The reality of police operations has changed drastically in recent years.
\nThe increasing threat of terror, amok, and other acts of violence against police officers is higher than ever before.
\nExtremist-motivated attacks and excessive violence with cutting and stabbing weapons against the emergency services and FIRST RESPONDER have already claimed several victims.
\nIn addition to knives and handguns, the ongoing war in the UKRAINE has increased the need for police officers and special forces to protect themselves efficiently against powerful rifles such as the Kalashnikov.
\nThose who take the rap for our safety deserve the best possible occupational safety.
\nThe new ZENTURIO VPAM6 offers its wearers real protection not only against, but also against rifles (VPAM6) \u00abstand-alone\u00bb – i.e. without an extra protective shield.<\/p>\n
The new ZENTURIO with genuine VPAM6 protection against rifles such as the AK47
\nThe new ZENTURIO with Stand Alone VPAM 6 protection can stop fire from a Kalashnikov AK47 assault rifle, 7.62 x 39 iron core ammunition (MSC), and at the same time achieving trauma values below 25 joules (test level VPAM 6, trauma values analogous to the European directive HVN 2009 with residual energy values below 25 joules)<\/p>\n
Previous Zenturio C1300 and C1300H helmets protected against small arms fire, but not against rifles! This could be retrofitted with a 500g forehead shield in the main attack area, the forehead.<\/p>\n
This technological milestone is now ready for series production and represents a technological breakthrough.
\nThe ZENTURIO VPAM6 unlocks up a new era of ballistic protective helmets with real protection against rifles at almost the same weight but with triple the protection due to the massively higher energy of the projectile (VPAM 3 = 689 joules\u2192 VPAM 6 = 2074 joules). Laboratory tests show that the projectile remains below the limit value of 25 joules at full speed on impact with the helmet dome, thus preventing life-threatening craniocerebral trauma to the helmet wearer.<\/p>\n
This makes the ULBRICHTS ZENTURIO VPAM 6 a stand-alone rifle helmet, which is the only helmet in its weight class on the market that effectively protects its wearer against rifles all around without additional shields. This means not only stopping these high-energy projectiles but also avoiding fatal trauma.<\/p>\n
ULBRICHTS Protection is constantly working on optimizing the protection and weight of its ballistic helmets. Like the OPTIO, the new ZENTURIO generation of ULBRICHTS helmets will no longer require screws on the helmet dome. This saves weight and increases the effective protective surface by 20 to 30 percent. Screws and the holes required for them are a known weak point of the helmet shell
\nThe more screws that can be avoided, the larger the effective protection surface.
\nIn addition, screws can become a secondary projectile when fired at and can therefore pose a lethal risk to the helmet wearer. Screws no longer belong on a ballistic protective helmet, at the latest after the introduction of rifle protection.<\/p>\n
Other features, such as improved modularity of practical features, characterize the new generation. The helmets not only offer the best protection in the world but are also visually appealing.
\nThe ZENTURIO VPAM6 therefore stands for: Real protection, dynamism, and functionality for those who protect us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
