SHINE SPARX Double OLED+PAPR Welding and grinding helmet, True Colour and TH3 respiratory protection

The SHINE SPARX DOUBLE OLED+PAPR is a flip-up welding and grinding helmet set with a True Color OLED auto-darkening filter in 1/1/1/1 optical class and an integrated powered air system. The helmet offers a large 100 × 60 mm viewing area (approx. 6,000 mm²) and four arc sensors, providing a stable, high-contrast view for MIG/MAG, TIG and MMA welding. 

The OLED ADF is controlled via a wireless Bluetooth remote, allowing the operator to adjust shade, sensitivity, delay and grinding/cutting modes without removing the helmet. The shade range is DIN 4 – 5/9 – 9/13 with a switching time of 0.08 ms and an adjustable delay from 0.1 to 1.0 s. The ADF uses a rechargeable battery with more than 300 hours typical operating time and around 2.5 hours charging time; the battery is designed for more than 500 charge cycles. Minimum TIG current is about 3 A. 

The AIR-prepared SparX helmet features SHINE’s side entry air duct, which directs air from the side, reducing airflow directly in front of the eyes and improving hose routing and mobility in confined workspaces. Together with the close-fitting face seal and the SHINE PAPR blower unit, the system achieves an inward leakage below 0.2 % and is certified to EN 12941 TH3 P R SL, the highest class for this category.
