This new filter has been designed to meet the requirements of European welders utilising Jackson Products own ADF (Auto Darkening Filter) technology.
As the arc is struck it takes 1/12,000 seconds, one of the fastest switching speeds available for ultimate welder safety, to switch from clear to dark.
It gives the welder all-round flexibility ensuring eye safety for a wide range of luminescent arc applications.
Operated by 2 x AAA batteries, it has 2 x independent sensors on the front of the filter, which can be either on the top or bottom depending on how the welder chooses to install in the helmet.
The filter controls are on the inside of the helmet for safety purposes and have easy to read functions.
The welder can choose between 3 filtering selections - a welding mode, here the welder can adjust dark shade between 9-13, adjust the sensitivity and adjust the delay between 0,1-1 second, a Torch mode for cutting steel, indicated by an amber light, uses a shade 5 filter and there is a Grinding mode indicated by a green light.
A flashing red light will tell the user when the batteries need to be changed.
If the user forgets to switch off the filter at the end of his/her assignment, the filter will automatically power down after 20 minutes.
