Breath-Link Series
Lightweight and High-Performance for Welding Operations

BL-7005

Starting April 2022, for indoor metal welding operations, the use of high-efficiency protective masks appropriate for the measured welding fume concentration will be required. Higher welding fume concentrations will necessitate masks with a higher assigned protection factor.
The BL-7005 is a high-end model suitable for welding operations requiring a protection factor up to 33.

A high-end model has been added to the 1005 series, which is highly popular in the welding industry.

Because it is an upgraded model based on the long-selling 1005 series, users transitioning to a powered air-purifying respirator can do so with confidence. (Sakai Model BL-7005)

The long-selling 1005 series known for ‘ease of use’ has now evolved with higher ‘performance’ and lighter weight.

5 Benefits of Breath-Link

Based on Breath Synchronized Blower System (BSFS) technology, it delivers air during inhalation and stops blowing during exhalation. This reduces fan noise, provides safety and comfort, and lowers operating costs.

1. Lightest PL2 model in the domestic market (approx. 290g)
   With high fan efficiency reducing battery size requirements, the use of a compact battery combined with the facepiece results in a lightweight product that is easy to wear for long periods without feeling heavy.
2. Extended filter life via new fiber structure
   Compared to conventional filters, the new filter provides high collection efficiency (PL2) while allowing for longer continuous usage.
3. Long battery life
   Reduced fan noise operation helps minimize battery consumption.
4. Natural breathing
   Improves breathing dynamics during various tasks and reduces the discomfort of wearing a mask. It provides a natural breathing sensation as if not wearing a mask at least.
5. High safety
   With a positive pressure design, it minimizes the ingress of dust and moisture into the facepiece, thereby increasing protective efficiency.

Other Features

• Use with welding mask: Can be used together with a welding mask and is compatible with welding surfaces.
• Voice: Allows voice transmission inside the mask and enables communication with others.
• Fit check: Enables quick checking of the mask’s seal using the integrated fit-testing kit.
• Notification: Notifies the battery replacement time through an “airflow conditioning” indicator.
• Silicone: Made of durable silicone with high heat resistance, providing comfortable wear.
• Auto on/off: The fan automatically starts when wearing the mask and breathing in, and automatically stops when the mask is removed.

Performance and Specifications

※1: The duration positive internal pressure is maintained under standard national respiratory conditions during normal room operations.
※2: The duration positive internal pressure is maintained in a dusty environment, utilizing respiratory data from actual workers.
