Safety Helmets Acceleration Impact & Penetration Tester
The Safety Helmets Acceleration Impact & Penetration Tester is a dual-mode testing instrument designed to evaluate helmet performance under both blunt force and sharp object impact conditions. It provides high-precision measurement of forces, accelerations, and micro-deformations, ensuring compliance with international and national helmet safety standards. The system is suitable for production quality control, R&D, and certification testing of various helmet types.
Application
This tester is suitable for lateral and vertical impact evaluation of helmets, including:
(1) Industrial safety helmets used in construction and manufacturing
(2) Cycling helmets for road, mountain, and urban use
(3) Motorcycle and E-bike helmets for rider safety certification
(4) Sports helmets for skating, skiing, and climbing
(5) R&D of vented, full-brim, and custom helmet designs
Standards
The tester complies with the following standards:
(1) GB/T 2812 – Safety Helmets (China National Standard)
(2) ISO 6220-1 – Industrial Safety Helmets: Impact Absorption
(3) CE Certification (Conformité Européenne)
(4) ISO 17025 – General requirements for testing and calibration laboratories
Features
Dual-Testing Capability: Impact and penetration modes for comprehensive helmet evaluation.
High-Speed Data Acquisition: 20,000N force sensor captures impact spikes at 5,000Hz; 0.1mm deformation resolution.
Industrial-Grade Durability: 500kg reinforced concrete base eliminates vibration; stainless steel penetrator resists corrosion.
User-Centric Operation: 7” touchscreen HMI with preloaded GB/T 2812 test sequences and real-time acceleration graphs.
Quick-Swap Helmet Clamp: Rapid replacement of helmets for high-throughput testing.
Safety Systems: Dual interlocks and overload protection prevent accidental activation and sensor damage.
Dynamic Force Feedback: Triaxial accelerometers sample at 10,000Hz for precise mapping of impact forces.
Self-Calibrating System: Auto-tare and linearity checks before each test.
Rust-Resistant Construction: 304 stainless steel with epoxy coating ensures long-term durability.

Test Procedures
Secure the helmet in the universal clamp and select the appropriate size configuration.
Choose test mode (impact or penetration) via the touchscreen HMI.
Adjust drop height and test parameters as required.
Initiate the motorized lifting system to position the hammer or penetrator.
Activate the test sequence and monitor real-time force and acceleration graphs.
Export test results in PDF or CSV format for certification or R&D analysis.
Repeat tests for additional helmets as needed.
Maintenance Information
Clean helmet clamps, hammer assembly, and penetration tips regularly to remove dust or debris.
Inspect accelerometers, load cells, and moving components periodically; replace worn parts.
Verify calibration of force sensors and accelerometers every six months using NIST-traceable instruments.
Store the instrument in a dry, temperature-controlled environment to prevent corrosion.
Follow standard electrical safety procedures during operation and maintenance.
