helix is a fully integrated slide-up welding helmet built for industrial work. It is light and compact, with the Panorama-XXL field of view, ShadeTronic® and FadeTronic, five arc sensors and a battery that recharges from the light of the welding arc. It comes with IsoFit® headgear and an industrial safety helmet to EN 397 — one helmet for welding, grinding and cutting, with no changeover.
The series offers three filter versions: helix clt with crystal lens technology and a 2.0 light state for the most natural colours, helix quattro with optical class 1/1/1/1 to EN 379 for the toughest jobs and out-of-position welding, and the versatile helix 2.5 with a 2.5 light state. Each is also available as a powered air version (pure air) or in a Ready-to-Weld package with swiss air or e3000X.
