For protection against hazardous gases (e.g., carbon monoxide).
 Contaminants are in excess of regulations or recommendations.

Contaminants or contaminant concentrations are unknown.
 Work area is poorly ventilated.

The temperature is outside the range of -10°C to +60°C (14°F to 140°F).
 A flammable or explosive atmosphere is present when used with systems including
electrical parts that are not intrinsically safe, PX5 ® , PX4 AIR ® , Vision-Link ™ , 16-922

or 09-913 PTT.
FACE AND EYES:
 The T-LINK
®
with Safety Lens meets EN 166:2002 (AS/NZS 1337.1:2010) face shield
requirements and is designed for grinding, painting, and other industrial applications.
 The T-LINK
®
is not designed or tested to provide protection against molten metals or
corrosive liquids.
 Note: Safety glasses may be required to be worn depending on the job hazard analysis.
The T-LINK
®
does not protect against the potential transfer of impact to glasses worn
underneath the hood. It does not provide complete eye and face protection against severe
impact and penetration and is not a substitute for good safety practices and engineering
controls.
HEAD:

The T-LINK ® , when equipped with the standard lightweight helmet, is designed to act as a
bump cap, with minimal head protection. It does not meet the EN 397:2012+A1:2012 (AS/
NZS 1801:1997) requirements in this configuration.
 The T-LINK
®
, when equipped with the optional hard hat, meets the EN 397:2012+A1:2012
(AS/NZS 1801:1997) requirements for physical head protection as a hard hat. The helmet
is design to provide limited head protection by reducing the force of falling objects striking
the top of the head. Ensure the helmet is adjusted to properly fit the user by adjusting the
head harness and sidepads or QUIET-LINK
™
if installed.
HEARING:
 When used with the T-LINK
®
, the QUIET-LINK
™
Ear Defender system provides an Noise
Reduction Rating (NRR) of 25. Refer to the QUIET-LINK
™
instruction manual to ensure
proper installation and fit .
 If QUIET-LINK
™
is not used, other hearing protection, such as earplugs, must be properly
fitted and worn where noise levels exceed the permissible exposure levels.
