Hard work never felt so easy!

The Helix 2.5 perfectly fits Optrel’s helmet-independent fresh air system Swiss Air. But that's not all. Because now you can also weld, cut, or grind with the Helix Pure Air 2.5 as a fresh air helmet in combination with the ATEX-certified e3000X PAPR system.

Clean and fresh air is channelled directly into the helmet, where it circulates around your head, protecting you perfectly and keeping you pleasantly cool at the same time. This makes Helix Pure Air the first helmet of its kind in the Helix family.

An ATEX-certified PAPR system such as the e3000X provides clean and fresh air and protects you from the harsh reality of smoke, aerosols, dust, and harmful gases. All this is in combination with the usual advantages of Helix: It is lightweight, easy to adjust, and perfectly balanced – thanks to the innovative slide-up technology.

Optrel Air Fed Helmets FAQs

Straight answers to the questions people ask most when choosing a complete auto-darkening helmet and powered respirator package.

What is a ready-to-weld package and what should it include?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

A ready-to-weld package combines an auto-darkening welding helmet with a powered air-fed respirator unit, so you get head, eye, face and respiratory protection that are intended to work together. Typically it includes the helmet, a blower unit, a battery and charger, a breathing hose, filters and a belt or harness.

Check the contents list of the exact package, because items such as spare filters or a spark pre-filter are not always included. Buying matched parts also avoids doubt over whether the combination has been tested and approved together.

What does the lens rating and clarity of an auto-darkening filter mean?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Auto-darkening filters are classified for optical quality, how even the shade is across the lens, how little it varies with viewing angle, and how quickly it reacts. Better ratings give a clearer, more consistent view, which reduces eye strain on long jobs.

For most welders, high optical quality, a wide shade range and adjustable sensitivity and delay are the practical points. Check the shade range covers the processes you use, including low-current TIG, where sensitivity matters most.

How long do the battery and filters last in everyday use?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Run time depends on the battery type and condition, the airflow setting and the filter loading. Temperature and a clogged filter can also affect it. Batteries lose capacity as they age and should be replaced when run time drops.

Filters last according to the amount of fume and dust they see, so heavy use means more frequent changes. Do not wait for failure. Check the data plate and manual for your own unit, and replace the filter when the airflow warning appears or the filter is damaged or wet.

Can I wear safety glasses, a hard hat or ear defenders with the helmet?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Many helmets are designed to be worn with prescription or safety glasses, and some models are built to integrate with a hard hat or have attachments for hearing protection. Fit varies a lot between designs.

Check that nothing breaks the seal or pushes the lens or visor out of position, and that the airflow still reaches your face. If you work around overhead hazards, choose a design intended for use with head protection, rather than improvising.
