Klein Tools announced the introduction of the 60156 Intrinsically Safe LED Headlamp. The new headlamp can now be purchased.
We all know what a helmetlamp is. It’s a head-mounted lamp that provides handsfree lighting, so your limbs can work. This light can be used with Klein’s safety helmets and hard hats. But what exactly is an intrinsically safe light? Its a light that is safe to use where an explosion risk is high such as mines and petrochemical refineries where dangerous concentrations of flammable gases are found. This lights low voltage nature does not pose a threat of ignition in such environments.
This headlamp runs an LED chip capable of producing up to 216 lumens of brightness and can also be set to medium brightness, and a low brightness of 75 lumens. Hard hats can tilt the lamp bracket up to 70 degrees. In the highest brightness you can get up to 5 hours of runtime and up to 12 hours in low brightness. It is powered by three AAA batteries (included) and the battery compartment requires the use of the included 2.5mm hex key to replace batteries.
The headlamp is IP67 rated for being waterproof and dust proof and with a drop protection rating of 2.0 m tested.
