Speedglas™ Adflo™ PAPR with G5-01 Welding Helmet and G5TW Auto-Darkening Filter 46-1101-30TW
Genuine Speedglas™ Adflo™ PAPR (Powered Air Purifying Respirator), with G5-01 welding helmet and G5TW Auto-Darkening Filter, provides clean, easy breathing for up to 12 hours of welding. The Adflo blower assembly, with HE filter, removes harmful weld fume and other particulates associated with welding; including hexavalent chromium. The G5-01 welding hood features a flip-up shell and two independent air-flow controls that allow you to customize the distribution of purified air within the helmet. Air can be directed toward visor/face and top/sides in whatever combination provides you the most comfortable welding experience.
The G5-01 with G5TW ADF offers Natural Color Technology and 12.3 square inches of viewing area. The entire front portion of the helmet flips up to reveal an integrated clear polycarbonate grinding shield with a 27.4 square inch viewing area. The G5TW's extra bright shade 2.5 light state is optimal for weld shops that have significant grinding and/or tack welding applications. Unlike most auto-darkening welding lenses that have a shade 3, or even shade 4 light state, G5TW's shade 2.5 light state provides a superior, natural color view of the work piece that is clear and uncompromising. Special tack setting in the lens' delay control, optimizes lens response while tack welding. The G5TW also provides outstanding performance for all kinds of MIG, TIG and stick welding applications.
The Speedglas G5-03 Pro-Air with G5TW ADF has other innovative features, like TAP Function and Bluetooth connectivity. TAP Function allows you to quickly and easily switch between grind/weld mode and cut/weld mode by simply tapping on the outside of your helmet shell. With welding gloves still on, you can tap the side of your helmet to change from grind to weld, or cut to weld, and back again. There is no need for external grind controls. Bluetooth connectivity, through the Speedglas app on your phone, keeps track of usage data, maintenance intervals and firmware updates for your lens. Through the app, you can also program memory modes, sensitivity and delay settings, and have instant access to owner's manuals. You can also electronically "mark" your lens to help prevent theft.
The Speedglas G5-01 with G5TW ADF has four arc sensors and operates in weld, cut and grind modes. It is rated for low amperage TIG welding down to 1 amp. Switching speed is 0.1 milliseconds. The G5-01 with G5TW auto darkening welding hood features shade 8-13 weld mode, shade 5 cut mode and shade 2.5 grind mode/light state. It comes complete with Speedglas' innovative headgear, with independent friction and helmet "park" controls. Adjustments for crown height, distance and headsize add to overall welding comfort and safety.
