PSS (PRO SHADE VAS-V MV SHIELD)

Our Pro Shade system is now also back in stock! The PSS offers the all-weather solution against sun glare, excess ambient light and fogging. The suns visor flips up and down with a flick of the hand and is fixed in position. The advantages of the PSS system: no reduction in thickness of the inner shell, no weakening of the outer shell and no need for an operating system containing metal parts. When the sun is low, only a subtle dip is needed to reduce ambient light. The PSS will not block the complete field of view, just the part that causes glare. No more need to change your dark smoke visor when the sun goes down.

 

WHY PSS? WHAT'S THE ADVANTAGE FOR ME?

An excellent example of Arai’s vision on protection and safety is the development of the PSS, the Pro Shade System. A clever drop-down sunvisor, combined with well known, wide vision Max Vision visor with optional Pinlock inlay lens. It is the all-weather solution against sun glare, fogging and misting. The sun visor flips up and down with a flick of the hand and is fixed in position. A much asked question is however, why Arai did not use a build in sun visor. There are three good reasons not to use a build in sun visor: * No reduction in thickness of the EPS inner shell is needed. When the visor is built in, the space for it is created by making the EPS liner thinner.

* No weakening of the outer shell. The air space needed for a build in visor and the lack of bonding between the outer shell and the inner EPS liner will weaken the outer shell. * No operating mechanism needed. The operating system will also need space that is not available for the EPS liner any more. Furthermore, it often contains metal parts within the EPS liner that could be dangerous in case of impacts. As Arai say, what we are seeking to protect is priceless. Our unique obsession with protection continues with the Pro Shade System. Available in a range of tinted and iridium options.
