I really wish safety gear was not so expensive. Many more people would use it, I believe. I would love to have one of these setups instead of wearing a passive respirator under my hood or face shield. I guess i'll just have to save up for it. Thanks for the demo video and keep it up!
Yes the PAPR's are expensive. When you are ready let us know we do have sales and promos. Also we do have some financing options for monthly payments if that helps.
I agree dude. It's really unfortunate. I'm a young guy just out of school and I don't want to be in the hospital during my retirement because of fumes. I wear a half mask now with the p100's but the ones for organic vapor (galvanized, stainless, aluminum) are too big to fit under my helmet. I guess if I can save 1500 I'll buy this it seems to be the best but man it sucks to not be able to afford for so long.
I am undecided between this system and the speedgkas 9100xxi fx with adflo. Leaning more towards the speedflas just because I have used them before and have one filter now for over 20 yrs. And still works well and was used very hard over the yrs. But I also hear good things about this optrel
Honestly I would really encourage you to go with the e3000X! The clarity on the Crystal is significantly better than the Speedglas. The PAPR is lighter and in our opinion better as far as battery life and filtration. (air 500 times cleaner!)
@@BakersGas whats the data on 500x cleaner air? need a papr for doing stainless starting to worry just using A p100 filter;. also need lightest helmet possible due to neck issues
@@jonathangarzon2798 I think he use air blower blow the dust off many time.and many holes on the filter. I use e3000 7years ,If I do heavy duty MIG welding the fifter will die in 1 weak.
Can this set be used with a hard hat adapter for a msg skull guard hard hat? if so I am really intrested in purchasing both for heavy duty Construction .
Was dying when I seen you stick your face in the smoke haha got to save up my pennies wish these we’re subsidized or something every welder deserves a papr
If you get just the helmet is it possibly compatible with other papr systems? I currently own the rpb z4 but it has too many pieces in the helmet that constantly need replaced. Would i potentially be able to hook up that papr system with the optrel crystal 2.0 helmet?
Which is better the miller T94I PAPR or the E3000X? I noticed the e3000X did not have any FR protection for the hose and it seemed excessively long, is there a covering available as an accessory? Are either able to be worn with a hardhat? Thank you for the uploads, your site has the best prices on products, definitely will be my place to shop
Hey! The Miller has always been popular! The Optrel really wins for filtration and battery life. To your point no it does not come with that cover but you can add that for around $35! bakersgas.com/products/optrel-4551221 Let us know if you have any other questions we stock both!
this doesnt filter any of the gases that are produced from welding. you need an activated carbon layer in that filter. this is basically just a dust filter..
Have a neck issue. I’m looking for the lightest possible helmet... but doing a lot of 316 stainless so now I want a papr. Which is the lightest amongst the paprs on the market
@@Uromastyxfanatics the helmet is very light and impressive. I weld stainless and I can’t even tack without smelling ozone. So as far as the air system I’m extremely unhappy and hoping to get a refund. But has it for about 2 months so don’t know if they will. Only used it like 4 times cuz I usually use my other helmet in the field
PAPR units like this are game changers.... This is at the top of my wish list!

One filter for 20yrs??? Dude I understand the filters aren't the cheapest but fuck might as well not wear the thing unless you only weld once a year

Optrel
Thanks for this great video.
That’d be nice for hot weather too!
Can this set be used with a hard hat adapter for a msg skull guard hard hat? if so I am really intrested in purchasing both for heavy duty Construction .
Is it possible to use it without the face seal and papr unit ?
Can I make it into a regular hood if I don't want to use the papr?

The blower on my 5 month old, PAPR 3000X , Failed recently I only used it maybe 4 hours a day, not great .

It's really blowing colder air compare to Swiss air?

Do you get any light reflection with that setup?
How many liters/min can it pump out
Does the mask ruin/mess with your beard? I've got about a foot long beard and I put alot of time and work into it 😅
Andrew makes it work. haha

I can't speak for the PAPR but I have the Crystal 2.0 standalone and that thing is light!
Hey Jeff! This is a SUPER light unit. Probably the lightest highest quality one we offer. We highly recommend.
@@BakersGas I just bought this . Is that harness included? I only got the belt? Cheers
@@Honeyddripdiddler hey Jeff how do you like it ? Thinking about getting one too

If I already have the crystal is there a damn way to make respirator work with it?
you could get the swiss air!

Can I use crystal 2,0 air with 3m adflo belt?
No you can not. You could use the swiss air :

Is the optrel e680 compatible with this papr unit?
