technology-vaporator-lens-technology-with-porex-filter

Patented Vaporator lens technology leads the industry in thermal lens barriers. Utilizing processes previously reserved for aerospace and medical capacities, our lenses are robotically cut and bonded together with an airtight silicone bead to eliminate lens delamination—the number one cause of between-the-lens fogging.

A revolutionary, micro-porous filter called Porex™ completes the system. Its composition is structured such that air molecules may pass through the filter while water molecules cannot. By utilizing this filter, the thermal lens is allowed to adjust to varying altitudes while preventing moisture from entering the space between the lenses. This is the world’s strongest thermal lens barrier.

TURBO FAN VENTILATION
Patented micro-electronic fan in the Turbo Fan Series. Turn the fan on when you get to the hill and in the low setting, the Turbo Fan system will run continuously all day long to exhaust moisture from inside the goggle. The high setting can be used to quickly exhaust moisture in extreme conditions. On the low setting the Turbo Fan system can run continuously for up to 50 hours on one AAA battery.








REGULATOR VENTILATION
Patented Regulator adjustable lens ventilation system in the Spherical and Regulator Series provides added control of airflow through the goggle. Use the open position while stopped in line or on the lift to increase the circulation of dry, fresh air. Close it before descending to prevent tearing.










AIRFLOW VENTILATION
Featured in our Airflow and select Junior Series models, our Airflow lens technology features vents in the brow of the lens that increase the circulation of fresh air to keep the inner lens dry and fog-free. A semi-porous foam filter is positioned behind the vents to prevent snow and moisture from infiltrating the goggle chamber.

technology-thermal-lens

Two single lenses bonded together with a sealed “dead air” space between them create a thermal barrier that keeps the inner lens warm and dry. Like storm windows—but much more comfortable—this process helps prevent fogging by keeping the inner lens above the dew point.

technology-fog-x-lens-treatment

A hydrophilic chemical treatment creates a micro-etched surface on the inner lens to absorb moisture before fog can form. Because Fog-X is a treatment that is actually burned into the lens, it can’t be wiped away like other anti-fog coatings.
