Cart transports welding equipment safely
To ensure the safe transport for Rehm's portable Tiger TIG inverter family of welding equipment, the company has introduced the 'Tiger Cart', which includes a locker for storage of ancillaries.
A compact 380x300x900mm and weighing 15kg - or 20kg with a full coolant tank - the unit is particularly light and mobile.
Welding machine and water cooler form one mobile unit and can be transported easily and handily.
The RWK 1000 delivers a cooling capacity of 1kW at 20 deg C and transports about 1,4 litres of coolant per minute through the torch.
RWK 1000 is equipped with a processor which monitors the temperature and flow rate of the coolant as well as the current consumption.
The RWK 1000 is equipped with a purpose oriented pump and fan switching.
An optionally available automatic function switches the fan and pump on whenever welding is being carried out or the coolant temperature rises above 30 deg C.
The unit can, however, be switched on and off manually.
Recognition of welding is made through the socket current and a special flow-meter checks the water circulation.
The temperature is measured by a sensor on the tank.
The uncomplicated control of the water cooler takes place through the LED display.
A warning buzzer sounds is given should the temperature become too high or if inadequate coolant flow is measured.
