Industrial safety helmets
This European Standard specifies physical and performance requirements, methods of test and marking requirements for industrial safety helmets. The mandatory requirements apply to helmets for general use in industry. Additional optional performance requirements are included to apply only where specifically claimed by the helmet manufacturer. Industrial safety helmets are intended primarily to provide protection to the wearer against falling objects and consequential brain injury and skull fracture.
Industrieschutzhelme
Diese Europäische Norm legt physikalische Anforderungen und Leistungsanforderungen, Prüfverfahren sowie Anforderungen an die Kennzeichnung für Industrieschutzhelme fest. Die verbindlichen Anforderungen gelten für Helme zur allgemeinen Anwendung in der Industrie. Zusätzliche optionale Leistungsanforderungen sind für den Fall enthalten, dass diese ausdrücklich vom Hersteller in Anspruch genommen werden. Industrie-schutzhelme sind in erster Linie dazu bestimmt, dem Träger Schutz vor fallenden Gegenständen und deren Konsequenzen wie Gehirnverletzung und Schädelbruch zu bieten.
Casques de protection pour l'industrie
La présente Norme européenne précise les exigences physiques et de performance, les méthodes d’essai et
les exigences de marquage pour les casques de protection pour l’industrie. Les exigences obligatoires
s'appliquent aux casques d'utilisation générale dans l'industrie. D'autres exigences de performance
supplémentaires facultatives ne sont applicables que lorsqu'elles sont spécifiquement revendiquées par le
fabricant de casque. Les casques de protection pour l'industrie sont initialement destinés à protéger le porteur
contre les chutes d'objet et les blessures à la tête et traumatismes crâniens consécutifs.
Industrijske zaščitne čelade
Ta evropski standard določa fizikalne zahteve in zahteve glede zmogljivosti, preskusne metode ter zahteve glede označevanja za industrijske zaščitne čelade. Obvezne zahteve se uporabljajo za čelade za splošno uporabo v industriji. Dodatne izbirne zahteve glede zmogljivosti se uporabljajo le v primerih, ko jih proizvajalec čelad izrecno navede. Industrijske zaščitne čelade so narejene predvsem za zaščito uporabnika pred padajočimi predmeti ter posledičnimi poškodbami možganov in lobanje.

The SIST EN 397:2012 standard provides a comprehensive framework governing the specifications for industrial safety helmets, which are crucial for ensuring worker safety in various industrial environments. Its scope clearly delineates not only the physical and performance requirements for these helmets but also emphasizes the methods of testing and marking standards that manufacturers must adhere to. A significant strength of this standard lies in its focus on the mandatory requirements for helmets intended for general use in industry, thus addressing the fundamental need for protection against risks associated with falling objects, thereby mitigating potential brain injuries and skull fractures. The standard underscores the importance of safety in potentially hazardous work environments, making it highly relevant for industries where such risks are prevalent. Moreover, the inclusion of optional performance requirements allows for a customizable approach to safety equipment, enabling manufacturers to claim specific enhanced performance characteristics if their helmets meet these additional criteria. This flexibility can stimulate innovation within the industry, as manufacturers are encouraged to enhance their products' safety features while remaining compliant with essential safety standards. The marking requirements outlined in the standard further ensure that users can easily identify compliant helmets, therefore promoting greater awareness and adherence to safety protocols among workers. By mandating these marking requirements, the SIST EN 397:2012 enhances accountability and traceability in the manufacturing process of industrial safety helmets. Overall, the SIST EN 397:2012 standard stands as an indispensable reference for manufacturers, safety professionals, and regulatory bodies involved in the production and use of industrial safety helmets, ensuring that safety remains a priority in the workplace.
