Aquasol I-Purge Modular Inflatable Bladder System 457mm
Introducing the Aquasol I-Purge Modular Inflatable Bladder System, the revolutionary solution for achieving high-quality welds while minimising purge gas consumption and saving you time and money. This innovative system utilises a series of inflatable bladders to create an airtight seal within pipes, effectively isolating the welding zone from oxygen and other contaminants.
Benefits
Achieve consistently high-quality welds with minimal oxidation
Reduce purge gas consumption and save money
Improve welding efficiency and productivity
Minimise downtime and maximise uptime
Enhance safety by reducing exposure to hazardous gases
Features
Modular design allows for easy customization to fit pipes of various sizes and configurations
Durable, high-temperature construction withstands the rigors of industrial welding applications
Inflatable bladders ensure a tight seal, minimising purge gas consumption and maximizing weld quality
Lightweight and portable design facilitates easy transport and setup
Reusable construction offers long-lasting value and reduces environmental impact
Application
Purging pipes and vessels prior to welding
Isolating valves and tanks for maintenance and inspection
Sealing pipe systems for cleaning and testing
Protecting pipes from corrosion and contamination
Instructions
1. Ensure I-Purge is fully assembled (i. e modules are securely connected to harness using quick connect fittings) .
2. If necessary, connect rope, chain, or wire to the pull loops on the ends of the bladder modules. This will allow easy insertion and removal of the system.
3. Connect inert gas lines to the BLUE and BLACK hoses. BLUE gas hose is required to inflate the purge bladders. BLACK gas hose is optional to expedite the purging process.
4. Position the purge unit in the pipe using the luminescent indicator as a guide to center the system across the root gap.
5. Turn the gas supply on to inflate the bladders and purge the weld zone. Recommended Flow Rates for Purging: BLUE gas hose should transfer inert gas at 10-32 SCFH (5-15 LPM) for models 2? 34? and 60 SCFH (28. 5 LPM) for models 36? 48?
6. Once a tight seal has been achieved, commence welding while maintaining flow rate. Recommended Flow Rates During Welding: BLUE gas hose should transfer inert gas at 15-30 SCFH (7. 5-15 LPM)
7. After the weld is complete, turn off the gas supply to deflate the bladders. Once the heat zone has sufficiently cooled, remove I-Purge from the pipe. Be sure to disconnect all gas lines and monitoring equipment.
8. Clean I-Purge and store in the provided carrying bag when it is not in use.
