Optrel swiss air, a new kind of respiratory protection system (PAPR)
Optrel swiss air is a breakthrough in personal respiratory protection, made for professionals who will not compromise on safety, comfort and freedom of movement. The system separates respiratory protection completely from face and eye protection, which makes it exceptionally versatile. At its heart is an ultra-light filter blower unit (just 550g) worn on an ergonomic harness, which delivers perfectly clean air directly to the breathing zone. It sets a new standard for all-day comfort in the most demanding environments.

Technology in detail
A new modular concept, full freedom of choice
The swiss air system is designed as an independent, self-contained solution that deliberately separates respiratory protection from face protection. This means you can use it with any welding helmet you like (including other brands), a hard hat, a grinding shield or even on its own. This versatility removes the need to invest in one manufacturer's closed ecosystem and lets you adapt your equipment flexibly to the task at hand. swiss air is an open platform that grows with your needs instead of limiting them.
Positive pressure zone and active breathing support
The ventilated half mask, made of an advanced flame-retardant material, creates constant positive pressure around the mouth and nose. This continuous flow of filtered air forms an effective barrier against harmful dust, fumes and aerosols and also actively supports breathing. You do not have to work to draw air through dense filter material, which significantly reduces fatigue during long hours of work. It is an important investment in productivity and lower physical strain, which means better concentration throughout the day.
Ultra-light, ergonomic design, comfort without compromise
At the heart of the system is a filter blower unit weighing just 550 grams, one of the lightest in its class. It sits on your back in a specially designed ergonomic harness that distributes the weight evenly and gives you complete freedom of movement. This design completely removes the load on the head and neck that is typical of systems integrated into the helmet. So even after a full day's work you do not feel the discomfort of wearing protective equipment. It is a direct investment in your health and your ability to work comfortably for many years.
Highest filtration efficiency, class TH3
The swiss air system uses high-efficiency particle filters and provides the highest possible level of respiratory protection, certified as class TH3 to EN 12941. This means the system filters out at least 99.8% of all harmful solid and liquid particles from the air you breathe, including carcinogenic welding fumes, dust and aerosols. The control panel on the shoulder strap lets you monitor the system and adjust the airflow as you work. Choosing TH3 protection is a fundamental, uncompromising investment in your own health and a safe working future.
