The PIXA Z0 was designed to meet the needs of maintenance
and industrial professionals working in potentially explosive
environments . It has the following certifications : ATEX Zone 0
( II 1 G Ex ia IIC T4 ) , HAZLOC ( Class I Div 1 A , B , C , D T4 ) ,
and IECEx ( Gas : Ex ia IIC T4 Ga ) . Durable , waterproof ,
and resistant to certain chemicals , it is ideal for intensive
and demanding professional use .
If an explosion hazard is identified in an environment ,
the hazardous areas are classified as areas at risk , depending
on the prevalence and type of combustible , gas or dust . All of
the materials used in these zones must therefore meet current
regulations for this type of zone ( ATEX and / or HAZLOC ) .

Different Beam Types
Brightness : the shape of the beam directly affects lighting distance
Lighting distance depends directly on brightness , but mainly on the shape of the beam .
In fact , given the same brightness , lighting distance will vary depending on the shape
of the beam .
Petzl indicates the different lighting modes available for each headlamp . These modes
correspond to specific conditions of use : close - range work , moving around , seeing at
a distance .
Brightness ( lumens )
This measurement is taken between 30 and 120 seconds
after the headlamp is turned on . It indicates the maximum
light output when the lamp is first turned on using new
batteries ( included ) .
Burn time ( hours )
This is the length of time for which lighting remains optimal ,
from the moment the lamp is turned on until it drops to 10 %
of maximum light output . It then switches to reserve lighting .
Lighting distance ( meters )
This is the maximum distance between the lamp and
the location where only 0 . 25 lux of illumination remains .
The measurement is taken when the lamp is turned on ,
using new batteries . Lighting distance depends directly
on brightness , but mainly on the shape of the beam .
Reserve lighting
( Outside of the ANSI / PLATO FL1 protocol )
In addition to these measures , Petzl offers reserve lighting .
Reserve lighting provides a minimum light level to be able
to move around . However , the lighting may be insufficient
for certain activities ( such as precision work or inspection ) .
Lighting Performance : How Is It Measured ?
Lighting performance as def ined by the ANSI / PLATO FL1 protocol
Petzl has chosen to comply with the ANSI ( American National Standards Institute ) FL1 protocol to measure and demonstrate the lighting
performance of our headlamps . This voluntary move allows users to easily compare the lighting performance of different headlamp models
using standardized criteria .
Narrow beam
Narrow beam allows focused lighting on a target in order
to see objects or people at a distance .
Mixed beam
Mixed beam consists of a wide beam and a focused component ,
allowing both proximity lighting and longer - range vision
for moving around .
Wide beam
Wide beam designed for proximity lighting to see up close
or around your feet . The wide angle provides a very large
and comfortable field of view .
