Technical Specification Release 1, January 2018 3M Speedglas Welding Shield Series 100 Description Easy to operate and maintain. - Use with 3M Speedglas Welding Filter 100V: Five adjustable dark shades 8-12 and a light shade of 3. Three sensitivity settings. - Use with 3M Speedglas Welding Filters 100S-10 and 100S-11 have single dark shades of 10 and 11, respectively, and a light shade of 3. - Dark shade can be increased to 13 or 14 using upgrade plates. Has three user selectable levels of detector sensitivity to ensure a reliable arc detection. Has excellent visibility in light state, shade 3, for easy welding preparation and after treatment. Multiple adjustments for highest comfort on helmet and headband. Can be used in conjunction with many reusable and maintenance-free respirators for welding. Common Applications When used with recommended filters, are designed for most welding processes such as: MMA MIG/MAG TIG Plasma welding IMPORTANT NOTE i Always wear ANSI approved safety spectacles as primary eye protection. Welding helmets are considered secondary eye protection. Approvals/Standards ANSI Z87.1 ANSI Z89.1 (when used with a hard hat) CSA Z94.3 Equipment Markings Additional Markings Shall be disposed of as electrical and electronic waste Read the instructions before use3M Personal Safety Division Limitations of Use Only use with original 3M branded spare parts and accessories listed in the user instructions and within the usage conditions given in the technical specifications. The use of substitute components, decals, paint or other modifications not specified in these user instructions might seriously impair protection and may invalidate claims under the warranty or cause the product to be noncompliant with protection classifications and approvals. Eye protectors worn over standard ophthalmic spectacles may transmit impacts thus creating a hazard to the wearer. Use of this product in applications outside its intended use, such as laser welding/cutting, may result in permanent eye injury and vision loss. Severe burn injuries may result if these welding helmets are used for heavy-duty overhead welding applications where there is a potential for falling molten metal. Should the product fail to switch to the dark state in response to an arc, stop welding immediately and inspect the welding filter as described in the instructions. Continued use of a welding filter that fails to switch to the dark state may cause temporary vision loss. If the problem cannot be identified and corrected, do not use the welding filter, contact your supervisor, distributor or 3M for assistance. Materials which may come into contact with the wearers skin are not known to cause allergic reactions to the majority of individuals. These products do not contain components made from natural rubber latex. Flashing light sources (i.e. flash tube strobe lights, safety warning lights, etc.) can trigger the welding filter causing it to flash even when no welding is occurring. This is inherent with all auto-darkening filter technology. This interference can occur from long distances and/or from reflected light. Welding areas must be shielded from such interference, or replace lights with an LED strobe light.
