Autodarkening filter offers one-touch mode adjustment

Kimberly-Clark Professional has introduced the Jackson Safety W60 TrueSight, a new autodarkening filter (ADF) for welders that offers one-touch mode adjustment, intuitive digital controls, and improved visibility.

According to the company, the ADF is the only one on the market with separate buttons — identified with icons — to locate and control grind, torch, and weld modes. The large mode-selection buttons can be controlled with a gloved hand.

Features include a built-in magnifying lens holder; adjustable settings for shade, sensitivity, and delay; a 30 percent larger viewing area with amber band pass technology; and an automatic on/off feature that turns the lens off two hours after the last arc.

The filter's four sensors help reduce the possibility of blockages during welding. The comprehensive filter unit does not require a retainer, making it simple to install and remove. A solar panel extends battery life.
