Specifications

Safety Above All Else

 N/A Rigorous safety standards not only protect valued workers, they also maximize efficiency, and maintain companies' hard-earned reputations as suppliers and employers.

RPB® tested the Nova 3® using all conventional safety testing. Meets standards worldwide, including NIOSH, ANSI Z87.1 - 2010+, ANSI Z89.1 - 2012 Type 1 Class C. Then they parked a large sports utility vehicle on top of it. It's that uncompromising approach that characterizes RPB®'s design and the high standards and ethics they set in everything they do. Because jobs and lives depend on their products; RPB® make certain they won’t let anyone down.

Comfortable Kit - Clear Thinking

 N/A The RPB® Nova 3®'s design and engineering distributes the helmet's weight evenly across the head and shoulders for optimum comfort, practicality, and ease of worker movement, reducing fatigue. In addition, a ratchet-adjusted neck pad ensures your head is supported.

The ingenious, fully adjustable, internal "Clever Fit Padding" (patent pending) allows helmets to be individually customized. This avoids discomfort and irritation, giving workers a clear head even under the pressures of their work. The padding has a second, vital, purpose. It's positioned to help absorb sound within the helmet, protecting workers’ hearing. Padding is easily removed, and fully machine washable, making helmets hygienic and pleasant to wear even in the most extreme temperatures.

The Nova 3® takes RPB®'s goals of protecting workers’ safety, optimizing productivity, and minimizing downtime, to a whole new level.

Fit and Save System

 N/A The 03-725 Tear off Lens system is a unique "FIT AND SAVE™" system of pre-folded tabs. This means workers can quickly tear off just one, layered, lens at a time. Contractors have reported a time saving of over 45 minutes a day per blaster using the RPB® "FIT AND SAVE™" system, and a resulting increase in productivity.

Blast Jackets

 N/A The Nova 3® is also available with Blast Jackets. The RPB® Blast Jacket is designed to offer greater protection from dust and particulates and when you are using a cool tube the jacket directs the cool air around your torso, so you not only have a cool head, the system cools your entire upper body!

Jackets are available in 2 sizes - XL and XXL.

11. Streamlined air system - an even distribution of airflow brings air to the breathe zone and reduces lens fogging. The air channel stops head chill and directs the air where it’s needed! Vents in the top dome allow air to also pass around the head for extra comfort. This engineering is supported by a fail-proof air tube attachment that can only be assembled the correct way, limiting time for re-adjustments and removing the risk of malfunction.
