Smart Welding Helmet
South Carolina-based ESAB Welding & Cutting Products introduced
the Aristo Tech 5-13 Welding Helmet with Variable Shade ADF.
Designed for the professional welder, the helmet features AutoDarkening
Filter Lens Technology (ADF) and has a variable 5-13
digital control for adjustment of shade level, sensitivity, and
delay. The helmet's Quick Set feature allows for easy change
of shade with a simple up-and-down flick of the switch. The
helmet's grind mode is activated at the lowest sensitivity.
The Aristo Tech 5-13 also comes with ESAB's latest integrated Circuit LENS Technology, which
features an internal LCD display with reliability that is suitable for all manual welding processes and
plasma cutting. The helmet's front cover lens is coated for increased scratch and heat resistance and
is premolded into a convex curve with an optical class 1, which eliminates the threat of duplicate
ghost arcs being visible through the cartridge. (www.esabna.com)
Dust Suppression for Slag or
Ash Handling
The new DustBoss from Dust Control Technology DB-M
is designed for applications in which a fan-driven mist
could generate undesirable turbulence and is well-suited
to operating conditions involving very fine dust particles,
including slag dust or fly ash. The unit generates an
umbrella-shaped cloud of atomized droplets averaging 50
to 200 microns in size and projects the mist about 30 feet
under calm conditions. The powerful misting head is supplied
with nine atomizing nozzles and mounted on a 15-foot
boom. It features selectable flow settings and the company's
proprietary Variable Particle Sizing Technology to improve
capture efficiency. Nozzles can be added, removed, or resized
as the application dictates.
Just 10 psi of water pressure is required from the supply
hose when using the integrated booster pump, giving the
DB-M an output as high as 24 gpm at 200 psi. An in-line 30 mesh filter stops any
solids 600 microns and larger, and the manufacturer recommends that it be used at
all times. The Dust Boss is configured for U.S. markets and uses 3-phase/480 volt/60
hertz power with a full current load of approximately 12 amps. The recommended
minimum generator set is 25 kW. (www.dustboss.com)
New Diesel Generator Sets
Cummins Power Generation announced two new internationally styled and designed
diesel generator set ranges for global markets. Powered by Cummins engines, both are
maintenance-friendly. CE-certification and compliance with international standards make
them ideal for a wide variety of applications, including in remote locations. The new lowrange
40- to 75-kVA generator sets feature the Cummins S3.8 Series engine, already proven
in the field, and a 50-liter fuel tank that delivers 12 hours of performance at 75% load. The
new medium-range 90- to 125-kVA
generator sets (shown here) use
Cummins' 6BTA5.9 Series engine.
They also offer extended fuel
autonomy of over 12 hours thanks
to a larger fuel tank capacity of
350 liters. Both ranges offer many
features, plus options including
sound-attenuating enclosures
and double-walled fuel tanks.
