Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT庐 has launched the hand held, battery powered PurgEye庐 200 Weld Purge Monitor庐, which meets the needs of higher welding specifications requiring oxygen levels down to as low as 10 ppm.
The PurgEye庐 200 is waterproof and dustproof rated to IP65 Standard, has warning icons on the large screen to show low battery, low sensor conditions and also displays oxygen readings in percentage or in ppm very accurately down to 10 ppm.
Luke Keane, Distributor Support for HFT庐 said: 鈥淲eld Purge Monitors庐 are an essential instrument to help obtain non-oxidised, zero colour welds by monitoring the oxygen level when welding metals such as titanium, zirconium, nickel alloys and high purity stainless steels where high quality and strong welds are required free from metallurgical imperfections. Even though the PurgEye庐 200 helps to produce these important zero colour joints it is probably the lowest cost Weld Purge Monitor庐 of its kind.鈥
The PurgEye庐 200 contains an internal electro-mechanical pump for drawing samples of purge gas automatically over the sensor before discharging it to the atmosphere.
The long life sensor eliminates the need for changing cells once every year. Alarm signals can be given by the PurgEye庐 200 to show when the oxygen level is within or outside the required ppm range for perfect weld joints.
