By striving for oxygen free welds, companies can eliminate the post weld cleaning costs, which can be very high making the cost of each weld much higher than it needs to be.
It pays to buy the best!
Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT®’s hand held, battery driven PurgEye® 100 IP65, monitors oxygen levels from atmospheric level (20.94%) down to 100 ppm (0.01%).
The PurgEye® 100 is a fully accredited IP65 standard rated instrument that can be used out on site, in rainy and dusty conditions. This model can be used with any Tube or Pipe Weld Purging System, any Welding Chamber or Flexible Welding Enclosure®. Perfect for Oxygen Monitoring.
This advanced model is equipped with a push button ‘auto calibration’ feature, which allows the monitor to be calibrated both at atmospheric level (20.94%) and again at 100 ppm, to ensure the accuracy of oxygen levels for quality results.
The newly designed, extra long life sensor gives the welder significant usage of the monitor until the low sensor indicator appears on the screen. Once that icon appears, it provides adequate time to obtain a new sensor, which can be fitted on site without any complicated electrical wiring to change, thereby saving the operator from having to return it to the manufacturer for recalibration and saving the equivalent of 50% of a new monitor.
The improved one-piece probe assembly is a significant advantage over other models that can leak oxygen, thus distorting readings.
The PurgEye® 100 IP65 has a clear, easy to read LCD screen, offering a 24 mm high display, which is approximately a 41% larger display than the ones used by other instruments. When the Weld Purge Monitor® is not in use, an automatic sleep mode will activate to conserve battery life.
Quick connect / disconnect, leak tight fittings are an advantage for gas purge tubing. A tripod mount is integrated in the housing, to ensure the Weld Purge Monitor® can be located securely in an accessible viewing position without having to resort to additional clamping fixtures.
The PurgEye® 100 IP65 Weld Purge Monitor® is shipped in a new, low volume ergonomically designed, attractive, more robust carry / presentation and storage case to maintain the instrument in good condition and keep it together with all accessories.
Other models available from HFT® include the hand-held PurgEye® 200, a more advanced model, which is very popular for situations needing highly accurate measurements down to 10 ppm.
There are three desk mount models available, including the entry-level PurgEye® Nano, the PurgEye® Desk and the PurgEye® 1000 for accurate measurements down to 10 ppm.
Other HFT® Weld Purging Accessories include Weld Backing Tape™, Weld Trailing Shields® and Flexible Welding Enclosures®.
