AP-AFI-01 - Walter Airplus PAPR Flow Test Tube

Protect Your Lungs with Daily Airflow Checks

As a professional welder, your lungs are your most valuable asset. The Walter Airplus Air Flow Indicator is your first line of defense against respiratory hazards. Before you strike an arc or grind a weld, it is imperative to know that your Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) is functioning correctly. This simple, lightweight device allows you to verify that your Airplus system is pumping enough clean air to keep positive pressure inside your helmet, keeping dangerous fumes and grinding dust out.

Using the AP-AFI-01 is quick and easy, adding only seconds to your pre-work routine. Simply disconnect the breathing tube from your helmet, insert the flow indicator, and turn on the blower. The visual indicator will immediately tell you if the airflow is safe. This daily check gives you the peace of mind to focus on your craftsmanship, knowing that you are fully protected. Ignoring this step can lead to using a unit with a clogged filter or low battery, which compromises your safety and comfort.

Walter Surface Technologies is known for high-quality industrial solutions, and their safety gear is no exception. This flow indicator is designed to be tossed in your gear bag without breaking, ready for use whenever you need it. Whether you are working in a fabrication shop, on a construction site, or in a confined space, the Air Flow Indicator is a mandatory accessory for any welder using the Airplus system. Don't guess about your safety—verify it every time.
