PurgEye Site: With the ever increasing list of challenges posed by welding on-site, Weld Purging Experts Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®’s innovative PurgEye® Site means quality doesn’t have to be affected when welding in difficult conditions.
Here are some of our frequently asked questions...
Q.What is the intended application for the Argweld® PurgEye® Site Weld Purge Monitor®?
A. The PurgEye Site has been developed for use in extreme conditions such as might be found on a construction site. It is build into a robust, virtually indestructible case.
For extreme weld quality control in aerospace, semiconductor, pharmaceutical, vacuum, biotech, food and drinks industries, petrochemical, oil and gas and all industries where pristine oxide free welds have to be achieved.
Also, applications demanding extremely accurate readings from atmosphere right down to 10 parts per million (ppm), such as welds made in titanium, duplex, nickel alloys and high specification stainless steels.
Q. What sort of sensor is used in the Argweld® PurgEye® Site?
A. The PurgEye® Site uses a solid state long life sensor of a unique design with a faster response time and greater stability of readings than other monitors.
Q. How safe is the monitor if I use it in rain or dust storms?
A. The case when sealed offers IP68 protection and when open it has IP65 protection.
Q. Can Weld Purge Monitors® only be used when purging with argon?
A. The PurgEye® Weld Purge Monitors® measure the oxygen level within any gas, not only inert gases. They can be used to monitor the oxygen level when using inert gases such as argon and helium and also non-inert gases including nitrogen and nitrogen/hydrogen mixes.
Q. What is PurgeNet™?
A. PurgeNet™controls the welding power sources such as orbital welders and any other automatic welding systems to switch on and off according to oxygen levels, transferring data easily with the ability to link to external devices, such as PurgeAlarm™ Visual Alarm Indicator, a traffic light style column to convey the alarm status of your PurgEye® Weld Purge Monitor®.
