Description
Description
A compact, robust, and waterproof headlamp designed for close-range illumination and movement, featuring white or red/green/blue lighting to preserve night vision and maintain discretion. 450 lumens.
Emitting 450 lumens, the Petzl Aria 2 RGB is a compact headlamp specifically crafted for maintenance professionals, tradespeople, and stage technicians. Built for durability, it is resistant to falls and impacts. Additionally, it is both waterproof and dustproof, ensuring reliability across various work environments. Designed for ease of use, it features a single button to control all functions. The broad, uniform beam ensures comfortable illumination for close-range tasks, while the mixed beam facilitates movement. The red/green/blue lighting mode preserves night vision and enhances discretion when required. This versatile headlamp can be worn on the head, around the neck, or mounted on various helmet types using available accessory plates. The ARIA® 2 RGB is supplied with three standard batteries but is also compatible with the CORE rechargeable battery, thanks to its HYBRID CONCEPT design.

HOW IS LIGHTING PERFORMANCE MEASURED WITH THE ANSI/PLATO FL1 PROTOCOL?
|
WARNINGS
|
ANSI/PLATO FL1 |
|
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. |
|
|
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. |
|
|
Burn time (hours) This corresponds to the length of time during which lighting is optimal. It is measured 30 seconds after the lamp is turned on and for as long as the lamp takes to drop to 10 % of maximum light output. |
|
Reserve lighting (outside the scope of ANSI/PLATO FL1) In addition to these measures, Petzl guarantees reserve lighting. Reserve lighting provides enough light for walking. However, the light may not be sufficient for fast-paced activities (such as running, mountain biking, skiing...). |

WATERTIGHTNESS AND IP RATING
A Headlamp's Watertightness is Ensured by its IP Rating
This rating classifies the level of protection offered by equipment against ingress by solids (e.g. dust) and liquids (e.g. water, oil).
Two Standards Govern the IP Rating
The IEC 60529 standard involves all electronic products, including headlamps. It defines the levels of protection against solids and liquids and describes the tests to be done depending on the product's IP rating.
The IP rating consists of two digits:
- The first digit indicates protection against solids.
- The second digit indicates protection against liquids. More commonly called watertightness.
| Rating |
1st digit (tens) Protection against solids |
2nd digit (ones) Protection against water ingress with harmful effects |
| 0 |
No protection |
No protection |
| 1 |
Protection against solids greater than 50 mm in diameter |
Protection against vertically falling water drops |
| 2 |
Protection against solids greater than 12.5 mm in diameter |
Protection against water drops (15° from vertical) |
| 3 |
Protection against solids greater than 2.5 mm in diameter |
Rain |
| 4 |
Protection against solids greater than 1.0 mm in diameter |
Protection against spraying water |
| 5 |
Dust protection |
Protection against water jets |
| 6 |
Completely protected against dust |
Protection against powerful water jets |
| 7 |
- |
Protection against temporary immersion -1 meter for 30 minutes |
| 8 |
- |
Protection against prolonged immersion; duration and depth defined by the manufacturer |
Note: When a criterion has not been tested, the number is replaced by X (e.g., IPX6 indicates that the product has not been tested for solids).
ANSI/PLATO FL 1 standard defines an additional concept by giving test acceptance criteria for the IPX4, IPX7 and IPX8 ratings.
| IPX4 | The lamp functions just after the test and 30 minutes after the test. Water drops allowed in the lamp after the test, provided there is no short-circuit or electrical fault. |
| IPX7 | The lamp functions just after the test and 30 minutes after the test. No water allowed in the lamp after the test |
| IPX8 |
To define a headlamp IP rating, a manufacturer can rely solely on the IEC 60529 standard by defining its own test acceptance criteria, or use the acceptance criteria given in the ANSI/PLATO FL 1 standard.
What Watertightness Tests are Done on Petzl Headlamps?
To claim an IP rating on its headlamps, Petzl chose to do its testing internally. Petzl follows the test protocol defined in the IEC 60529 standard and the test acceptance criteria from the ANSI/PLATO FL1 standard.
Petzl has a test laboratory (oscillating tube, water tank and watertightness chamber) that allows the necessary tests to be done in order to determine the watertightness of a lamp.
What are the IP Ratings of Petzl Headlamps?
- All of our headlamps are at least IPX4 (weather resistant): a rating suitable for most headlamp use in rain, snow or a humid environment.
- The e+LITE® lamp is IPX7 (watertight to -1 meters for 30 minutes in fresh water).
- The DUO S lamp is IP67 (watertight to -1 meters for 30 minutes in fresh water and dust tight).
WHAT IS AN IK RATING?
The IK rating, as defined by the IEC 62262 standard, indicates the degree of protection against external mechanical impacts. In other words, the impact resistance of a product. The rating is composed of two numbers, each corresponding to a level of protection.

PETZL PROTOCOL FOR VALIDATING IK RATINGS

IP PROTECTION INDEX AND EMC
The IP protection index is an international standard. This index classifies the level of protection offered by equipment against intrusions by solids (e.g. dust) and liquids (e.g. water, oil).
How do you read the protection index?
Example: IP 67
The IP 67 notation therefore corresponds to a completely dustproof product that is protected against the effects of immersion in liquid. Note: When a criterion has not been tested, the number is replaced by X (e.g., IP X6 indicates that the product has not been tested for solids). The IP protection index is an international standard. This index classifies the level of protection offered by equipment against intrusions by solids (e.g. dust) and liquids (e.g. water, oil). |
| The first number indicates protection against solid objects |
| X = Not measured | - |
| 0 = Not protected | - |
| 1 = Protected against projection of solid objects 50 mm or greater in diameter | |
| 2 = Protected against projection of solid objects 12.5 mm or greater in diameter | |
| 3 = Protected against projection of solid objects 2.5 mm or greater in diameter | |
| 4 = Protected against projection of solid objects 1 mm or greater in diameter | |
| 5 = Protected against dust (limited ingress, no harmful deposits) | |
| 6 = Completely protected against dust |
| The second number indicates protection against liquids |
| X = Not measured |
- |
| 0 = Not protected | - |
| 1 = Protected against vertically falling water drops | |
| 2 = Protected against water drops (15° from vertical) | |
| 3 = Protected against rain (60° from vertical) | |
| 4 = Protected against splashing water | |
| 5 = Protected against water jets | |
| 6 = Protected against powerful water jets | |
| 7 = Temporary immersion (-1 meter for 30 minutes) | |
| 8 = Prolonged immersion (deeper than 1 meter for period defined by manufacturer) |
BEAM QUALITY
Aside from the various beam patterns, it is important to check their uniformity. Whatever the pattern, the beam of a Petzl headlamp is always uniform and therefore comfortable. Moreover, to ensure optimal lighting, the optics of our headlamps are designed with extreme precision and equipped with the highest-quality components.
The quality of the beam is totally dependent on that of the LEDs and of the optics' design. The latter is complex and requires the knowledge of an optical engineer. Petzl chose long ago to integrate these skills into its research and development teams, and also to work closely with external laboratories.

Presence of a central bright spot: blinding |
Presence of visual defects: lack of precision, discomfort, fatigue |
