Wrap up and jacket weld cell sensor cables

A Balluff UK product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Jul 3, 2008

To prevent sensor cable failures in welding cells a silicone cable jacket and silicone self-bonding wrap provide a new measure of protection and long life.

Weld cells are a hot and abusive environment where sensor cable failure can be a daily occurrence.

Balluff UK said the life of sensor cables and other equipment can be extended by using Balluff's Weld Repel line of accessories.

Weld Repel Jacket, Wrap and Sheets will provide comprehensive protection for vulnerable weld cell components, said Balluff.

Balluff's Weld Repel silicone cable jacket and silicone self-bonding wrap provide protection and long life to control products when used in weld cells.

Heat and slag build up cause sensors, cables, and connectors to prematurely fail in the weld cell environment.

New Weld Repel silicone tubular jacketing and silicone self-bonding wrap sheds slag and protects cabling from up to 500 deg F of ambient heat.

Weld Repel products increase control survivability to months rather than hours or days, while decreasing the need for productivity wasting maintenance stoppages and increasing the quality of welded products and the welds themselves.
