Optrel Helix CLT welding kit with swiss air respirator - 4600.160

Crystal Lens Technology 2.0 is a major step forward in welding optics, with a light-state shade of 2.0 while the filter is inactive. Before you strike the arc, you get a clean, natural view of the workpiece, which makes it easier to position the electrode or torch precisely. In the darkened state the filter keeps colours true and contrast high, so you can watch the weld pool and the heat-affected zone closely. This matters when welding demanding materials such as stainless steel or aluminium. Choosing CLT is a direct investment in weld quality, less eye strain and fewer mistakes.

The slide-up design lets you switch smoothly between welding and grinding without removing the whole helmet. With one movement of the hand, the auto-darkening filter module slides up and reveals a large panoramic protective visor, suitable for preparation work, grinding and inspection. The whole unit is built into a full safety hard hat that protects your head in industrial conditions. This noticeably raises work efficiency, cuts out unnecessary breaks and keeps you protected at all times. It is an investment in ergonomics and time savings that pays off every working day.

The ShadeTronic® system works like a personal eye protection assistant, automatically adjusting the shade level to the intensity of the welding arc. Five advanced sensors monitor the conditions continuously and select the right shade in the range from 4 to 12. This removes the need for manual adjustment and the risk of working with the wrong shade, especially when the welding current keeps changing. You can concentrate fully on the weld, knowing that your eyes are properly protected every millisecond. It is an investment in safety and concentration that helps you reach the highest welding precision.

The swiss air system takes a new approach to respiratory protection by separating it from face and eye protection. At its heart is an ultra-light blower filter unit (only 550 g) worn on an ergonomic harness, which delivers clean air directly to a ventilated half mask. The half mask, made of flame-retardant material, keeps constant positive pressure around the mouth and nose and effectively blocks harmful fumes, dust and aerosols. This design not only protects you but also supports breathing and helps prevent fatigue. It is an investment in freedom of movement, comfort and health, whatever the task.

Swiss air provides the highest possible respiratory protection class, TH3, which means its high-efficiency filter captures at least 99.8% of all harmful particles. This is essential now that welding fumes are classified as carcinogenic. Just as important, the positive-pressure half mask concept means the system does not need the time-consuming and often awkward fit tests that are mandatory for conventional tight-fitting masks. It is an investment in the highest safety standard, combined with maximum convenience and time savings in daily use.
