Understanding ISO 3471 and ROPS Protection on the King Series ROXOR
Safety is an important consideration when operating any off-road utility vehicle.
One of the most significant milestones in the development of the King Series 4-passenger ROXOR was successfully achieving ISO 3471 certification for our Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS).
What Is a ROPS?
A Roll-Over Protective Structure, commonly called a ROPS, is designed to help maintain a protected occupant zone during a rollover event.
The structure works together with seat belts to provide occupant protection in off-road operating environments.
What Is ISO 3471?
ISO 3471 is an internationally recognized performance standard used to evaluate rollover protective structures.
The testing process subjects the structure to significant loads and evaluates its ability to maintain occupant clearance requirements.
Successfully completing ISO 3471 testing demonstrates that the structure has met the performance requirements established by the standard.
Why It Matters
Many customers purchasing a 4-passenger ROXOR plan to use it for:
Ranch operations
Hunting properties
Industrial facilities
Municipal applications
Mining operations
Recreational off-road use
Knowing the vehicle's ROPS has successfully met ISO 3471 performance requirements provides additional confidence in the design and engineering of the platform.
A Commitment to Quality
At King Series, our goal has always been to build a 4-passenger ROXOR that is not only functional and capable but also engineered to a high standard.
The successful completion of ISO 3471 certification is one example of that commitment.
