Your helmet is one of the most crucial factors in getting the job done efficiently. The new Optrel SphereX Series welding helmets redefine welding vision with a commitment to clarity, comfort, and groundbreaking innovation
The SphereX Series is the next evolution in Optrel’s legacy of innovative welding protection. This technology is a three-pronged approach to enhancing vision, a foundation built over decades of research and development.
At the heart of this family is Crystal Lens Technology (CLT). The CLT provides a clear, true-color view in the light state, making it feel like you’re looking through a clear pane of glass.
Our five-sensor smart system ShadeTronic® supports this technology. It automatically changes the shade level as the arc’s intensity changes. This eliminates the need for manual adjustments and allows you to maintain focus on your work.
Finally, FadeTronic® smoothly fades the lens to its light state after the arc goes out. This “twilight” effect helps reduce eye fatigue and removes the annoying afterglow from high-amperage welds.
Before diving into the new SphereX Series models, let’s look at some of the foundational helmets that paved the way for this next-gen advancement.
Known as a world-record holder for its light state, the Vegaview 2.5 offers a remarkably clear view with a light state of 2.5, significantly brighter than most helmets. This model emphasizes true-color vision, grind mode, and a lightweight design. It is perfect for welders who value comfort and clarity.

The e684 introduces the concept of the “Adaptive Shade Autopilot,” (a precursor to ShadeTronic®). This helmet automatically changes its shade level based on the arc’s intensity. It offers reliable protection for many tasks, from low-amp TIG to high-amp stick welding. It features a true-color view, an excellent 1/1/1/1 optical rating, and the FadeTronic® function.
The Crystal 2.0 takes clarity to a new level. This helmet uses Crystal Lens Technology and a light state of 2.0 to provide a clear view of your surroundings. This helmet is well-known for its low color distortion and a clear view of the welding pool.
