Covering CAT 1 to CAT 4 Arc Flash Hazard Levels
In the power utility, industrial electrical, renewable energy, battery energy storage and related industries, Arc Flash remains one of the most dangerous occupational hazards.
An Arc Flash incident occurs within milliseconds but can instantly release temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees, intense light, pressure waves and molten metal, causing severe injuries to workers.
Among all exposed body parts, the head, face and neck are particularly vulnerable and require reliable, professional personal protective equipment.
During an Arc Flash event, extreme thermal radiation, intense light, pressure waves and molten metal splashes are usually directed toward the head and face first.
Even if workers are wearing Arc Flash protective clothing, inadequate head and face protection may still result in facial burns, eye injuries and neck burns.
For this reason, Arc Flash face shields and Arc Flash hoods are essential components of a complete Arc Flash PPE system.
Extremely high temperatures reaching tens of thousands of degrees
Powerful pressure waves
Intense visible light and ultraviolet radiation
Molten metal splashes
Risk of burns to the face, eyes and neck
To meet different Arc Flash hazard levels and working environments, C&G has developed the complete ArcPro® Arc Flash Head Protection Series, including Arc Flash Face Shields, Standard Arc Flash Hoods and Lift-Front Arc Flash Hoods, providing comprehensive head and face protection solutions.
Different working environments require different levels of Arc Flash protection.
The ArcPro® Head and Face Protection Series offers a complete product matrix, enabling users to select the most appropriate protection according to their hazard assessment.

For energized inspections, low-voltage electrical work, equipment maintenance and electrical servicing, a professional Arc Flash Face Shield effectively reduces the risk of thermal radiation and molten particle exposure to the face.
The face shield is compatible with safety helmets while providing excellent protection, visibility and wearing comfort, making it one of the most widely used head protection products in the electrical industry.

High-transmission gray visor provides improved light transmission and true color recognition.
Extended downward viewing angle improves operational convenience.
Double-sided anti-fog coating maintains clear vision in cold and humid environments.
Combines Arc Flash protection, impact resistance and excellent optical performance.
The high-transmission gray visor, together with the anti-fog coating, reduces visual fatigue and improves comfort during long working hours.
Compared with clear visors, the Arc Flash Face Shield provides not only reliable Arc Flash protection but also superior optical performance and ergonomic comfort for energized inspections and electrical maintenance.
For medium and high Arc Flash hazards, a face shield alone is no longer sufficient.
The ArcPro® Arc Flash Hood features an integrated design that protects the face, head, neck and shoulders simultaneously, creating a much larger thermal protection zone and providing more comprehensive protection.

With protection ranging from 8 cal/cm² to 65 cal/cm², the ArcPro® Arc Flash Hood Series covers CAT 2, CAT 3 and CAT 4 hazard levels and can be combined with ArcPro® Arc Flash garments to form a complete PPE system.
Flame resistance is built into the fiber itself rather than applied through chemical treatment, ensuring permanent protection that does not diminish after repeated laundering or long-term use.
Provides excellent light transmission, accurate color recognition and a wider field of view while reducing eye fatigue during extended use.
The ergonomic structure closely follows the contours of the head, improving fit, stability and comfort throughout long working shifts.
For applications requiring frequent communication, routine inspections, equipment checks and extended working periods, conventional enclosed hoods provide excellent protection but can be less convenient during continuous use.
The ArcPro® Lift-Front Arc Flash Hood features an innovative lift-up visor that greatly improves convenience while maintaining full Arc Flash protection.
12 cal/cm² CAT 2
32 cal/cm² CAT 3
45 cal/cm² CAT 4
55 cal/cm² CAT 4
The lift-up visor provides faster ventilation and reduces heat buildup during prolonged wear.
Workers can communicate without removing the hood, improving team collaboration.
The visor can be lifted quickly during inspections, documentation and instrument reading, improving work efficiency.
Ideal for continuous energized work requiring frequent interaction.
Permanent flame resistance built into the fiber that does not degrade after repeated washing or prolonged use.
Provides Arc Flash protection, impact resistance and outstanding optical performance.
Protection levels from 8 cal/cm² to 65 cal/cm² covering CAT 2 through CAT 4 hazards.
Products comply with ASTM F2178, while selected models also comply with DL/T 320 and other industry standards.
Developed using C&G proprietary materials, the ArcPro® series can be combined with ArcPro® Arc Flash clothing, Arc Flash gloves and Arc Flash gaiters to build a complete Arc Flash protection solution.
