    Why is my Tanox ADF-206S filter switching or flicking?

      Nicholas JonesAug 3, 2025
      If your Tanox Motorcycle Accessories filter switches to dark and then light again while there's still an arc, the sensitivity might be off, or something is blocking the light to the sensors. Here's what to do: 1. Increase the sensitivity level. 2. Move the filter closer to the arc, ideally 1-2 feet away. 3. Ensure the filter points directly at the arc and the sensors aren't blocked by anything, including your arm or welding equipment. 4. Make sure the cover lens is clean.

      If your Tanox Motorcycle Accessories filter stays dark even after the arc is gone, it could be due to ambient light or sunlight interfering with the sensor. To fix this, turn the filter away from the light source, briefly pass your hand in front of the sensors, and fine-tune the sensitivity to a lower level.

      If your Tanox Motorcycle Accessories filter isn't darkening when welding, there are a few potential causes: * A dirty cover lens may be obstructing light to the sensors. Clean or replace the cover lens and clean the sensors. * The sensor angle to the light source may be too wide. Position the filter so the sensors directly face the arc. * Airborne contaminants like smoke might prevent the sensors from receiving enough light. Ensure adequate ventilation in your workspace.

      If sections of your Tanox Motorcycle Accessories filter aren't darkening and there are distinct lines between light and dark areas, the ADF filter may be cracked. Stop welding immediately and replace the filter.
