The fifth sensor runs CIGWELD’s OptiShade technology, which sets the shade automatically from the light the arc is giving off. It suits welders running MIG, TIG, stick and high-amperage flux-cored work, and fabricators who switch between welding, grinding and cutting throughout the day. This version has the Fallout graphic finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCertified Eye Protection for Australian Worksites\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe XC80’s auto-darkening filter is certified to ISO 16321-2:2021, the current international standard for welding filters. It has an optical class rating of 1\/1\/1\/1, the highest score for optical clarity, light diffusion, shade consistency and angle dependence. It is also tested to AS\/NZS 1337.1 and AS\/NZS 1338.1 for impact resistance and optical performance. This is the documentation a safety officer or site supervisor needs when checking PPE against Australian standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptiShade automatic shade control\u003c\/strong\u003e: A dedicated fifth sensor reads the light coming from the arc and adjusts the shade to suit.
