5. Instruccions de funcionament
The HB001 helmet is designed for intuitive operation, automatically adapting to welding conditions.
5.1 Engegada/apagada
The helmet is solar-powered with built-in batteries and does not require a manual on/off switch. It is always ready for use. Ensure the solar panel is exposed to light to maintain battery charge.
5.2 Shade Control (DIN 9-13)
The shade level can be adjusted from DIN 9 to DIN 13 to suit different welding processes and current levels. Use the external knob to select the appropriate shade. The helmet also features a light state of DIN 4 for grinding.
- Soldadura MIG/MAG: Recommended Shade DIN 10-13.
- Soldadura amb pal: Recommended Shade DIN 9-13.
- Soldadura TIG: Recommended Shade DIN 9-13.
- CUT (Plasma Cutting): Recommended Shade DIN 5-9.
5.3 Control de la sensibilitat
The sensitivity control adjusts how easily the sensors detect the welding arc and trigger the darkening function. Adjust the internal 'SENSITIVITY' knob:
- Alta sensibilitat: Per a baixes amperage TIG welding or when the arc is partially obstructed.
- Sensibilitat baixa: Per alt amperage welding or when working near other welders to prevent false triggering.
5.4 Delay Control
The delay control determines how long the lens remains dark after the welding arc ceases. Adjust the internal 'DELAY' knob:
- Short Delay (0.1-0.25s): For tack welding or short welds, allowing faster transition to the light state.
- Long Delay (0.85-1.0s): Per alt amperage welding or when there is residual glow from the workpiece, preventing eye fatigue.
6. Manteniment
Un manteniment regular garanteix la longevitat i el rendiment òptim del casc de soldadura.
6.1 Neteja
- Lent exterior: Clean the outer protective lens regularly with a soft, clean cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the lens.
- Lent interior: The auto-darkening filter (ADF) should only be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquids or solvents on the ADF.
- Helmet Body: Wipe the helmet shell with a damp tela. Eviteu els productes químics durs.
- Sensors: Keep the arc sensors clean and free from obstructions to ensure proper auto-darkening function.
6.2 Informació sobre la bateria
The HB001 helmet is equipped with solar panels and built-in batteries. These batteries are not user-replaceable. Ensure the solar panel is regularly exposed to light to maintain the battery charge. If the helmet is stored in darkness for extended periods, the battery may discharge, affecting performance.
6.3 Emmagatzematge
Store the helmet in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and corrosive materials. Use the original packaging or a protective bag to prevent scratches and damage.
