Bollé Safety launches its new range of protective helmets designed for welding professionals
Bollé Safety, a leader in PPE (Personal Protective Eyewear), announces the launch of its new range of active welding helmets. Comprising three models – VOLT 2.0, ELECTRO and ELECTRO+ - this range incorporates the latest technologies in eye protection to meet the specific needs of welding professionals. With wider fields of vision, optimised reaction times, adapted shades and enhanced comfort, Bollé Safety offers high-performance solutions for all levels of requirement.
VOLT 2.0
Accessible performance and next-generation technologies
The VOLT 2.0 model, an improved version of the current VOLT product, incorporates the latest technologies on the market to offer welding professionals a high-performance, easy-to-use helmet. This new generation stands out for its faster shade adjustment and specific TRS1, TACK2 and Self Check3 functions, ensuring optimal responsiveness and enhanced safety.
Equipped with a new generation digital filter, VOLT 2.0 stands out thanks to:
+ A 96x39mm field of view providing good visibility of the working area;
+ An ultra-fast reaction time of 0.05ms, significantly accelerating the response time between light and dark states for instant protection;
+ An additional new welding range (3/4-8/9-13) for less dark protection with a maximum shade of 13, suitable for a wider range of welding operations;
+ A filter with an LED display for easy use and reading of settings;
+ 2 sensors ensuring reliable detection of the welding arc;
+ External control of Weld/Grind4 mode for intuitive operation;
+ A simple, adjustable 3-point harness that easily adapts to all face shapes.
Featuring a modern matte black design, VOLT 2.0 combines technical performance and professional aesthetics, perfectly suited to the daily needs of welders.
ELECTRO
A versatile model with a wide field of view
Offering a wide field of vision and a wide range of shades, the ELECTRO model is designed for welders seeking an excellent compromise between visibility and versatility of use.
This versatile balaclava stands out for:
+ A large 108x74mm field of view offering expanded visibility of the work area, ideal for precision welding and long sessions;
+ The GRADIENT function allows for gradual colour gradation according to light intensity, for smooth adaptation to lighting variations.
+ 4 sensors ensuring reliable detection of the welding arc in all working positions;
+ A comfortable harness with 5 adjustment points that adapts perfectly to all body types.
Equipped with a filter with LED display, external Weld/Grind control with shade adjustment and easy battery replacement, ELECTRO also offers a maximum shade of 13 to support professional welders in all their daily operations.
ELECTRO+
The solution offering maximum visibility and cutting-edge technologies
Designed for the most demanding professionals seeking ultimate visibility and performance in all types of welding operations, ELECTRO+ stands out from ELECTRO thanks to six major innovations:
+ A Maxi screen with an extra-wide field of view measuring 116x81mm, offering maximum visibility for optimal working comfort and increased precision, particularly during complex welding operations;
+ The AUTO/MEMORY/GRADIENT functions offer intelligent tint management: instant adjustment to changes in light intensity (AUTO), gradual transition between protection levels (GRADIENT) and storage of customised settings (MEMORY) to optimise visual performance.
+ A maximum shade of 14, the highest level in our range, guaranteeing absolute protection during the most intense and bright welding operations;
+ A low-power EPD5 screen, eliminating any risk of battery discharge and ensuring permanent display of parameters;
+ Full external control (mode/shade adjustment/setting memory) offering maximum customisation directly from outside the helmet, without interrupting work.
+ 5 sensors ensuring reliable detection of the welding arc in all working positions.
With its distinctive matte design and features that incorporate the advantages of ELECTRO, such as easy battery replacement, ELECTRO+ combines high performance and meticulous craftsmanship to set a new standard in visibility and display technology.
Beyond their specific features, the entire Bollé Safety welding range (VOLT 2.0, ELECTRO, ELECTRO+) shares essential common characteristics:
+ Enhanced True Colour technology, offering natural and accurate colour vision for greater precision at work and optimal visual comfort;
+ Scratch protection on all models, ensuring increased durability and consistent visibility even in the most demanding environments;
+ Textile accessories compatible with all three models: rear head protection (full helmet) and front neck protection (bib), ensuring optimal protection against molten metal splashes and sparks.
+ Spare parts available for all models: interchangeable external and internal protective covers for optimal durability, as well as replacement headbands adapted to each model (3 adjustment points for the VOLT 2.0, 5 adjustment points for ELECTRO and ELECTRO+).
The entire range is certified according to the new EN ISO 16321-16 and 16321-27 standards, meeting the most stringent international safety requirements. For easy transport and storage, the models come with a protective cover to optimise product durability.
“With the launch of this new welding range, we are taking an important step forward in our commitment to industry professionals. Our goal remains to offer innovative solutions adapted to all levels of requirement, while incorporating cutting-edge technologies. We have worked on several major areas: optimising reaction times for instant protection, gradually expanding the field of vision depending on the model to improve comfort and precision, and integrating new-generation screens. These concrete innovations meet the real expectations of welders in the field: visibility, responsiveness, autonomy and comfort.”
RUSH+2.0 WELDING : THE EYEWEAR SOLUTION
Bollé Safety completes its welding range with the RUSH+ 2.0 WELDING model, safety glasses specially designed for light welding operations. Featuring passive shades 1.7, 3 and 5, an optimised fit and PLATINUM8 anti-fog and anti-scratch treatment (a technology usually reserved for standard safety glasses, here applied to welding equipment), they offer a grey tint that optimises colour perception. Available in two sizes (S and M/L), these goggles complement the range of helmets designed for more intensive work.
1TRS (Time Response Switch): Function to accelerate the response time between light and dark shades
2TACK: Spot welding function allowing protection to be adapted for short operations
3Self Check: Self-diagnostic function that checks the proper functioning of the filter
4Weld/Grind: Welding mode (Weld) and grinding/cutting mode (Grind)
5EPD (Electronic Paper Display): Very low power consumption electronic paper display, similar to e-reader displays
6EN ISO 16321-1: ISO 16321-1 defines the general safety and performance requirements for safety spectacles and eye protection used in the workplace.
7EN ISO 16321-2: ISO 16321-2 defines additional requirements specific to welding activities, including filtration criteria and the performance of automatic welding filters.
8PLATINUM: A treatment on both sides of the eyepiece, which reduces fogging and limits scratching, K & N certified according to EN ISO16321-1.
