VAMP Ltd.’s Vamp 221 is a dual-sensing and multi-zone arc protection system for low and medium voltage electrical power safety applications. The system’s ability to trip in just seven milliseconds means that electrical arcs are stopped well before their full explosive potential is reached, according to the company. Vamp 221 uses light and current sensing information to provide faster and more efficient protection than standalone over-current relays or busbar differential schemes, Vamp says. The master 221 module comes with 3-phase current measurement, 50BF breaker failure protection stages, four normally open trip contacts and two alarm contacts. Vamp says it can be programmed to sense electric arc conditions using either simultaneous light and current data, or light sensor information only.

The new SmartLens photochromic eyewear from AOSafety has an automatic lens changer that adjusts according to the outdoor light conditions, reducing the need to purchase multiple pairs of protective eyewear, says the product’s maker Aearo Technologies. The lens lightens or darkens as needed and within seconds, and is “UV reactive”, which means it responds to the amount of ultraviolet light it receives, the company adds. SmartLens also features durable frame with nylon brow and magnesium alloy temples, tough polycarbonate lens that absorbs 99.9 per cent of UV, abrasion resistant hard-coat for extended life, and meets ANSI Z87.1-2003 High Impact Standards and ANSI Z80.3’s traffic signal recognition requirements, the company says.

AOSafety’s QuickFit full face mask respirator series has been enhanced to include a Mesh Headgear ideal for hard hats, helmets and other head coverings, says QuickFit maker Aearo Technologies. The Standard Quickfit face mask included a plastic headgear that goes on with a twist and comes off with a pull of the silver handle. The Mesh Headgear has a flexible mesh that allows for a snug and comfortable fit with head protection gears, the company says. QuickFit products, which features AOSafety’s Twist and Seal design, come in four face piece sizes to fit a wide variety of users, says Aearo Technologies.
