ESAB has auto-darkening welding helmets

An ESAB product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Oct 17, 2008

The New-Tech reactive welding helmet offers professional welders the latest technology in a lightweight helmet.

The New-Tech helmets feature Angular Dependence Compensation (ADC) technology that gives an even shade level across the full height and width of the viewing area that is 22 per cent larger than on previous helmets.

ADC technology means there is no need for the operator to adjust to different shades and have to compensate with excessive neck movement.

The result is reduced eye fatigue and increased comfort.

The design of New-Tech, with its rounded edges, deflects heat and welding fumes and provides more free space around the nose and mouth area to help prevent CO2 building up.

It provides full protection for the ears and cheeks, good scalp protection, and is adjustable so the user can move the helmet closer to or further away from the face.

There are four helmets in the New-Tech range.

The New-Tech 6-13 ADC and 9-13 ADC allow adjustment from the outside of the helmet of sensitivity and delay.

These provide shade setting from DIN 6 to 13 and DIN 9 to 13.

The New-Tech 6-13 ADC also has a grinding mode.

The other helmets in the range are the New-Tech 9-13 and New-Tech 11, which are both controlled from the inside of the helmet.

The 9-13 has sensitivity and shade setting from DIN 9 to 13, while the New-Tech 11, weighing 440g, has a single shade setting at DIN 11.

All four New-Tech models have replaceable sweatbands and cover lenses.

The helmets are backed by a free three-year warranty from ESAB.
