Welding fumes in the welding industry is a subject controlled by the HSE but more specifically the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations (COSHH advice sheets). To protect your welders against these hazardous fumes, air fed welding helmets are one of the best solutions. Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) will protect your welder against prolonged exposure to these contaminants that can lead to serious health issues like lung cancers.
While traditional welding masks will protect your eyes and face against the sparks generated when cutting or welding, air fed welding helmets go a step further by integrating ESAB PAPR systems to deliver clean, breathable air. In the case of ESAB welding equipment, it's the ESAB EPR X1.1 PAPR System that will be used to filter hazardous fumes. This ESAB PAPR system is equipped with a HEPA-quality, EN12941 TH-3P certified two-stage filter and spark arrestor, which is the highest standard on the market.
ESAB created a label called "WE CARE" for all there products that will protect welders against harmful welding fumes. These products work alongside the welder, to create a real safety environment for every welders in every situation.
