Pfanner Protos Helmet - COMING SOON!

[gustharts]

 

After years of pre production and millions of pounds spent, the Pfanner Protos Integra helmet is finally here!

 

We hope to have the Protos Arborist Intergal helmet in stock some time between the end of October and early November

One Helmet for any challenge

 

Due to the EN397 & EN12492 certification the "Protos Integral System" may be used for forestry, arboriculture or climbing activities within minutes. Chin strap, visor, neck protector, ear protection - everything is intergrated and modular at the same time.

 

The word "integral" is what makes the Protos Integral so unique! Pfanner suceeded in integrating all the crucial parts in the helmet shell. This way you cannot get caught on twigs, brushwood or other obstacles.

 

 

 

8X MORE SAFETY

 

* Greater field of view compared to all tested helmets on the market. Offers maximum sight.

 

* The neck protector guards the back of the head and from impacts when falling and minimizes the danger of basal skull fractures.

 

* The sporty colour combination has 35% more visable surface. The highly increased visability gives the wearer a great advantage in situations where they might be hard to spot (foliage, coniferous woodland, blinding sunlight etc. - no matter what season)

 

* Due to the special cushioning construction (3-point mounting and anti-shock pads) of the interior shell impacts are effectively absorbed and not transferred to the head and respectively the spine

 

* With the first-time certification with EN397 and EN12492 standards the protective helmet Protos not protects from vertical but also from horizontal impacts. This results in an innovative "all round protection"

 

* Due to the elaborate interior shell the helmet fits perfectly. In case of an impact the energy is diffused on a large area and absorded evenly.

 

* As the ear protection is always put on, it serves as additional shock protection.

 

* The safety ventilation slit offers high safety exactly where it is needed. Horizontal and vertical impacts are absorded by the additional shell before the energy affects the main helmet.

 

8X More Comfort

 

* Due to the integrated ear protection there are no prominent parts with which you could get caught on branches and such. The adjustable contact pressure of the ear protectors allows optimal customization

 

* 2 great advantages of the integrated facial protection: You can work without getting caught on twigs, thorns while having an incredible field of view.

 

* Correct fit on the head due to the prolonged, adjustable neck bowl. This way the helmet offers perfect fit even without the chin guard.

 

* The special construction guarantees active ventilation (air flow in from all sides and exhaust through the ventilation channels on top) The ventilation channels may be closed or opened with the push of a lever. This way you can adjust the helmet to warm, cold or wet conditions.

 

* So that the chin guard does not slip under the ear protector Pfanner attached a special rail to it. Wearing comfort and noise dampening are ensured.

 

* Extraordinary sweat transport due to large contact pads with Klima-AIR technology.

 

* Pfanners patented size adjustment makes the helmet easy to put on or off by activating or deactivating the neck part. Once you adjusted its size, you will not have to adjust it again

 

* All functions are operable with only 2 fingers. Also the ear protection which can be deactivated by pushing it in its integrated garage under the outer shell

Will it be able to accept audio for comms systems etc?

I use radio ear defenders as often working alone and they're a god-send. Combined with a little fm transmitter on the phone they also provide excellent comms option when needed (quadtrack assisted fells etc:001_cool:)

The ins and outs I'm not sure of yet but I quote

 

"At the moment, we're working hard to enhance the Protos Integral with radio equipment. The Protos ear protection fork offers a flexible interface for developing receptable for various radio communication sets"

I tried one of these at the APF and was so impressed. it is so comfortable and the ear defenders move from up in the helmet to over your ears really smoothly and the noise cancellation is excellent. More than just your ordinary lid..
