It is machine washable, lightweight and foldable.

Who the workband 2 hard hat strap is for

Everyday wear with or without head protection, and shared fleets that need washable mounts.

• Everyday Navigator use

Choosing the right accessories

For the rugged headsets (Navigator 520 and Z1), choose a mount that matches your site rules: brand-specific hard hat clips give the firmest fit on MSA, Honeywell, Petzl, 3M and Japanese helmets; the universal hard hat band fits most other front-brim hard hats; the Workband 2, Tri-Band Strap and Overhead Band are for use without a hard hat or under a bump cap; and the ball cap suits outdoor, light-duty work.

For power, the Navigator 520 uses hot-swappable 2600 mAh batteries: pair spares with the single-bay charger and a Quick Charge 3.0 USB-A adapter. The lightweight headband model (Arc 3) charges over USB-C or on its desk/wall charging station, powered by a USB-C Power Delivery adapter.

For connectivity and sensing, the Mini LTE Modem adds 4G where there is no Wi-Fi, and the thermal camera module adds FLIR thermal imaging to the Navigator 520. Remember that only certified accessories keep the Navigator Z1 intrinsically safe.

2. Adjust the Velcro back.
3. Wear alone or under a hard hat or bump cap.

Care and maintenance

Machine wash as needed, let it dry completely before use, and replace it when the Velcro wears.

Tri-Band head strap: overview

This head strap is a three-point elastic Tri-Band strap that replaces the standard overhead strap on the rugged assisted reality headset (RealWear Navigator 520 and Navigator Z1).

Three anchor points distribute the headset's weight more evenly, reducing fatigue during extended use and giving a more secure fit across a wider range of head sizes.

Unlike the Workband, which runs only around the sides, the Tri-Band has straps on both sides and one over the top, giving more adjustability and good positioning over many helmet and cap shapes.

Who the tri-band head strap is for

Users wearing the headset for hours at a time who want a more secure, evenly balanced fit.

• Long shifts
• Very active work
• Workers who find side-only bands loose
• Use with caps and helmets
• Shared fleets

Overhead headband: overview

This overhead headband mounts the rugged assisted reality headset (RealWear Navigator 520 or Navigator Z1) in a headphone-style form factor. At just 49 g it gives a secure fit with memory-foam pads and an adjustable slider.

Like the headband of premium headphones, it is natural to adjust, and simple sliders make it quick to hand the headset between workers.

It is one of the smallest head mounts, so it can be worn under a hard hat. It is very secure in normal use but can become less stable if the wearer often tilts their head beyond 90°.

Who the overhead headband is for

Workers who prefer a headphone feel or need to wear the headset under a hard hat.

• Workers who prefer a headphone-style fit
• Shared headsets
• Use under hard hats
• Office and light-industrial use
• Training

Features in detail

49 g

Very light.

Memory-foam pads

Thermal camera module: overview

This thermal camera module adds thermal imaging to the rugged assisted reality headset (RealWear Navigator 520) by combining a 48 MP visual camera with a FLIR Lepton 3.5 thermal sensor, developed together with Teledyne FLIR.

FLIR's MSX technology overlays visual detail onto thermal images, helping workers detect heat signatures and spot problems invisible to the naked eye, across -20 °C to 400 °C (-4 °F to 752 °F).

It replaces the standard camera, keeps the IP66 rating, and is operated entirely by voice, so both hands stay free during electrical inspections, motor and pump checks or building diagnostics.

Who the thermal camera module is for

Electrical, mechanical and building inspections, predictive maintenance and utilities.

• Electrical inspections
• Motor and pump maintenance
• Building diagnostics
• Predictive maintenance programmes
• Utilities

Features in detail

Five voice-controlled modes

Standard, thermal, low blend, high blend and MSX.

FLIR Lepton 3.5 with MSX

Adds visible detail to thermal images.

48 MP visual camera

High-resolution documentation.

-20 °C to 400 °C

Wide measurement range.

IP66

Rugged like the headset.

FLIR Thermal Studio

Compatible with the (subscription) software for analysis and reports.

Compatibility

Compatible with the RealWear Navigator 520.

Choosing the right accessories

For the rugged headsets (Navigator 520 and Z1), choose a mount that matches your site rules: brand-specific hard hat clips give the firmest fit on MSA, Honeywell, Petzl, 3M and Japanese helmets; the universal hard hat band fits most other front-brim hard hats; the Workband 2, Tri-Band Strap and Overhead Band are for use without a hard hat or under a bump cap; and the ball cap suits outdoor, light-duty work.

For power, the Navigator 520 uses hot-swappable 2600 mAh batteries: pair spares with the single-bay charger and a Quick Charge 3.0 USB-A adapter. The lightweight headband model (Arc 3) charges over USB-C or on its desk/wall charging station, powered by a USB-C Power Delivery adapter.

For connectivity and sensing, the Mini LTE Modem adds 4G where there is no Wi-Fi, and the thermal camera module adds FLIR thermal imaging to the Navigator 520. Remember that only certified accessories keep the Navigator Z1 intrinsically safe.

Setup and use

1. Power off the headset and remove the standard camera module.
2. Fit the thermal module and secure it.
3. Power on and say the voice command to switch camera modes.
4. Export images to FLIR Thermal Studio for reports if needed.

Care and maintenance

Wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth, keep it away from solvents and excessive heat, and inspect it regularly for wear. Replace it as soon as it no longer holds or protects as it should.

Very noisy plants, compressor stations and hazardous areas where hearing protection is mandatory.

• Oil and gas
• Chemical plants
• Heavy manufacturing
• Workers wearing respirators
• Very noisy sites
