The Scan Directly Ventilated Safety Goggles are lightweight, durable protective goggles designed to provide reliable eye protection against medium-energy impacts during suitable DIY, construction, workshop and industrial tasks.

Featuring a tough UV-resistant polycarbonate lens, these safety goggles are designed to withstand medium-energy high-speed impacts up to 120m/s (approximately 270mph), providing practical protection against flying particles and debris.

The goggles incorporate large direct ventilation openings through the frame, allowing air to circulate around the eye area for improved wearing comfort.

Their compact, lightweight construction makes them convenient for regular use, while the generous design allows them to be worn over many prescription spectacles.

An elasticated headstrap provides an adjustable, secure fit, while the soft vinyl flanges around the goggles help them follow the contours of the face for additional comfort.

Specified as conforming to EN166 1B, the Scan Directly Ventilated Goggles combine medium-energy impact resistance with practical ventilation and an over-spectacles design.

Whether you're carrying out general workshop maintenance, using suitable hand tools or undertaking home improvement projects, these Scan Protective Safety Goggles provide a comfortable and practical eye protection solution.

Medium-Energy Impact Protection

The Scan Directly Ventilated Safety Goggles are designed to protect against medium-energy impacts from high-speed particles.

Their stated EN166 B impact rating corresponds to protection against specified high-speed particle impacts at 120 metres per second, equivalent to approximately 270mph.

This makes them suitable for appropriately assessed tasks where flying particles and debris may present an eye injury risk.

Potential applications include:

• General construction work

• Workshop maintenance

• Suitable power tool operations

• DIY projects

• General engineering tasks

• Handling materials that may produce flying particles

Important: The 120m/s rating refers to performance under specified test conditions. It does not mean the goggles protect against every impact hazard.

For higher-energy hazards or tasks requiring additional face protection, select PPE with the appropriate certification.

Tough Polycarbonate Lens

The goggles feature a durable polycarbonate lens.

Polycarbonate is commonly used in protective eyewear because it offers good impact resistance while remaining relatively lightweight.

The lens helps protect the eyes from flying particles encountered during suitable workplace and DIY activities.

Its tough construction makes these goggles a practical alternative to ordinary eyewear, which is not designed to provide certified impact protection.

UV-Resistant Lens

The Scan Safety Goggles incorporate a UV-resistant polycarbonate lens.

This provides a useful material property for protective eyewear used in environments where ultraviolet exposure may be a consideration.

However, the supplied information does not specify a UV filter scale number or percentage of ultraviolet transmission.

Important: Do not assume these goggles provide a particular certified UV filtration level or are suitable for welding, laser work or direct viewing of intense light sources.

Specialist tasks require eyewear with the appropriate filter markings.

Large Direct Ventilation Openings

A key feature of the Scan Directly Ventilated Goggles is their large ventilation openings through the frame.

These allow air to circulate around the eye area, helping improve comfort during use.

Direct ventilation may also help reduce moisture build-up under some working conditions.

However, ventilation performance varies depending on temperature, humidity and activity.

Important: Direct ventilation openings can allow dust, liquids, vapours and fine airborne contaminants to enter the goggles.

These goggles should not be selected for chemical splashes, fine dust hazards or other exposures requiring sealed or indirectly ventilated eye protection unless the manufacturer's markings specifically confirm suitability.

Lightweight & Compact Construction

The goggles feature a compact, lightweight design intended to provide practical eye protection without unnecessary bulk.

This makes them convenient for everyday DIY and workplace use.

Their lightweight construction may be particularly beneficial for users who need protective eyewear during extended tasks.

The flexible headstrap and soft facial contact areas help support a comfortable fit.

Designed to Fit Over Spectacles

The Scan Protective Goggles can be worn over many prescription spectacles.

This is particularly useful for users who require vision correction while carrying out tasks involving flying particles.

The over-spectacles design allows suitable prescription glasses to remain in place beneath the protective goggles.

However, compatibility depends on the size and shape of the spectacles.

Always check that both pairs of eyewear fit correctly and that the goggles maintain suitable coverage around the eyes.

Elasticated Headstrap for a Secure Fit

The goggles feature an elasticated headstrap designed to hold them securely in position.

The strap helps maintain the goggles' placement during normal movement.

A secure fit is important because protective eyewear must remain correctly positioned to provide effective protection.

Adjust the strap according to the manufacturer's instructions so the goggles sit comfortably without excessive pressure.

Soft Vinyl Flanges for Comfort

The Scan Directly Ventilated Safety Goggles incorporate soft vinyl flanges around the frame.

These are designed to follow the contours of the face and provide a comfortable contact surface.

The flexible material helps the goggles conform to different facial shapes.

This contributes to a more comfortable fit during suitable workplace activities.

Important: Although the flanges follow facial contours, the goggles are directly ventilated and should not be regarded as providing an airtight or liquid-tight seal.

Ideal for DIY, Workshop & Construction Tasks

The Scan Directly Ventilated Goggles are suitable for a variety of applications where medium-energy impact protection is required and direct ventilation is appropriate.

Typical uses include:

• Home improvement projects

• General construction activities

• Workshop maintenance

• Engineering tasks

• Suitable woodworking operations

• Mechanical repairs

• General material handling

• DIY tool use

• Garage maintenance

• Routine industrial work

The goggles should always be selected according to the hazards of the task.

For operations involving hazardous liquids, airborne chemicals, welding or high concentrations of fine dust, specialist protective eyewear may be required.

EN166 1B Eye Protection Classification

The Scan Directly Ventilated Safety Goggles are specified as conforming to EN166 1B.

The supplied marking indicates:

Optical Class 1

Optical Class 1 is intended for protective eyewear suitable for continuous use under the relevant standard's optical requirements.

This classification relates to optical performance rather than impact resistance.

Medium-Energy Impact Rating B

The B rating identifies protection against specified medium-energy high-speed particle impacts at 120m/s.

This provides a defined level of impact protection under the applicable test conditions.

Important: EN166 has been succeeded by the EN ISO 16321 series of eye and face protection standards. Stated conformity to EN166 does not automatically establish certification to the newer standards.

Check the goggles' current markings and declaration of conformity where current workplace PPE compliance is required.

How to Wear Scan Safety Goggles

For effective eye protection:

1. Inspect the goggles before use.

2. Check the lens for cracks, deep scratches or other damage.

3. Ensure the frame and ventilation openings are intact.

4. Position the goggles over the eyes or suitable prescription spectacles.

5. Adjust the elasticated headstrap for a secure, comfortable fit.

6. Check that the goggles provide appropriate coverage and do not obstruct vision.

7. Keep the goggles correctly positioned throughout the task.

Replace the goggles if they are damaged or have sustained a significant impact.

Cleaning & Maintenance

To help maintain the condition of the Scan Safety Goggles:

• Remove loose dust before wiping the lens.

• Clean using methods recommended by the manufacturer.

• Avoid abrasive cloths that may scratch the polycarbonate.

• Inspect the vinyl flanges for damage.

• Check the elasticated headstrap for wear.

• Store the goggles in a clean, dry location.

• Keep them away from chemicals or heat that could damage the materials.

• Replace damaged or heavily scratched goggles.

Important: A scratched or damaged lens may reduce visibility and protective performance.
