Welding Helmet - GYS

Shade 5-9 is typically used for lower amperage welding tasks, such as some MIG/MAG or TIG applications in specific conditions, or for tasks requiring a wider field of vision in brighter ambient light. Shade 9-13 is the standard range for most common arc welding processes like MMA, MIG/MAG, and higher amperage TIG welding.

The helmet utilizes both solar power and a replaceable CR2032 battery. The solar panel assists in powering the unit and extending battery life. Actual battery life varies significantly based on usage frequency, ambient light conditions, and sensor activation, but a CR2032 battery generally provides hundreds of hours of operation.

While the helmet offers excellent UV/IR protection (DIN 15), it is primarily designed for welding processes. Plasma cutting can generate different types of light and heat. For specific compatibility with plasma cutting, consult the product manual or GYS technical support, though it is generally not recommended for high-amperage plasma cutting.

This classification represents the highest optical quality ratings according to EN 379 standards: 1 for Optical quality, 1 for Diffusion of light, 1 for Variation in luminous transmittance, and 1 for Angle dependence. It signifies superior clarity and consistent performance across different viewing angles.

Yes, the headband is fully adjustable. It features a rear adjustment dial for controlling the circumference and a top strap for fine-tuning the vertical fit, ensuring comfort and stability for a wide range of users.

Clean the True Color lens gently with a soft, lint-free cloth. For tougher grime, use a mild lens cleaner specifically designed for optical surfaces or a slightly damp cloth. Always dry the lens thoroughly afterwards.

The reaction time from clear to dark state is an extremely fast 0.08 milliseconds, ensuring immediate protection the moment a welding arc is detected.

Check if the protective film has been removed from the sensors and lens. Ensure the shade setting is not on 'Grind Lock'. Increase the sensitivity setting. Replace the CR2032 battery if it is depleted.

Increase the sensitivity setting. Ensure the welding current is within the helmet's operating range. Replace the CR2032 battery if it is low.

Ensure the protective films have been removed. Clean the lens with a soft cloth. Check that the lens is correctly seated in the helmet.

Readjust the headband using the rear dial and top strap for a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the weight is distributed evenly.

Ensure the 'Grind Lock' feature is properly engaged according to the user manual. Check for any obstructions that might be preventing it from locking.
