The Speedglas 9002X
An X-tra large viewing area is combined with advanced electronics to deliver the most versatile auto-darkening welding lens ever! For welders handling a variety of amperages and different arc welding processes, this is the best!
The Speedglas 9002X has a big 4.09" x 2.13" viewing area, with clear, sharp optics and consistent shading across the entire viewing area.
A solar panel on the front of the lens cassette helps to power the unit, extending battery life to approximately 3000 hours.
Choose from 61 control combinations to guarantee the most efficiency and comfort no matter what you are welding. Greater Sensitivity
The 9002's newly-developed detectors increase sensitivity to provide reliable switching for a wide range of welding methods, even extremely stable arcs like those from low amp TIG inverters.
Greater Comfort
The 9002 introduces a new Delay function that lets you decide how quickly the lens changes from dark-to-light.
Examples of New Delay Function:
You are doing high amp welding on stainless, creating an extremely bright weld pool. When you stop for a second to reposition the electrode you don't want to immediately see the brilliant glowing light from the hot weld pool, so you set Delay to "+" to add time before the lens switches from dark to light.
You are quickly making a series of tack welds. You want to be able to rapidly check each weld before moving to the next position, so you set Delay to "-" to reduce the time for dark-to-light switching.
Examples of Improved Sensitivity Function
You are welding pipe or tube with partially obscured arcs. (Or your hands are partially blocking the arc.) By selecting greater Sensitivity, you can get reliable darkening even with hidden areas.
You are using a new TIG inverter with settings as low as 1 amp and virtually flat frequency. Select a greater Sensitivity and the 9002's photosensors will sense the arc for reliable auto-darkening.
Choose from 3 Delay Settings
to match how quickly then lens changes from dark-to-light to the job. (Lens always provides full UV/IR protection.)

Adjust With Gloves On
The 9002's new menbrane-covered control buttons let you change settings or turn on/off with your gloves on. The membrane seals the lens from dirt. Much faster than analog knobs, too.
