Safety glasses UVEX Pheos NXT 9128265 with UV protection — blue/anthracite, certified EN 166:2001 EN 170:2002

The UVEX Pheos NXT 9128265 safety glasses combine a lightweight frame and integrated UV protection to safeguard the eyes in laboratory, industrial and workshop environments. This model features a blue/anthracite colour scheme and is certified to EN 166:2001 for mechanical protection and EN 170:2002 for ultraviolet filtering, providing both impact resistance and attenuation of harmful UV radiation.

Advantages

These safety glasses offer a balanced combination of mechanical protection and UV attenuation. The design is lightweight and intended for extended wear, while the lens material provides stable UV filtering compliant with the stated standards. The enclosed lens shape provides extended coverage for the eye area and the frame construction supports secure fit and compatibility with other personal protective equipment.

Suitable for

• Laboratory work where UV sources or UV-sensitive procedures are present
• Industrial environments with risk of flying particles and incidental UV exposure
• Workshops and maintenance tasks requiring splash and impact protection
• Quality control and inspection tasks that require clear vision with UV attenuation

When it may not be suitable

These glasses are intended for general impact protection and UV filtering according to the listed standards; they are not designed for high-energy welding or grinding tasks that require specialised filters and full-face shields. They also do not replace prescription eyewear unless fitted with corrective inserts or used over prescription glasses designed to be worn with safety goggles.

Key specifications

• Lens/frame colour: blue/anthracite
• Standards: mechanical impact protection and ultraviolet filtering in accordance with EN 166:2001 and EN 170:2002
• Enclosed lens design for extended eye coverage
• Lightweight frame for prolonged wear comfort
• Intended use: protection against flying particles, splashes and UV radiation

How to use

Place the glasses on the face ensuring the frame rests comfortably on the nose and temples and that the lenses cover the eye area without gaps. Adjust the arms for a secure fit to minimise movement during tasks. Clean lenses regularly with a soft cloth and a suitable lens cleaner to maintain clear vision and UV filtering performance. Inspect the glasses before each use for scratches, cracks or damage and replace them if their protective properties are compromised.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the level of UV protection and mechanical impact resistance required for your specific tasks
• Check compatibility with other personal protective equipment such as helmets or respirators
• Consider fit over prescription glasses if corrective lenses are needed
• Assess whether a specialised filter or face shield is needed for high-intensity light or welding work

Usage recommendations

Use these safety glasses whenever tasks involve potential eye exposure to flying particles, splashes or ultraviolet sources that fall within the filtering range of the eyewear standards. Replace the glasses if lenses become scratched or damaged, and store them in a protective case when not in use to prolong service life.
