Drager X-Plore 8500 Powered Air Respirator Kit for Welding
The Drager X-Plore 8500 Powered Air Respirator range is designed to protect your respiratory system in the toughest of environments. This kit has been put together to suit most welding applications and includes the Drager X-plore 8500 Blower Unit, high-capacity battery, welding belt, filter P R SL, welding visor (ADF 5-13), spark-proof hose cover and the standard hose (for connection to helmets & visors).
Powered air hoods are ideal for those who wear spectacles or have facial hair as the hood can completely cover the head. A facemask would require a tight seal to the face, which would mean wearers would have to be completely clean-shaven. There is no need to be face-fit tested with a hood, like you would with a mask, so the kit should be ready to use out of the box.
The welding protection visor will protect you from sparks, splashes and harmful light rays that could occur during welding. It offers protection according to EN 175 B (visor) and EN 379 (ADF).
Fumes from welding applications can cause serious damage to your lungs and respiratory system, so correct use of PPE is crucial.
