Roobuck, a Sydney-based industrial supplier, has released an AS/NZS 4602.1 compliant LED safety vest.

The company has been importing LED safety vests for two years; however, none of the current LED safety vests comply with Australian Hi-Viz standard because of the structures. It solved the standard compliant problem by employing specially designed flexible electrical cable, PCB mounting LEDs and a waterproof battery box to make it robust in IP67 protection. It is also designed in intrinsic safety and will be certified in IECEx for underground coal mine and petrochemical applications.

Glass N Hi-Viz garments are intended to provide the wearer with high visibility at night when viewed under retroreflected light, such as by drivers of vehicles. Such a warning signal completely relies on incoming light. This vest generates an active signal using 14 LEDs so the wearer can be protected in a completely dark environment. It is powered by two AA batteries, providing 200 h operation for 100-300 m range.
