Other Products ｜Optrel Neo p550 Black Welding Helmet

The Optrel Neo p550 Black is a mid-range auto-darkening welding helmet that combines proven p550 shell design with Optrel’s newer ADF (auto-darkening filter) technology.
It is designed for welders who want true-color visibility, reliable arc detection, and lightweight comfort at an accessible price point compared to higher-end Optrel models.
This helmet is commonly used in fabrication shops, maintenance welding, light industrial work, and general-purpose MIG, TIG, and stick welding applications.

Key Features
True Color Vision
Delivers realistic color perception with reduced green/blue tint, improving weld puddle visibility, edge definition, and overall clarity during welding operations.

Auto-Darkening Filter (ADF)

Shade range: 9–13 (active welding mode)

Light state: Shade 4

Fast switching time: approximately 0.100 ms for rapid arc response

Energy Efficient Design
Built with an extended-life power system that can provide up to 3,000 hours of operation in standby/sleep mode without frequent battery changes.

3-Arc Sensor System
Equipped with three arc sensors for reliable arc detection, including low-amperage TIG welding and partially obstructed arc conditions.

Sensitivity & Delay Controls

Adjustable sensitivity (including high-sensitivity TIG mode)
Delay settings to control how quickly the lens returns to light state after welding

Comfort Headgear
Ergonomic headband system designed for:

Balanced weight distribution
Reduced neck fatigue
Adjustable fit for long wear periods

Lightweight Shell Design
Approximately 495–520 g, helping reduce operator fatigue during extended welding shifts.
