Optrel Panoramaxx Hybrid CLT PAPR welding kit with e3000X system, 4550.681

Crystal Lens Technology is a breakthrough in what you see while welding, with colour rendering close to natural vision. Thanks to a special UV/IR filter, it reaches a clarity level of 2.5 in the light state, so you can judge the weld and its surroundings without lifting the helmet. A clear, undistorted view of the weld pool gives you full control of the process, which is essential in TIG welding and other precision work. Investing in CLT means better welds, less eye strain and more precise work.

The Panoramaxx Hybrid CLT was designed as a versatile tool for operators who work with both laser and arc. The system combines a passive laser filter (compliant with EN 207, OD7) with manual adjustment in the 3-8 range and a fully automatic welding filter with ShadeTronic® technology in the 4-12 range. This combination lets you move smoothly between the laser station and conventional welding without changing your personal protective equipment. It is a smart investment that makes the operator more versatile and removes the cost of buying and maintaining two separate specialist helmets.

The patented ShadeTronic® technology works like an autopilot for your eyes, automatically adjusting the shade level to the intensity of the welding arc. An advanced system of five sensors constantly measures brightness and selects the optimum protection level from 4 to 12 DIN in real time. You no longer have to adjust the shade by hand or guess, which matters especially when welding parameters change, for example in pulsed TIG welding. The result is continuous, well-matched protection in typical workshop conditions. It is an investment in maximum safety and concentration, so you can focus entirely on producing a perfect weld.

The innovative shell design with its distinctive cut-out around the nose places the ADF cassette much closer to the eyes. This apparently simple engineering step widens the field of view dramatically, up to sixfold compared with standard welding helmets. It removes the so-called “tunnel effect” and gives the welder full situational awareness, which is essential for safety at the workstation. The wider view also makes preparation for welding and orientation in the workspace easier. It is an investment in safety, comfort and productivity that pays off every day.

FadeTronic® technology controls how the filter brightens after the welding arc goes out. Instead of an abrupt jump back to the light state, the filter brightens smoothly and gradually, giving your eyes time to adapt. You can fine-tune this function by setting the delay time to suit your preferences and the afterglow of the material. This significantly reduces eye strain and fatigue, especially during long jobs or spot welding. It is a key investment in long-term eye health and working comfort.

The e3000X powered air system provides the highest possible level of respiratory protection (class TH3 according to EN 12941), filtering as much as 99.8% of harmful particles, fumes and aerosols. It works by creating a constant positive pressure inside the helmet shell, which effectively isolates the breathing zone from the contaminated surroundings. This protects your lungs from carcinogenic welding dust, an absolute priority in modern industry. It is a fundamental investment in your own health and in your ability to work in your trade for many years.

The e3000X system offers three adjustable airflow levels: 170, 210 and 240 litres per minute. This lets you match the output precisely to the working conditions and your own preferences. The highest level (240 l/min) not only delivers the maximum amount of clean air, but also creates a noticeable cooling effect inside the helmet. This is a real advantage during intensive work at high temperatures or in stuffy, poorly ventilated rooms. Adjustable airflow is an investment in thermal comfort, which translates directly into less fatigue and higher productivity.

The kit comes with a high-capacity lithium-ion battery that delivers up to 18 hours of operation on a single charge. That reserve lets you work comfortably through two full 8-hour shifts without stopping to recharge or change the battery. Intelligent energy management and an audible and visual low-battery alarm remove the risk of the unit switching off unexpectedly. It is an investment in continuous work and maximum efficiency at the workstation.
