this manual.
2. USE LIMITATIONS
Do not work under possible sever impact conditions. This
equipment is designed to protect under normal welding
conditions.
Do not work out of the margins of this equipments design.
This equipment does not protect against corrosive liquids
or in an explosive atmosphere.
Do not work out of the margins of this equipments design.
Using this equipment with temperatures lower than -5ºC
or higher than 55ºC effects filter design and could cause
permanent damage to the eyes and even loss of vision.
This equipment must be used for overhead welding and
laser cutting and welding.
This equipment is not designed to work in wet conditions
or in water. Do not submerge in liquid.
Do not work out of the margins of this equipments design.
The use of this equipment in any other type of activity that
requires a level of protection higher than 13 could cause
permanent damage to the eyes and even a loss of vision.
This equipment is not designed to be used with laser cutting
or any other work that requires a grade greater than 13.
Do not use this equipment in extensive overhead soldering.
Dangerous burns could be received if there is a possibility
of droppings from molten metal. Do not use dissolvent on
the filter or helmet.
INTRODUCTION
The product "welding mask AS-XL" includes 2 photo
sensors implanted at eye level in the automatic darkening
filter. This filter darkens or lightens automatically depending
on the level of light induced.
The filter is transparent before soldering that the way
that the user can observe clearly the surface of the work
area. When the solder arc energizes, the filter will darken
immediately. When the arc is finished, the filter will become
transparent once again.
The time that is takes for the filter to go from transparent
to dark is extremely fast: 0.00004 seconds.
Filter protection is adjustable in a way that the user can select
the level of protection between degrees 9 to 13 (EN 379).
The filter gives the user complete and permanent
protection from inferred and ultraviolet radiation even in
transparent mode.
The filter has a special position for grinding. In this position
the filter doesn´t dark with the sparks of an angle grinder.
