Regulator, ESAB OPTIFLOW

ESAB India Limited offers OptiflowTM Regulator for an exciting mix of economy and performance. This is of quality that saves money, as shielding gas per metre of weld costs as much as the wire. Optiflow is a unique regulator that helps reduce the shielding gas consumption by up to 50%. With traditional regulators, a large amount of gas is lost at the start of every welding run. Optiflow has an optimum start flow that is just a quarter of a traditional regulator. The unique two-stage reduction valve has been developed for qualified shielding gas welding. The extremely pressure sensitive second stage greatly reduces the gas surge that normally occurs at start-up. This saves up to 50% gas with normal welding. The even start flow provides a higher quality weld since one avoids the turbulence that can disturb the welding process. The risk of pores in the welded joint is minimised. Optiflow is also available in a lockable version for exact gas flow. Using Optiflow, one can produce 50% more welded joints with the same amount of gas. This has economic effects for the environment as well, with a reduction in the need for gas transport.
