Even before the arc flash, the TransVision Shield reacts. It auto-darkens instantly to protect the eyes from temporary blindness and permanent eye damage. Arc flash is one of the top safety hazards that a lineman or electrical worker faces, often causing significant eye damage and the loss of situational awareness on the job. Most personal protective equipment is designed to protect workers from debris and heat but not an arc flash. In combination with the MSA V-Gard Protective Cap, the TransVision Shield offers maximum protection. It is one of the lightest weight eye, face and head PPE for electrical workers. Lightweight compound, high-arc protector with large viewing area, bright see-through state, ON/OFF operation and low battery warning LED.
