Field of application
This helmet is designed for work at height,

The chinstrap has a strength of 50 daN

help keep the helmet on the head in case
of a fall.
The ALVEO VENT helmet meets only the
impact and penetration requirements of the
EN 397 standard.
WARNING, this ventilated helmet has no
electrical insulation rating.
Do not use this helmet in activities for which
it is not designed.
Activities at height present a risk of
serious head injury. Wearing a helmet can
significantly reduce this risk, but cannot
entirely eliminate it.
In a major impact, the helmet deforms to
absorb the maximum amount of energy
possible, sometimes to the point of
destroying the helmet.
