Scope of the device:
Equipment for testing the impact resistance of eye protectors according to AS 1609, ANSI Z87.1, Snell M 2025, and MIL-PRF-32432 , EN 167–168, ISO 12311, ISO 18526-3, and ECE 22/06 , BS 4110.
Typical test results
After 1 or 2 shots at the target pressure (necessary for mechanical stabilization), the variation between consecutive shots at the same pressure is:
- Less than 5% for 100% of the shots;
- Less than 2% for 90% of the shots;
Note:
These values may vary from HPG to HPG and depend on the environment in which the equipment is installed.
Optional Accessories
