Ideal Applications
Consider PB55 for assessed construction, maintenance or industrial duties requiring the listed helmet protection and wearer identification. Choose the model and accessories against the task rather than relying on colour or the badge holder alone. Vents and the stated EN 397 rating do not establish electrical insulation.
Use and Care
Adjust the harness and chin strap using the supplied instructions. Inspect the shell, suspension, straps and holder before use, and replace damaged equipment after an impact or when required by the manufacturer. Do not drill the shell or modify the holder. Follow the supplied cleaning, storage and service-life limits, including any earlier replacement needed because of wear or exposure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the badge holder part of the helmet?
Yes. The polycarbonate holder is welded to the ABS shell and has a slide opening for the card.
Does it include a chin strap?
Yes. The manufacturer datasheet identifies an included four-point chin strap. Adjust it according to the supplied instructions.
Which accessories are listed as compatible?
Portwest lists PW47 and PS47 ear defenders and the PS58 visor holder. Check the instructions for the complete assembly before fitting accessories.
Is the helmet’s whole shell flame resistant because the badge holder is?
The manufacturer identifies flame-resistant polycarbonate for the badge holder. Do not extend that material description to the whole helmet; use its stated markings and instructions for protection selection.
