5. Instruccions de funcionament
The HT-111 helmet offers various adjustments to suit different welding and grinding tasks.

Figure 5: Clear view before welding and auto-darkening during welding.
5.1 Encès/Apagat
The auto-darkening filter is solar-powered and automatically activates when exposed to light. There is no manual on/off switch for the auto-darkening function itself.
5.2 Shade Control
The external shade control knob (8 in Figure 2) allows adjustment from DIN 4 (light state) to DIN 9-13 (dark state). Rotate the knob to select the appropriate shade level for your welding process.
5.3 Ajust de sensibilitat
The sensitivity knob (3 in Figure 2) controls how easily the arc sensors detect the welding arc. Adjust it to prevent false darkening from ambient light or to ensure darkening in low-amp Soldadura TIG.
5.4 Delay Time Adjustment
The delay time knob (4 in Figure 2) sets how long the lens remains dark after the welding arc ceases. A shorter delay is suitable for tack welding, while a longer delay is recommended for high-amperage welding to protect eyes from afterglow.
5.5 Welding and Grind Modes

Figure 6: Multiple applications supported by the helmet.
The HT-111 helmet supports various applications:
- Mode de soldadura: For MIG, TIG, ARC (Stick), and other welding processes. The lens automatically darkens to the selected shade (DIN 9-13) upon arc ignition.
- Mode de mòlta: For grinding operations. The lens remains in its light state (DIN 4) to provide clear vision while protecting against sparks and debris. Ensure the helmet is set to Grind Mode before starting grinding to prevent accidental darkening.
