Technology details
Modular design, smart investment
The shell is an integral part of the modular Optrel system. This lets you replace a damaged component economically without buying a new, expensive auto-darkening filter (ADF). It also offers an upgrade path for owners of the standard crystal 2.0 helmet, allowing it to be adapted to the e3000X respiratory protection system. This approach lets you manage your equipment flexibly and use it for many years. It is a well-thought-out investment that protects your initial outlay and lets your protection system grow with your needs.
Heat-reflective paint: comfort in extreme conditions
The silver coating of this shell is not just about looks, it is above all a thermal technology. The special paint effectively reflects radiant heat from a high-current welding arc or from the working environment. In practice this means a noticeably lower temperature inside the helmet, reducing operator fatigue and sweating. Better thermal comfort lets you work longer and with more concentration. Investing in this technology is a direct investment in productivity and comfort during the most demanding welding jobs.
Designed for Crystal Lens Technology: uncompromising optics
This shell is precisely designed to take the flagship Optrel crystal 2.0 auto-darkening cassette. This lets you make full use of Crystal Lens Technology (CLT) with a light state of 2.0. You get an almost perfectly clear and natural view of the workplace before striking the arc, which makes preparing the material and positioning the electrode easier. Combining this shell with the crystal 2.0 cassette gives you a tool of exceptional optical quality. It is an investment in precision that lets you see every detail of the weld pool and produce top-quality welds.
Integrated air distribution system
The shell comes factory-fitted with a dedicated air duct and a face seal, both key elements of the e3000X system. The duct is designed to distribute clean air evenly inside the helmet, creating a gentle, cooling breeze across the forehead without irritating the eyes. The tight connection with the face seal maintains constant positive pressure, which is required to reach the top TH3 protection class. This is not an ordinary shell but a precisely engineered component that ensures the effectiveness and comfort of the whole respiratory protection system.
