Arc flash resistance - Visors & frames
The risks from arc flash include ultraviolet and infrared radiation, intense light, convective heat and flying debris.
Temperatures can reach 19,400 °C at the arc terminals. Appropriate PPE is crucial even though there is no common global
standard against arc flash hazards. MSA offers appropriate, EN regulated, head and face protection, which should be
selected according to each individual risk assessment.
ArcflashvisorsEN166(Seepages24-25)
EN 166 marking "8" indicates visors and frames which protect against an open circuit electric arc of 12 kA
max, 380-400 V, 50 Hz nominal for 1 sec max. The requirements are: metal free, defined face coverage, visor
thickness minimum 1,4 mm with a scale number of 2-1,2 or 2C-1,2.

GS-ET-29 “Supplementary requirements for the testing and certification of face shields for electrical works“
first published in 2010 by german DGUV. Whilst an equivalent EN standard is in preparation, some users
require visors certified for GS-ET-29. This is “Arc-in-the-Box” testing with parameters of 400 V AC; 50 or 60 Hz
for 500ms and has 2 classes:
Class 1: 4 kA. 135kJ/m³
Class 2: 7 kA, 423kJ/m³
The main different to EN166 “8” is measurement of the temperature behind the visor at eye, mouth and chin
level of the test head - maximum safe temperatures are given, to ensure that users will not be injured.

V-Gard® – FaceProtection
V-Gard accessory system is an integrated solution to protect your face, eyes, neck and chin. Frames, visors and chin protectors have been designed Chemical application quick reference guide
and certified as a system with MSA helmets and brow guard to ensure product compatibility, a crucial component of compliance and safety. With
its trully global platform, MSA offers ideal protection around the globe. V-Gard Polycarbonate and Propionate visors are resistant to several chemicals. To proof individual performance we made intensive tests. The results
shown in the table below were obtained under lab conditions (23 ± 2˚C and 25 ± 5% relative humidity) in the MSA test labs.
For testing purposes, V-Gard visors were secured to V-Gard frames in the “as worn” position.
Because each working environment is unique it is recommended you test your selected visor to see actual performance based on external factors
and individual chemicals blend and concentrations. The results shown in this Quick Reference Guide are intended as a guide only to help in the
V-Gard – Frames selection of the proper V-Gard face protection products. While the table shows the performance against certain chemicals, it is not intended to
be all-inclusive and such testing is not required by safety standards.
Use only V-Gard frames or V-Gard Headgear with V-Gard visors. Other product combinations are not certified and may not function as intended.
