Shade Guide Table
The auto-darkening helmet is equipped with shade levels from 9 to 13. The
shade level has to be adjusted manually according to the application. Please
note the response time from dark to bright and the switching time from bright
to dark from the Technical Data.
Select the correct shade level from the below table according to your
application. Depending on your personal preference you can use the next
higher or lower shade level.
