Product Description
-------------------
The 3M Speedglas Welding Helmet 9100 with Auto Darkening Filter
(ADF) 9100XXi can be used for MMAW, TIG, MIG, Tack, Plasma and
arc welding processes. This welding helmet with 9100XXi auto
darkening filter (ADF) allows you to more readily recognize
colors with greater peripheral vision compared to our other
models. Improved vision may help you focus on welding setup,
welding technique, precision grinding and inspection of
just-completed welds. The 9100XXi featuring 3M Speedglas Natural
Color Technology helps assists in enhanced weld puddle control
with a view that appears lighter, brighter and more realistic.
Three arc detection sensors in the lens activate the auto
darkening filter quickly after striking an arc. Selectable dark
shades 5, 8, 9 through 13 with a light shade of 3 and a viewing
area of 72 mm X 107 mm. The 3M Speedglas Silver Front Panel
9100XXi houses external controls, enabling fast and easy access
to the grinding and memory modes without removing safety gloves.

From the Manufacturer
---------------------
The 3M Speedglas Welding Helmet 9100 with Auto Darkening Filter
9100XXi helps provide professional-grade eye and face protection
from debris and harmful radiation while offering better
visibility. With improved optics, the 3M Speedglas Auto Darkening
Filter 9100XXi allows you to more readily recognize colors as
compared to our other models. Welders will see a view that is
less green. Colors, shades, tone as well as light and dark
contrasts will all stand out with more vivid detail. Many welders
will find they have better control of the weld puddle with a view
that appears lighter, brighter and more realistic. This may help
you focus on your welding set-up, welding technique, precision
grinding, and inspection of completed welds.
Switch Between Welding and Grinding in just 2 to 3 Seconds --
all with Your Gloves On
This helmet also comes with the 3M Speedglas Silver Front Panel
9100XXi, which offers the convenience of sw between
welding mode and shade 3 grinding mode with a simple "gloves-on"
touch of an external button on the silver front panel. There is
no need to remove the helmet to change these settings. Memory
modes allow accessing one of two pre-set welding modes. Both
memory modes have an individual setting for dark shade, light to
dark sw sensitivity and dark-to-light delay. An instant
"Grab and Go" feature automatically turns the welding filter on
to your most recent welding setting whenever you pick up the
helmet. To save on power, it automatically shuts down after a
period of inactivity.
Auto Darkening Filter Reacts Quickly After Striking an Arc The
Speedglas lens features user-selectable dark shades of shades 5,
8, 9 through 13, and a light shade of 3. With a viewing area of
2.8 inches high x 4.2 inches wide (72 mm x 107 mm), the 9100XXi
provides the largest viewing area available in the 9100 Series
helmets, and an expansive field of view that helps the welder to
see the work in progress with minimal obstruction. Three arc
detection sensors in the lens activate the auto-darkening filter
when an arc is struck. The lens then switches from light to dark
shade in approximately 0.1 milliseconds (1/10,000 of a second),
giving the welder an instant transition from light to dark shade
while maintaining an optimal view for torch placement and weld
puddle control. When the weld is complete, the filter
automatically returns to light shade 3 with a delay of
approximately 40-250 milliseconds, allowing almost immediate
inspection of the weld pool and preparation for the next weld.
Exhaust vents readily direct your exhaled air out of the helmet,
helping to reduce heat, humidity and fogging of the welding
filter.
The auto darkening filter can help reduce the need to flip the
welding helmet up and down between torch placements, which boosts
productivity by reducing the stop-and-start time needed with
passive lens welding helmets. This feature can also reduce neck
stain from “helmet nodding,” while greatly increasing the
accuracy of torch placement. The helmet’s battery life is
approximately 2,000 hours. The two Cr2030 3V lithium batteries
that power the Auto-Darkening filter are easily accessible and
replaceable, extending the helmet life.
