Beta welder's respirators
Beta XFA, SFA and PFA welding respirators provide cool and clean breathing air, from either a PFU 210e battery powered filter unit offering optimal freedom of movement around the workspace, or a supplied breathing air solution where the air flow is regulated from the RSA 230.

Easy breathing
Positive pressure design makes breathing effortless and keeps dangerous welding fumes out.
Clean and safe breathing air
Highly efficient filters block no less than 98% of the airborne particles.
Safety for multiple use
Premium protection for welding, tacking, cutting, grinding and inspection processes.
Welding respirator offers lightweight comfort and protection
Improved Beta e series welding respirators provide cool and clean breathing air either from a PFU 210e battery-powered filter unit offering optimal freedom of movement around the workspace or a supplied breathing air solution where the airflow is regulated from the RSA 230.
Although the connection to RSA230 more tightly controls the freedom of movement to a local area, supplied air solutions suit applications where welding and shielding gases may build up, displacing the breathing air.
Beta PFA/SFA/XFA welding respirator models are certified with a maximum inward leakage level of 2 % when connected to the PFU 210e filter unit. The PFU 210e PAPR offers the option of a combined particle and gas filtration set.
GapView feature
GapView switch sets a clear view beneath the welding visor providing a narrow 15 mm gap and clear vision of the working area. Ideal for work piece setting and tacking prior to welding. An excellent feature with passive welding lens models and ADF equipped models, where adjacent welding arcs can trigger nuisance ADF activations.

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks
Welding safety has become increasingly demanding. The hazards at the arc remain constant, but modern working conditions mean exposure can accumulate over longer shifts and in tighter indoor spaces. As a result, welding PPE needs to be treated as both protection for the welder and proof of compliance. At Kemppi, welding safety PPE is designed and validated in practice through clear requirements, welder-led feedback, and verified compliance with EU PPE Regulation 2016/425, CE marking processes, and relevant EN standards.
Eurosatory 2026 And the Future of Defence Manufacturing
Eurosatory 2026 highlighted a clear shift in modern defence manufacturing. While defence systems are becoming more digital, networked, and autonomous, their foundation remains physical. From armoured vehicles and artillery to industrial resilience, welding quality, steel structures, and production discipline remain paramount to defence readiness.
