OVERVIEW

Stay in Command of Your Fresh Air

When you are in the middle of a long weld or grinding in a dusty shop, the last thing you want to worry about is your breathing equipment. The Optrel Swiss Air Control Unit puts the power of your PAPR system right at your fingertips. Mounted conveniently on your shoulder strap, this control panel allows you to adjust your fresh air supply without ever having to take off your helmet or unbuckle the blower unit from your back. It is the brain of your Swiss Air system, ensuring you stay cool and protected.

Adjust on the Fly
Need a boost of air during a hot job? Simply press the large, glove-friendly button to cycle through the three airflow settings. Whether you need the maximum cooling of 130 l/min or want to conserve battery with the standard 100 l/min setting, the choice is yours instantly. The control unit makes it easy to customize your comfort level to match the intensity of your work.

Know Your Status
No more guessing games about how much battery life you have left. The clear LED indicators on the control panel show you exactly how much charge remains, so you can plan your breaks accordingly. It also monitors your filter status, letting you know when the HEPA filter is loading up with particulate. This proactive monitoring helps you avoid unexpected shutdowns and keeps your lungs protected with clean, filtered air all day long. If your original control unit has been damaged, this genuine Optrel replacement restores the full functionality and convenience you rely on.
