SAFETY EYEWEAR
EN166
Personal eye protection
Eye-protection equipment is marked with a series of numbers and/or symbols
according to the field of use, the protection capabilities and performance
characteristics of the eye-protector.( Note : where the ocular and the frame
form a single unit, e.g. cover-spectacles, goggles, all markings are on the
frame. The marking relative to oculars precedes the marking relative to the
frame and the markings are separated by a hyphen.In this case the manufacturers
identification mark is not repeated in the marking.)
Example of Marking
Ocular marking: 3-1.2 [S] 1 F
Frame marking: [S] EN 66-F
