Designed for welders, grinders, and industrial professionals, the Optrel e3000x powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) provides clean, filtered airflow with intelligent airflow monitoring, long battery life, and lightweight design.
The Optrel e3000x powered air-purifying respirator delivers advanced respiratory protection without sacrificing comfort or mobility. Designed for welders, grinders, and industrial professionals, it provides clean, filtered airflow for up to an entire shift—helping you stay protected, productive, and focused on the task at hand. With intelligent airflow monitoring, long battery life, and lightweight design, the e3000x sets a new benchmark for powered respiratory protection systems.
The Optrel e3000x PAPR system is engineered for professionals working in environments where smoke, dust, aerosols, and airborne particles are a constant concern. Using a high-performance blower and advanced TH3 filtration, the system filters up to 99.8% of harmful particles while delivering a steady stream of clean breathing air to compatible Optrel helmets and face protection systems.
Three adjustable airflow levels allow users to tailor ventilation to their work conditions, providing up to 240 liters of air per minute while maintaining comfort and cooling inside the headgear. The intelligent airflow sensor continuously monitors performance, automatically calibrating airflow and alerting the user if filters become blocked or airflow changes—helping maintain protection throughout the workday. With up to 18 hours of battery life, the e3000x is designed to keep up with demanding shifts without interruption.
The e3000x is a powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) that pulls contaminated air through a high-efficiency filter and delivers clean air to the wearer through a breathing hose and compatible headgear. The positive airflow inside the helmet helps prevent contaminated air from entering the breathing zone.
The system uses TH3-rated filtration, the highest classification for particle filtration in this category. This means it removes up to 99.8% of harmful airborne particles, including smoke, dust, and aerosols commonly produced in welding and industrial work.
The e3000x is designed for extended workdays with up to 18 hours of battery runtime depending on airflow level. This allows most users to operate for a full shift without needing to recharge.
Yes. The system includes three airflow settings (170–240 L/min) so users can adjust ventilation based on workload, heat, or personal comfort.
Yes. The system includes three airflow settings (170–240 L/min) so users can adjust ventilation based on workload, heat, or personal comfort.
An integrated airflow sensor automatically monitors performance. If airflow changes or the filter becomes saturated, the system triggers an alarm and can automatically adjust airflow levels to maintain protection.
The e3000x PAPR is designed to integrate directly with a range of Optrel welding helmets, hoods and shields that support powered respiratory protection. This compatibility allows professionals to pair the e3000x with welding helmets, grinding shields, or multi-process protection depending on their work environment. Compatible headgear includes any helmets, hoods and shields designated as PAPR compatible. See below for a full list of e3000x compatible headgear.
