The types of material employed in manufacture and the surroundings in which
the helmet is used and stored, influence its service life. Reccommendations on
this topic: 7.4.
7.4 Recommendations on service life
HEROS-xtreme fire fighting helmets are very age resistant when used for
their intended purpose and maintained correctly. Their maximum service
life depends directly on their use such as exposure to weather, storage and
operational conditions, as well as thermal and mechanical stress etc. To ensure
as long a service life as possible, always observe the rules and instructions
published in this user information and replace defective or worn helmet parts
with original parts in the course of ongoing inspection. In addition to this, the
helmet must always be cleaned after use (see user information), protected
against exposure to light, exhaust gases etc., and kept in a dry and clean place.
For older helmets that have been in service longer, note that any evaluation of
the service life can only take the operations, requirements, stresses, standards
etc. into consideration that were relevant when the helmet was first released.
Also note that the helmet should only be exposed to stress covered by the
appropriate legislation and helmet inspection rules that applied when the
helmet was first released. HEROS-xtreme fire fighting helmets can be used
for a very long time assuming you observe all the instructions in the user
information and also assuming ongoing care and maintenance and replacement
of all defective parts. The production date of our helmets is shown in the date
pictogram on the interior of the helmet.
Attention: The visor features anti-fog coating on the inside. The visor and the
coating must be meticulously cared for at regular intervals with warm water, a soft
cloth and, if necessary, mild dishwashing liquid. Visors should never be cleaned
when dry or using aggressive or abrasive materials. Even with proper care, this
coating has a limited resistance with corresponding use. Detachment of the inner
display coating does not represent a defect; in this case it is recommended you
replace the visor.
