The new Optrel HELIX is a new and unique welding/ grinding helmet solution. This goes against the norm with the flip-up mechanism inside the helmet. This minimises the weight and lowers the number of consumables. The auto-darkening lens features a nose cut-out, bringing the glare shield closer to your eyes with up to six times larger field of view. With the Helix CLT, Optrel offers a welding helmet for work under the most difficult conditions.

A slide-up helmet with internal ADF that has all the technical features of an Optrel helmet:

  • Panorama XXL field of view
  • Shade levels 7-12
  • CLT - Crystal Clear Technology
  • Inactive shade level 2
  • ShadeTronic®
  • Fadetronic
  • Rechargeable battery unit with charging via welding arc
  • 5-point multi-detection sensor technology

Product Details

The new internal flip-up welding helmet with a panoramic field of view and Crystal Lens Technology

The Helix CLT is designed for extreme performance. With a protection level range from 7 to 12, it is ideal if you need the practical slide-up function to switch between different tasks and a large field of view with extremely bright and true colour vision when welding.

ShadeTronic - Always the right shading level. Fully automatic, stepless, safe. A light sensor permanently measures the intensity of the welding arc and continuously regulates the glare protection over the entire shading level range.

Panorama-XXL-field of view - The patented nose cut-out brings the glare shield closer to your eyes. The result is a much larger field of vision and a clear separation between the mouth and eye area, preventing the protective lens's tarnishing.

Fadetronic - Fade out when switching off the protection level after welding. Wellness for your eyes for fatigue-free work.

Fronius Welding Helmets FAQs

Answers for buyers choosing and looking after Bluetooth-enabled auto-darkening welding helmets, including those used with a powered air system.

Do I need a gas filter as well as the particle filter?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

It depends on the work. The HSE points out that particulate filters do not protect against the gases that are present in welding fume. Depending on the process, the material and any coatings, your risk assessment may call for a combined filter that also deals with gases or vapours.

Always use the filter types and breathing tube that the powered unit's maker approves for your helmet, as mixing parts can invalidate the protection. If you are unsure which filter your work needs, our team can help you choose, but the final decision should rest on your risk assessment and the maker's instructions.

How do I check a powered air unit before I start welding?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Follow the maker's pre-use checks every time. These normally include a look at the filters, hose and seals for damage, checking the battery level, and testing the airflow with the flow meter or indicator supplied. Many units also have a low-airflow warning, and if yours does you should confirm it works as the manual describes.

Do not weld if the airflow check fails or the warning does not work. Replace blocked filters as the manual describes, and keep a spare charged battery if you weld for long periods. The exact test method differs between units, so use the instructions that came with yours.

How often should a reusable powered respirator be examined?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Reusable respiratory protective equipment needs regular thorough examination and, where appropriate, testing, carried out by properly trained people following the maker's instructions. The HSE's guidance on respiratory protective equipment says this should be monthly, or every three months if the equipment is used less often, with records of examinations, tests and repairs kept.

This is separate from the quick check you do yourself before each use. Your employer or safety adviser should set the programme from the maker's instructions and your risk assessment, and worn hoses, seals and filters should be replaced promptly rather than waiting for the next scheduled examination.

What does a shade range of 5 to 12 mean?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

The shade range shows how dark the lens can be set when the arc is lit. A lower number lets through more light, which is helpful for low-current work where you need to see detail, while a higher number is darker and suits higher currents. A wide range lets one helmet cover a variety of jobs.

The right shade depends on the process and the welding current, and it is normally taken from the shade selection table in the relevant standard or the helmet manual. If the process you use needs a darker or lighter shade than the range allows, that helmet is not suitable for it.
