Made for environments that require respiratory protection plus a higher level of head protection, the new Hard Hat PAPR with T94iH-R comes equipped with an MSA V-Gard hard hat with a “V” design that deflects objects and provides added protection during the event of impact.

A 44 in² integrated HDV grind shield provides a larger, clear viewing area for grinding and other tasks while the lift-to-talk head assembly improves communication, enabling the user to have access to the face without removing the head assembly. In addition, an exclusive Dualtec manifold system — with six adjustable air vents and dual speeds — helps keep operators cool and comfortable.

Various features of the Hard Hat PAPR with T94iH-R are meant to enhance comfort, visibility and compliance. The MSA Fas-Trac III ratchet-suspension headgear provides comfort by reducing pressure points and increasing stability. ClearLight 2.0 lens technology provides advanced high-definition optics for the most realistic view that’s clearer and brighter — before, during and after each weld — to reduce eye strain and improve weld quality. The low-profile breathing tube is positioned at the bottom of the neck instead of the top of the head, providing balance and comfort for all-day wear. There is also an optional heavy-duty head seal to provide an assigned protection factor (APF) of 1000.

More information about the Hard Hard PAPR with T94iH-R is available on the company’s website.
