Auto-darkening welding filter featuring LiFE+ Color ADF technology that provides greater clarity of vision. Shade adjustments: 5, 8, 9-13 and 14, 15.
The auto-darkening filter (ADF) is an electronic filter cassette that darkens from light state to a pre-selected dark shade when the welding arc is ignited. Select the appropriate shade before you start welding. This product is designed to help protect your eyes from harmful radiation including visible light, ultra-violet radiation (UV) and infra-red radiation (IR) resulting from certain welding processes. ADF offers permanent protection against UV/IR rays, heat and sparks in any state from the light to the dark.
SAFETY:
• When fitted to a suitable face shield that meets the necessary and local safety standards, this ADF is suitable for welding, grinding, cutting, spraying and arc gouging. It is not suitable for laser welding.
• This ADF is suitable only for oxygen cutting in the oxygen flow rate range 900-2000 l/h. In the cutting mode, shade 5 is used. In the cutting mode the filter does not change from light to dark, but remains constantly dark.
• The ADF does not protect against explosive devices or corrosive liquids.
• Always use the protective lens on the ADF. Replace the protective lens when it becomes dirty/discolored/worn/ cracked/scratched/pitted.
• Avoid heavy knocks on the ADF as it may break.
• If the ADF does not darken when the arc ignites, stop welding immediately. Inspect the ADF, check the batteries and change if necessary. If this does not help, contact a Kemppi representative or your supervisor.
• The ADF is not water-proof or water resistant. Do not immerse it in water. Protect the filter from contact with liquids and dirt.
• The recommended operating temperature range is -5°C…+55°C (23°F…131°F). Do not use the ADF beyond this temperature range.
• Never place the ADF on a hot surface.
• Never open or tamper with the ADF.
• Do not make any modifications to the ADF, unless specified in this manual.
• Do not use other replacement parts than those specified in this manual. Unauthorized modifications and replacement parts void the warranty and may expose the wearer to unnecessary risk of personal injury.
• clean the surface regularly. Do not use strong cleaning solutions or solvents. Always keep the sensors and solar cells clean. See Maintenance.
• Materials which may come into contact with the wearer’s skin can cause allergic reactions.
•Failure to follow these safety instructions and/or failure to follow the operating instructions may cause voiding of the warranty and cause a risk of personal injury.
