The latest announcement is in line with Weldtech’s vision of supplying engineering firms, small fabrication businesses, hobbyists and enthusiasts with the highest-quality welding equipment at reasonable prices.
Experienced in the welding equipment trade, Weldtech has been in operation for several years and supplies the highest-quality welding supplies, welding machines, tools, consumables and welding accessories to businesses and personal buyers across the UK
The need for welding protection has become greater in recent years, since it was recognised that even mild steel welding fumes are a potential cause of serious lung diseases. HSE guidance now points out that it is of paramount importance to keep exposure to all welding fume as well as the glare, to a minimum. This becomes especially important in high-risk areas such as some locations in the nuclear site at Sellafield, where high-filtration equipment such as the ESAB Sentinel A50 is essential.
To keep out any fumes that the welder might breathe in, the Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) unit filters air and then pumps it into the space between the welder’s head and the helmet shell. The gentle flow of clean air protects the lungs and the outward pressure pushes out any dirty air that attempts to seep in. To ensure comfort, the helmet uses a soft breathable fabric with an adjustable head cradle. To cope with a huge variety of welding techniques and working environments, the Auto Darkening Filter (ADF) has eight separate memory settings.
This package is provided with ESAB’s PAPR unit. This unit is worn around the waist, collecting and filtering the air, which is pushed through a connecting tube to the helmet. As well as providing clean air, the flow of air also helps to cools the user’s head, making the helmet comfortable and suitable for use over long working days. The air is filtered to a very high degree and the units are rechargeable.
The unit provides 170 litres of clean/filtered air per minute, providing highly efficient protection for the welder, preventing them from inhaling any of the toxic weld fumes. It is hard-wearing and capable of withstanding tough environments and features an audio alarm to signal a low battery or a blocked filter.
Alongside the new helmet, Weldtech will continue to supply other models and brands of welding helmets. The team have a large selection available online and a well-stocked store based just outside Carlisle, in Dalston’s Barras Lane estate. In addition, Weldtech offers a huge range of other carefully selected welding equipment such as welding machines, consumables and welding PPE. For more details, visit https://www.weldtech.co.uk
The helmets and other equipment are an ideal investment for businesses that operate along Britain’s Energy Coast or for those working in the Sellafield nuclear site.
