AUTOMATIC FLUID SHUT-OFF VALVE…

is a pressure sensitive device intended to simultaneously interrupt coolant flow and provide an error signal when an associated weld cap is removed or a line is ruptured. Easy 3 Step process for setup


Features

  • Each tip’s flow is carefully and continuously monitored.
  • Check valve in each tip’s flow to prevent excessive leakage. Typical water loss is less than a capful.
  • Sensor switch signal shuts off water in less than 1 second.
  • Electrical override with amber indicator light is a visual reminder and also a mechanical override as backup.
  • Detects water leakage in circuits that are most prone to leakage occurrences: weld caps and gun supply or return hoses.
  • Sensor unit can be mounted locally on robot on densification package or on fence as desired.
  • Shuts off even when tip flow is only small percentage of total robot welding coolant flow.
  • Robust architecture: wide swings in flow and pressure do not cause false trips. Small, rugged and light weight.
  • Will work in systems with low differential pressure
  • Quicker failure response than calorimetric type sensors alone.
  • Low maintenance due to large cavities and no moving parts.
  • Careful hose dressing to minimize hose pressure losses is no longer critical
  • One size fits all applications.
  • Adjustable sensitivity

Typical Applications

  • Robot Resistance Welding
  • PED Welding
  • Resistance Welding Tools
  • Anytime a water or coolant line ruptures they need to be shutoff quickly and automatically.
