GWL SHADE WELDING GOGGLE DESCRIPTION The Protector GWL is an Australian made Shade goggle designed for welding applications. The Welding goggle has a soft face seal and a traditional lift up lens holder. The goggle is fitted with two 0mm circular filter lenses shade and two clear polycarbonate chipping and cover lenses. The filter lenses are certified to AS/ NZS 1338.1:2012 and the chipping and cover lenses to (medium impact) The purpose of the chipping lens it provide clear vision and protection during non welding activities. The cover lens protects the filter lenses from pitting caused by metal sparks and hot molten metal spatter. APPLICATIONS Suitable for general industry including fabrication, engineering and maintenance operations. Suitable for Oxy gas welding operations, flame gauging, brazing and cutting. Suitable for gas welding, oxy cutting processes outlined in AS/NZS 133.

MARKINGS ON FACESHIELDS Markings on eye/face protectors are a requirement for certification. It assists users in identifying their intended use. They are identified by the following: STANDARD SYMBOL EXPLANATIONS I or F For medium impact protection V For high impact protection M For molten metal resistance C For splash resistance O For outdoor tinted LENS MARKINGS Markings on eye protectors are a requirement for certification. It assists users in identifying their intended use. They are identified by the following: STANDARD LENS MARKING EXPLANATIONS I = Medium O = Outdoor/Indoor (untinted or amber) OUTDOOR UNTINTED (FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR USE) These protectors are intended for indoor and outdoor use where no optical radiation hazards exist other than solar radiation. I = Medium (outdoor tinted, smoke, brown or photo chromatic) OUTDOOR TINTED These protectors are intended for outdoor use where no optical radiation hazards exist other than solar radiation. They are intended to provide adequate protection against sun glare and ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Filter Lenses (green shade ) Refer gas welding table. protection is determined by the metres per second in which a projectile travels. A ballistic test rig fires either a.00mm or a.3 mm projectile ball at speeds from 12m, up to 190m per second dependant on which size projectile is used. STANDARD RATING BALL SPEED IMPACT PROTECTION SITUATIONS.00mm.3mm Low Medium High Extra High 12m/sec 12m/sec Hammering, handling wire, brick chipping by hand 0m/sec 0m/sec Grinding, machining metals, woodworking 120m/sec 110m/sec Concrete cutting, high speed disc grinding, metal cutting 190m/sec 17m/sec Abrasive shot blasting, ballistic, military, electrical maintenance TYPE OF PROTECTOR Spectacles Spectacles, Eyeshields or lightweight visor systems Visor systems only Visor systems only Selecting eye protection is very much about identifying the hazards and assessing the risks. Selecting the wrong type of PPE can have serious consequences. It is important to consider the velocity, size and the nature of the hazard when evaluating eye/face protection.
