ARGWELD® INFLATABLE PIPE PURGING SYSTEMS

of pipe to pipe and pipe to fitting requires


inert gas to be used inside the bore to
prevent oxidation and notching of the root
penetration weld bead. The best system
devised for this is the Argweld® inflatable
pipe purging system. It is quick, reliable
and easy to use. The volume to purge is
kept small, resulting in significant savings
in time and inert gas.
The Argweld® Inflatable Pipe Purging
System is based on a simple idea. It
comprises two protected inflatable dams
connected by a spinal tube. The tube
carries the gas to inflate the dams and
the release valve to purge the space
between them.
The system is inserted into the bore

DO IT RIGHT SO YOUR EMPLOYEES
BREATHE CLEAN AIR, YOUR PLANT
STAYS CLEAN, AND YOU SAVE MONEY
MANUFACTURING TODAY.
Many welding manufacturers today
have experienced great challenges with
fume extraction systems for their welding
processes. You live in a world where
Production is King and your income
is based on getting product welded
and delivered. Any air quality system
must be designed to fit seamlessly into
the current production process, and it
cannot hinder workflow. Some of the key
issues that Manufacturers are looking to
address in a ventilation system are:
• Eliminate weld smoke haze in the air.
• Lower maintenance costs.
• Eliminate negative air pressure in the
building.
• Limit costly heating and cooling
expenses.
• Minimize the use of valuable floor
space.
• Decrease employee turnover.
Working closely with manufacturing
companies over the last 20 years has
helped us understand the needs of
a production environment. We have
worked hard to meet these needs, and
to identify and address the key issues
that impact your bottom line. If you use
an exhaust system to achieve clean
air, you are facing two dilemmas – high
energy costs through the loss of heated
or cooled air, and the risk of exceeding
environmental regulations. “Just imagine
trying to heat or cool your home with
the windows open.” The same principle
applies with exhaust systems. You are
forced to constantly heat or cool outside
air. And, when outside temperature is
very low or high, the energy costs literally
go through the roof. You need a system
that can effectively filter the air and return
it to your facility. SAVE ENERGY. SAVE
MONEY.
VENTILATION OPTIONS
With employee health, and plant safety
and cleanliness becoming more of a
priority for the welding industry, the

ventilation industry has grown quickly

SECTION ELEVEN – ANCILLARY EQUIPMENT


and developed a wide range of methods
and products. With such rapid industry
growth, how to clean air in a plant and
what equipment to use to accomplish it
have become a real challenge. Selecting
the right air filtration system is a process
that involves closely evaluating your
welding operation. Embracing this
process can impact your bottom line,
as studies have shown. Maintaining
cleaner facilities leads to fewer accidents,
lower employee turnover, lower health
care costs and a positive impact on
customers who visit the plant.
