Tecmen FreFlow V1 / V3 PAPR

Verified against primary source · 2026-07-06 current

Tecmen's Chinese-made PAPR blower line, sold combined with a range of Tecmen auto-darkening welding helmets and hoods. Per Tecmen's official product pages, the blower delivers 170+ lpm (low) / 210+ lpm (high) airflow, a rechargeable Li-ion battery rated for 9 hours at low speed (5-6 hours at high speed) with a 1-hour charge time and at least 500 charge cycles, and an overall filter efficiency >99.997%. One official combo page (FreFlow V1 with 100LW helmet) lists the system approval as "EN12941 TH3". Tecmen's own site does not publish a spares/part-number catalogue; all filter/battery/charger SKUs on this site are sourced from independent Tecmen distributors (UK/EU/AU/CA) and are therefore audit-supported, not verified, at the part-record level.

Generationen- und Teilenummernhinweis: Tecmen's own site nomenclature is confusing and worth flagging for future editors: the "FreFlow V3" product page (tecmen.com/FreFlow-V3) is actually the same "FreFlow V1" blower unit (part 22-60-01) paired with a newer 900FP-V / ADF950S auto-darkening helmet that adds a built-in grinding window — the page's own spec table literally labels the blower row "FreFlow V1 blower unit" even on the V3 product page. "FreFlow V1 PRO" is a distinct, further-upgraded blower generation (adds NFC filter monitoring and a revised HMI) sold combined with TM-H1/H2/H3 respiratory hoods and G10/G20-V hard-hat face shields. All variants share the same filter/battery/charger consumable part numbers per distributor listings.

Hinweise

Distributor pages (advancedweldingsupplies.com, tbws.co.uk, UK; nationalwelding.com.au, aclconnect.com.au, btweld.com.au, AU; weld-ready.com, CA; valtec-shop.com, rammultiinvest.no, EU) additionally claim NIOSH 42 CFR 84 and AS/NZS 1716 approvals for the FreFlow line, but no official Tecmen page or approval document confirming those two standards was found during this pass — treat NIOSH/AS-NZS claims as needs-verification until a primary approval document or NIOSH TN/label is located. Only the EN12941 TH3 claim above is verified against an official Tecmen page.

Confirms airflow (170+lpm low / 210+lpm high), Li-ion battery (9h at 170lpm, 5-6h at 210lpm, 1h charge, ≥500 charge cycles), filter efficiency ">99.997%", weight 1020g, operating range -10C to 55C. States user may "choose P3 / gas / odor filter according to different applications." (The 165+lpm/5.8+cfm minimum-design-flow figure is not on this page — it is confirmed separately on the FreFlow-V3 and product/131 pages cited below.) 2026-07-06
[02] www.tecmen.com manufacturer page Official Tecmen FreFlow V3 product page. Spec table row is headed "FreFlow V1 blower unit" with identical airflow/battery/filter specs to the FreFlow V1 page, and additionally states "Manufacturer's minimum design flow rate: 165+lpm (5.8+cfm)" (confirms V3 = same blower, new 900FP-V/ADF950S helmet with built-in grinding window, optical class 1/1/1/1, 4 arc sensors, DIN4.0 light state / DIN5-8/9-13 dark state). 2026-07-06

Confirms identical blower spec block (170+/210+lpm, >99.997% filter efficiency, 9h/5-6h battery) as the V1 and V3 pages, and also states "Manufacturer's minimum design flow rate: 165+lpm (5.8+cfm)". 2026-07-06
