilities, petrochemical, gas and oil, mining, welding, and emergency services environments where arc flash exposure is a consideration. This hood provides an arc rating of ATPV 33 cal/cm² and is classified as PPE Category 3 (HRC 3), aligning with higher-risk electrical work requirements. The design includes an UV and IR-absorbing ARC shield lens that offers protection up to 33 cal/cm² and is replaceable, helping maintain performance over time without needing a full replacement of the hood. A green-tinted window features a permanent anti-fog inner coating, and the lens is extended 3 inches from the face to accommodate respiratory protection and reduce lens fogging during demanding tasks. The hood is built to meet ANSI Z87.1 standards for splash and impact protection and is supplied with a dielectric safety helmet and hard hat adapter to support safe head protection in energized work zones.
In practice, this hood supports safer clearance for respirators and other PPE while maintaining visibility in challenging environments. The combination of a long-extended lens and an anti-fog treatment helps reduce fogging during prolonged use, which can improve situational awareness on the job. The included dielectric helmet and adapter provide ready compatibility for electrical work where non-conductive head protection is essential. The product is specified as a hood-type protective assembly that is packaged as a single unit, with each package containing one hood.
For sizing and compatibility, the navy-colored PIP hood is part of the PIP series and carries the ATPV 33 cal/cm² rating with PPE 3 (HRC 3). The packaging indicates a single-unit per package and a case quantity of one, suitable for individual procurement or inventory stocking. When selecting this hood, verify fit with existing respiratory protection and headgear, and ensure that the replacement ARC shield lens is available to maintain continued protection without downtime.
