The heart and pride of the Panoramaxx CLT visor is the revolutionary Crystal Lens Technology (CLT) 2.0, which is responsible for the unprecedented image clarity and color fidelity that delights professionals around the world. A key achievement is a brightness condition of just 2.0 DIN – it’s like looking through a perfectly clean glass! This makes welding preparation, electrode positioning or weld inspection extremely easy and comfortable, without having to lift the visor. In the darkened state, CLT technology, combined with True Color, provides a detailed, high-contrast and realistic view of the weld pool and surroundings. This allows for precise process control, easier defect detection and significantly reduces visual fatigue. If you value the absolute best visual quality, CLT 2.0 is the technology made for you.

Like other models in the series, the Panoramaxx CLT offers an impressive panoramic field of view, up to 6 times that of standard visors. This effect is achieved thanks to an innovative shell design with a distinctive nose cutout that allows the ADF filter to be positioned closer to the eyes. For the welder, this means tremendous benefits: much better orientation in the workspace, increased safety due to awareness of the surroundings, and an excellent, wide view of the welding area without having to constantly turn the head. The panoramic view combined with the crystal clarity of the CLT 2.0 creates a visual experience that makes it almost possible to forget the presence of the visor. In addition, the design effectively prevents evaporation of the inner breath glass, a common problem with traditional models.

Panoramaxx CLT is not just about superior optics, but also about intelligent protection. ShadeTronic® technology acts like a personal assistant, automatically adjusting the shade level from DIN 4-12 based on arc brightness. You can also manually adjust the setting by ±2 DIN, adjusting it perfectly to your preference. When you finish welding, FadeTronic® provides smooth filter brightening (time adjustable 0.1-2.0s), protecting your eyes from sudden light shock and reducing the after-image effect. Reliable operation is guaranteed by a system of 5 arc sensors with adjustable sensitivity (including a “Super High” mode for precision TIG). Although the automatic systems are very advanced, it is worth remembering that under extreme conditions (e.g., welding in deep grooves, very low TIG current) fine-tuning the sensitivity or selecting the manual mode (DIN 8-12) can ensure the most stable operation. 🧠

Comfort during long working hours is key. That’s why the Panoramaxx CLT comes standard with the innovative Optrel IsoFit® headpiece. Its unique design with three-dimensional adjustment (3D Fit) is designed to provide a perfect, personalized fit for any head (sizes S-XL). The double-layer construction and cable system with adjustment knob strive to optimally distribute the visor’s relatively low weight (600/610g), minimizing pressure and fatigue. Replaceable soft inserts take care of comfort and hygiene. However, be mindful of feedback from some users indicating the need for careful adjustment for full comfort, as well as comments made about the durability of the pad fasteners (available as a replacement part). For additional thermal comfort, a silver version of the visor is available, coated with heat-reflective paint – ideal for high-temperature work or prolonged welding. 🔥

Forget about batteries! The Optrel re-charge system in the Panoramaxx CLT is all about convenience and independence. The combination of solar cells and a powerful Li-Po battery makes the visor virtually energy self-sufficient during normal use. When you need a recharge (after prolonged storage, for example), simply connect it via a Micro USB cable to any power source. The rechargeable battery provides hundreds of charge cycles, offering long-term operation (although its eventual replacement after years will require service intervention). Equally convenient is the grinding mode (GRIND), activated by a single button on the outside of the shell. What’s unique about the CLT model is that it locks the filter in ultra-bright DIN 2.0 condition, providing unparalleled visibility during grinding, cleaning or inspection, comparable to working without a visor. 💡

Thanks to its Crystal Lens Technology 2.0, the Optrel Panoramaxx CLT is particularly recommended for tasks requiring the highest visual precision and excellent color distinction, such as high-quality TIG welding (even at low currents – it meets the “TIG+” standard), artistic work or welding in the medical or aerospace industry. Of course, its versatility also allows comfortable work with other methods(MMA, MIG/MAG, powder wire, plasma cutting). The shell design is suitable for overhead welding. Regardless of the application, you can count on the highest quality “Swiss Made” workmanship, which is the trademark of the Optrel brand. Confirmation of the manufacturer’s confidence in the product is the long 3-year warranty (after online registration, excluding batteries). 🏆
