It was the clear target to develop a new, all-embracingly sure protection for the head system for the fire departments and help organizations. The results are impressive. The Head Protection system, called HPS briefly, fulfills not only all requirements on a safe helmet but offers additional protection and comfort. In this series the strategic partners Schuberth helmets and Dräger Safety offer protection for the head of the quality class just twice: with the models Dräger HPS 6100 and the Dräger HPS 4100 (see helmet no.:240). The helmet is built by the company Schuberth.

According to the manufacturer, the helmet can be 15 years used, if no negative influences have affected the helmet (high thermal loads on the helmet suitability addition, strong blows to the helmet or crashes, ...). Then it must be replaced. As an accessory to get including a gold visor, a lamp holder or various reflective strips. As neck protection here is a "Holland cloth" appropriate.
