Autodarkening helmet offers brightest view in light state

The vegaview2.5 autodarkening welding helmet from optrel inc. offers the brightest view in light state with a shade level 2.5, says the company. Shade level 2.5 offers welders a 400 percent brighter view of their environment than a typical shade level 4 in light state, according to the manufacturer.

The lens includes a True Color Filter to help welders see their workspace in realistic color without having to raise their helmets. External controls give welders infinite shade level adjustment from 8 to 12.

Sensor sensitivity is adjustable based on the work environment, and opening delay is adjustable as well. The patented Sensor Slide allows the detection angle to be reduced from 80 to 60 degrees, preventing the autodarkening filter from responding to nearby welders’ arcs.
