The PIP 9150-52850 Arc Hood with Lens, Bracket, and Hard Hat is a complete face and head protection kit designed to shield the wearer from arc flash hazards while allowing clear vision. The hood integrates a UV and IR-absorbing arc shield lens with a green-tinted window and a permanent anti-fog inner coating to help maintain visibility in demanding environments. The lens is positioned approximately 3 inches from the face to accommodate respiratory protection and reduce lens fogging, supporting safer use with powered air-purifying respirators or other respirators that may contact the face shield area. The assembly meets ANSI Z87.1 standards for eye and face protection and is supplied with a dialectic (non-conductive) safety helmet and a hard hat adapter, enabling straightforward integration with compatible headgear.
Key features include a replaceable arc shield capable of providing protection up to 40 cal/cm², labeled as ATPV 4 in the product data. This level of protection is suitable for certain electrical arc exposures and aligns with industry practices for layered PPE ensembles. The navy color and integrated components are designed for use in settings where arc-rated head and face protection is required, and the package is offered as a single unit to simplify procurement and sizing decisions.
Intended applications include electrical maintenance and other utility work where arc-rated face and head protection is necessary. Practically, the hood is designed to accommodate additional protective equipment worn simultaneously, such as respirators, due to its extended lens distance from the face. The package quantity is listed as one unit per package, with the case quantity also indicated as one, indicating a complete, self-contained solution suitable for individual use or provisioning on a per-employee basis.
