3M™ Speedglas™ 9100 Premium Welding Shields

Number One in Welding

The Speedglas™ welding lens was the first commercially viable auto-darkening welding lens; and with its exclusive technology has been the benchmark for auto-darkening welding shields ever since.

Still ahead of its time more than 30 years since the first prototype, Speedglas’ revolutionary technology continues to make it the safest and most reliable brand of auto-darkening welding shields available. Speedglas remains the world’s leading brand of personal protective equipment for welders.

MadeinSweden.BuiltforAustralianConditions.

For almost three decades, we have worked closelywith welders, safety engineers and ergonomic specialiststo consistently improve the performance and comfort of our products. We have also continued to collect feedback from welders across the world to assist us in creating welding solutions that deliver premium performance in comfort and protection.

High-comfort Head HarnessAll welding shields in the 3M™ Speedglas™ 9100 Series feature a highly adjustable, comfortable head harness. The outside of the human head is lined with nerves, arteries, and acupressure points; applying pressure to some of these spots actually makes a person feel fatigued. The 9100

MoreComfortableWhenRaisedIn the raised position the Speedglas 9100 shield’s “high point” is comparatively lower than other similar solutions which means that it is closer to the head delivering superior balance. Improvements in balance means that the headband does not need to be tensioned as much, thereby increasing wearer comfort.

“Parked”PositionThe smooth up-and-down pivot action can be “locked” in the up position - a light pull lowers the shield back down again.

Series head harness specifically avoids these vulnerable areas. It provides multiple adjustment combinations so you can “tailor” the shield to fit your personal preferences and comfort setting. Less pressure - and a perfectly-adjusted, personal fit - means more comfort, all day long.

Self-adjusting “twin pads” contour to your head.

Two adjustable crown straps distribute weight for better stability and balance.

Fits head sizes 50 to 64cm.

Smooth ratchet for precise tightening.

Swiveling, self-adjusting back strap accommodates a cap worn backwards.

Snag-resistant knobs for adjusting the shield’s pivot action — even while wearing gloves.

You can adjust the shield’s angle while wearing the shield on your head.

3M™ Speedglas™9100AirWeldingShieldNew Respiratory ProtectionAll of the benefits of the Speedglas™ 9100 welding shield can now be used in combination with the 3M™ Adflo™ powered air respirator or 3M™ Fresh-air™ C supplied air regulator. The Speedglas™ 9100 Air welding shield features:

An airduct that is an integral part of the shield, providing a refreshing airflow across the entire breathing zone of the shield.

The innovative 3M™ Quick Release Swivel (QRS) enables one-handed breathing tube connection and release.

The all-new face seal, follows the contours of both the shield and your face.

3M™ Speedglas™ 9100 FX Welding ShieldNew Flip-up Shield FunctionalityIntroducing the Speedglas™ 9100 FX welding shield, a flip-up combination of an auto-darkening welding shield and a protective visor. Not only is the viewing area larger

compared to previous models, we totally redesigned the geometry of the shield for a wider field of view in all directions.

Smooth flip-up function with curved 17 x 10 cm clear protective visor, increasing your peripheral vision to 170°.

Exclusive exhaust vents to assist in removing exhaled air.

A spark and spatter-resistant, fabric head cover is standard in all Speedglas 9100 FX Series welding shields. An optional extended-length head cover and ear/neck protection are available as accessories.

Improved respiratory protection. Reduced inward leakage means better breathing air quality.

3M™ Speedglas™9100FXAirWeldingShield

All of the benefits of the Speedglas™ 9100 FX welding shield can now be used in combination with the 3M™ Adflo™ Powered Air Respirator or 3M™ Fresh-air™ C Supplied Air Regulator. Workers can have integrated face, eye and respiratory protection -

whether they are grinding, welding, or simply walking through a work zone. The Speedglas 9100 FX Air shield has revolutionised the manner by which airflow is delivered to the welder resulting in improved respiratory protection and comfort.

High-comfort Speedglas 9100 head harness.

The innovative 3M™ Quick Release Swivel (QRS) enables one-handed breathing tube connection and release.

The breathing tube is attached to the head harness instead of the shield for improved comfort and balance.

A quick lift of the silver front and you get a clear, big, 17 x 10 cm view — perfect for precision grinding in low light conditions, while maintaining your respiratory protection.

To achieve a higher level of respiratory protection, air is supplied directly to the breathing zone. A diffuser broadens and reduces the speed of the airflow for your maximum comfort.

3M™Adflo™PoweredAirRespiratorACool,RefreshingBreezeforHotWorkingConditionsWith its smart, compact design, the award-winning 3M™ Adflo™ powered air respirator is specially designed to meet your welding needs when used with the 3M™ Speedglas™ 9100 Air or 9100 FX Air welding shields. Its continuous airflow provides filtered air that takes much of the heat and sweat out of welding. By using the Adflo respirator, you get both increased protection and comfort all day long.

Full MobilityThe slim profile is perfect for use in tight spaces. Its ergonomics are based on the welder s need for lightweight, adaptable and easy-to-use respiratory protection.

AnAdaptableSystemthatSavesMoneyWith the right type of filter, the Adflo respirator effectively protects against both particles and gases – all in one system. Because you can selectively replace either the particle or the gas filter as needed: you don’t need to change both filters at the same time.

ConstantFlowofCleanAirThe airflow is always a constant nominal rate of 170 litres/minute, regardless of the battery’s charge or the particle loading of the filter. For hot, humid jobs, you can increase the airflow to 200 litres per minute by simply pushing the ON button a second time.

A Filter cover: holds the user-replaceable spark arrestor, which reduces the risk of filter fires.

B Prefilter: increases the service life of the particle filter.C Particle filter: high efficiency particulate filtration.D Gas filter: (A1B1E1 or A1+) captures organic, inorganic and acid gases and vapours.

Gas filters sold separately.E Odour filter: removes unpleasant smells (not needed if the gas filter is installed);

sold separately.F NiMH battery: fully charges in four hours. Expected operating time is 8 hours

with new particle filter and new, fully-charged battery.G Brushless motor: with an average life three times longer than conventional motors. H Filter/Battery Indicator: indicates the status of the particle

filter and battery. As an added security feature an audible alarm sounds when the filter is so loaded that the airflow level cannot be maintained. If the alarm is ignored the unit automatically turns off for your safety.

I Airflow Plus: for hot, humid jobs, you can increase the airflow from 170 l/min to 200 l/min with the push of a button.

J Breathing tube: with innovative Quick Release Swivel (QRS) for one handed connection and release.

K Exclusive airflow pattern: evenly distributes filtered air throughout the entire breathing zone of the shield. The intelligent turbo unit keeps the airflow rate at a constant, preset level.

L Soft, flexible face seal (removed here for clarity): creates a positive pressure environment within the shield, keeping the surrounding pollutants at bay.

Welding EnvironmentThe 3M™ Fresh-air™ C (compressed air) respirator system with a nominal protection factor of 100+ is ideal for welding environments where supplied air respiratory protection is needed. The Fresh-air C is compatible with the 3M™ Speedglas™ 9100 Air or the 9100 FX Air welding shield.

Lightweight System DeliversMaximumAirflowThe lightweight, belt-mounted regulator allows you to adjust the airflow from 160 to 300 litres per minute, making the Fresh-air C regulator ideal for hot and strenuous work.

ConnectstoAirHosesThe belt-mounted regulator connects to an approved air hose with a quick release connector system. The airline supply must be air of breathable quality meeting the requirement of AS/NZS1716. Oil mist or water vapour in the airline or non-toxic, unpleasant odours can be removed with a breathing air filtration system.

Respirator StandardsThe Fresh-air C system complies to AS/NZS 1716 for compressed air respirators. Note: Fresh-air C cannot be used if the atmosphere has been classified as Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH).
