Technology Details
Crystal Lens Technology 2.0, See the Weld Like Never Before
Crystal Lens Technology (CLT) is a breakthrough in welding optics and reaches a world-record light state of 2.0. This gives light transmission of 31% in the idle state, so looking through the filter is almost the same as looking through clear glass. Combined with the True Color filter, this technology removes the greenish tint and gives an exceptionally clear, high-contrast image of the weld pool. This allows precise assessment of the process, which matters most in demanding methods such as TIG welding. Investing in CLT translates directly into better welds and full control over the welding process.
ShadeTronic® Autopilot, Smart Protection in Real Time
The patented ShadeTronic® technology works like a smart autopilot for your eyes. Using advanced sensors, the system continuously measures the intensity of the welding arc and, in real time and fully automatically, selects the optimum shade in the range from 4 to 12. This removes the need for manual adjustment and for guessing which protection level suits the task. Whether you are making quick tacks or welding at high current, the helmet always provides the right protection. It is an investment in uninterrupted work and in the certainty that your eyes are protected in typical workshop conditions, so you can focus entirely on precision.
FadeTronic®, Smooth Brightening for Eye Comfort
FadeTronic® technology changes the moment when welding stops, eliminating the sudden brightening of the filter that tires the eyes. Instead of jumping from dark to light, the filter returns smoothly and gradually to the idle state, giving your eyes time to adapt. You can set the transition time from 0.1 to 2.0 seconds to match the afterglow of the material and your personal preference. This patented function considerably reduces eye fatigue, especially during long jobs and frequent tacking. It is a key investment in eye comfort and health that minimises strain over many hours of work.
Certified TH3 Respiratory Protection
The e3000X air supply system provides the highest possible level of respiratory protection, certified to EN 12941 as class TH3. This means the high-efficiency particle filter removes 99.8% of harmful dust, fumes and aerosols produced during welding and grinding. The system creates a zone of constant positive pressure inside the helmet, which effectively isolates the user from the contaminated environment. Since welding fumes are classified as carcinogenic, this is a fundamental investment in your own health and in safe work for many years.
Three-Level Airflow Adjustment with Cooling Effect
The e3000X system is designed for maximum comfort, even in extreme conditions. You can choose between three airflow levels: 170, 210 and 240 litres per minute. This lets you match the airflow precisely to the ambient temperature and how hard the job is. The highest level (240 l/min) creates a noticeable cooling effect on the face and forehead, which greatly improves comfort when welding in hot halls or in summer. It is an investment in productivity that helps you keep your concentration and energy throughout the working day.
High-Capacity Battery for Two Work Shifts
At the heart of the e3000X system is a powerful lithium-ion battery designed for maximum reliability and continuous work. Depending on the selected airflow level, a fully charged battery provides power for up to 18 hours of uninterrupted operation. This lets you work through two full shifts comfortably without breaks for charging. It eliminates the risk of downtime and ensures that the protection system works whenever it is needed. It is an investment in reliability and peace of mind, with full operational readiness.
