Auto-Darkening Filter Welding Helmet

Research shows that auto-darkening helmets offer productivity gains and are comfortable to wear because they eliminate the lifting and nodding motion that is necessary with passive helmets. It is estimated that three percent of an average welder’s day is spent lifting and nodding his or her helmet. In Booth N-14059, the new Jackson Safety* TrueSight II Auto-Darkening Filter (ADF) Welding Helmet from Kimberly-Clark Professional (Roswell, GA) delivers best-in-class optical clarity for enhanced precision and productivity while delivering superior visibility and advanced color recognition.

Welding is an art that requires attention to detail, strong engineering skills and craftsmanship that shows both pride and skill. Taking the art of welding to its highest level requires the most advanced equipment and technology. The TrueSight II ADF Welding Helmet features Balder technology, which offers the highest standards of optical clarity that can be achieved when using an ADF. The helmet provides a uniform share level over the entire viewing area, without noticeable brightening at the edges of the filter. The proprietary, best-in-class technology of the Truesight II decreases angular dependence to virtually undetectable levels, increasing welder comfort and productivity. For optimal efficiency and effectiveness, the helmet also provides a clear view from various angles to reduce eye fatigue and the need to move, adjust and refocus. In fact, the technology achieved the highest rating for optical clarity per the DIN Rating EN 379, and the best classification for angular dependence. That means it gives the welder the flexibility to see clearly at many different angles minimizing weld defects.

Also on display is the Jackson Safety* Airmax Elite Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) that protects workers from the respiratory dangers of welding fumes and heat stress, without sacrificing visibility. This welding helmet delivers the best-in-class optical clarity available in a PAPR, coupled with an enlarged viewing area and an auto darkening filter with Balder Technology to reduce eye fatigue and enhance welding accuracy. The flame-retardant face seal protects against sparks while audible and vibrating signals indicate when the battery or filter needs to be changed.
