Optrel crystal 2.0 PAPR: welding helmet for the e3000X air supply system
The Optrel crystal 2.0 PAPR is a welding helmet for the e3000X powered air system. You get the helmet only, without the blower unit: you buy the e3000X blower with battery and filter separately or as a complete set with the e3000X. The TH3 protection class, air flow and battery run time described below apply when you use it with the e3000X.

Technology Details
Crystal Lens Technology (CLT) 2.0: See Welding in a New Way
Crystal Lens 2.0 technology is a major step forward in welding optics, reaching a record light transmission of 31% in the light state. This corresponds to shade 2.0, so the view through the filter is practically indistinguishable from looking through a clear pane of glass. Combined with the True Color filter, the technology eliminates colour distortion, allowing you to judge the colour of the weld pool and its surroundings precisely. This clarity is essential for precision work such as TIG welding, where every detail matters. Investing in CLT technology is a direct investment in better weld quality and less eye strain.
ShadeTronic® Autopilot: Intelligent Protection in Real Time
ShadeTronic® technology works like an intelligent autopilot for your eyes, so you no longer need to adjust the shade level manually. Advanced sensors continuously measure the intensity of the welding arc and select the optimum level of protection in real time, fully automatically, in the range from 4 to 12 DIN. This allows the welder to concentrate fully on the task, regardless of changes in current or welding technique. The system also allows manual calibration within ±2 DIN to match individual preferences. It is a solution that maximises productivity and safety and saves you from constantly reaching for the adjustment knob.
FadeTronic®: Smooth Brightening for Eye Comfort
Standard filters switch from dark to light instantly once the arc goes out, which can cause momentary glare and discomfort. FadeTronic® technology changes this by brightening the filter smoothly and gradually over an adjustable time of 0.1 to 2.0 seconds. This controlled deactivation lets your eyes adapt comfortably to the change in light, significantly reducing eye strain, especially during long periods of tack welding. It is a basic ergonomic function that translates directly into less strain on your eyes and greater working comfort all day long.
True Color View: Realistic Image Without Distortion
No more of the green, distorted image typical of traditional helmets. Thanks to a specially coated UV/IR filter, True Color View technology provides natural, high-contrast colour perception across the whole spectrum. In practice, this means that without lifting the helmet you can read the red LEDs on the welding machine panel, judge the colour of hot metal or tell apart markings on the material. This improves not only comfort but also productivity and overall safety at the workplace. Investing in realistic vision means better orientation and more precise work.
Certified TH3 Respiratory Protection
Welding fumes are classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as a Group 1 carcinogen. The e3000X air supply system provides the highest level of protection available in Europe (TH3 according to EN 12941), filtering as much as 99.8% of harmful particles, fumes and aerosols. A zone of clean air with slight positive pressure is created inside the helmet, which effectively isolates your airways from the contaminated environment. It is a basic investment in your own health, allowing you to work safely for many years without the risk of occupational disease.
Three-Stage Airflow with Cooling Effect
The e3000X system is designed for maximum comfort, even during intensive work at high temperatures. You have three airflow settings: 170, 210 and 240 litres per minute. This lets you match the system output to the conditions and your individual needs. The highest airflow setting not only delivers a large volume of clean air but also creates a noticeable cooling effect on the face and forehead and at the same time prevents the visor from fogging up. It keeps you comfortable and fully productive even in the toughest industrial conditions.
High-Capacity Battery for Two Work Shifts
Uninterrupted work is essential for a professional. That is why the e3000X system has a highly efficient lithium-ion battery that, at the lowest airflow setting, provides power for up to 18 hours of continuous operation. This lets you work comfortably through two full shifts without charging or replacing the battery. It eliminates downtime and ensures that respiratory protection is active whenever you need it. It is an investment in reliability and continuous protection that lets you focus on the work rather than on the battery level.
