From the Manufacturer
3M™ Speedglas™ Welding Helmet 9100 with Side Windows, Auto Darkening Filter and Hard Hat Adapter helps provide professional-grade eye and face protection from debris and harmful radiation including visible light, ultra-violet radiation (UV), infra-red radiation (IR), and sparks and spatter. Side windows with shade 5 filters increase your field of vision. Whilst offering high-level protection, this welding helmet also delivers on comfort, which can help increase on-the-job worker satisfaction and productivity. For professional welders, this welding helmet is a good investment that can pay off with greater service and satisfaction. An adapter makes it convenient to add a hard hat for welders in work environments where more overall head protection is necessary. (Hard hat sold one by one.)
Auto Darkening Filter Reacts Quickly After Striking an Arc
The Speedglas lens features user-selectable dark shades 5, 8, 9 through 13, and a light shade of 3. With a viewing area of 2.8 inches high x 4.2 inches wide (72 mm x 107 mm), the 9100XX provides the largest viewing area available in the 9100 Series helmets, and an expansive field of view that helps the welder to see the work in progress with minimal obstruction.
Three sensors in the lens activate the auto-darkening filter when an arc is struck. The lens then switches from light to dark shade in approximately 0.1 milliseconds (1/10,000 of a second), giving the welder an instant transition from light to dark shade Whilst maintaining an optimal view for torch placement and weld puddle regulate. When the weld is complete, the filter automatically returns to light shade 3 with a delay of approximately 40-1300 milliseconds, allowing almost immediate inspection of the weld pool and preparation for the next weld. Exhaust vents readily direct your exhaled air out of the helmet, helping to reduce heat, humidity and fogging of the welding filter.
The auto darkening filter reduces the want to flip the welding helmet up and down between torch placements, which can help to boost productivity by reducing the stop-and-start time needed with passive lens welding helmets. This feature can help reduce neck stain from “helmet nodding,” Whilst greatly increasing the accuracy of torch placement. This, in turn, can help reduce the need for grinding and rework, saving time, effort and money. The helmet’s battery life is approximately 2,000 hours. The two CR2032 3V lithium batteries that power the Auto-Darkening filter are easily accessible and replaceable, extending the helmet life.
Welding Protection with Excellent Optics, Wider Front Views and Side Windows
The 3M™ Speedglas™ Auto-Darkening Filters Series 9100 offers uniform shading and minimal distortion across all the filter viewing area. By selecting the right setting for each task, you help reduce eye strain and beef up the quality of every weld. Any shade can also be “locked-in.” For example, you’ll lock in the light state shade 3 for grinding. The 9100 series also includes an exclusive, innovative “tack welding comfort mode” which can help reduce eye strain.
One Helmet Works for Three Types of Welding
This fully assembled welding helmet with ADF (Auto Darkening Filter) offers sensitivity adjustments for use with most Stick (arc welding), MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding applications. The welding helmet uses an auto darkening filter that may be adjusted for different shades based on the welding amperage.
Versatile Eye and Face Protection for Welders
Welding helmets help protect the eyes and face in a lot of ways. For starters, the helmet blocks welding sparks and spatter from reaching the eyes and face. The helmet also protects the eyes from exceptionally bright light and rapid changes in brightness, which can both stress and harm eyes. Without protection, eyes can also be temporarily or permanently injured by the intensity of light produced by welding. Eyes also have difficulty adjusting to rapid brightness changes Whilst welding in dark locations, which can also be both a productivity and safety issue.
