HM50 & HMK150 FAQ

Q: How many size combinations are available?
A: Avon HM50 comes in three sizes (Small Medium & Large)
The Schubert helmet is available in three shell sizes (Small Medium & Large) with the option of eleven internal liner sizes.

Q: What is the HMK150?
A: Avon has teamed with Schuberth to provide flawless integration of their HM50 respirator and Exoskeleton, to the Schuberth P100N Helmet. Supplied with the HM50 is an HMK150 Conversion Pack which allows the user to configure the respirator for helmet attachment mode. In this configuration it is referred to as the HMK150.

Based on the widely deployed 50 Series respirator platform, the HM50 system brings the pedigree of a respirator proven for use in the harshest environments and is type-examination approved for CE marking with CBRN Protection. Through a simple exchange of the harness for the helmet connecting straps, the respirator converts to be compatible with a world leading Police helmet for use in non-CBRN environments which is approved to the most advanced German Police specification.
The full face respirator is connected to the helmet in seconds and as there is no need for the helmet to be removed, respiratory protection is seamless.

Q: Can HM50 be used in conjunction with any other helmet manufacturer?
A: The current design fits exclusively to the Schuberth P100N Riot helmet

Q: Can an Avon C50 respirator be re-configured into a HMK50?
A: No, this would invalidate the type-examination approval of the HM50 full face respirator. The configuration of an HM50 full face respirator requires a considerable amount of specialist work, which may only be completed by Avon Protection. As a result it is more cost effective to buy a new HM50 rather than convert a 50 series variant. All manufacturing and testing operations require the specialist tooling and test equipment held at Avon sites.

Q. Can customers purchase the helmet and respirator separately?
A: Yes the respirator and helmet could be purchased separately.
