Water saver reduces water on factory floor during welding tip loss

Rocon LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Universal Flow Monitors Inc., has introduced the DeltaPoint® Drawback, a water saver with an added air cylinder for resistance welders that is designed to reduce water on plant floors during cap replacement.

The water saver monitors tip loss by comparing flow in and out of the weld cell, stopping water flow in both directions when a difference in flow is detected or if the overall flow is too low.

A drawback air cylinder holds the water that would otherwise leak onto the shop floor during a cap change event in the cooling water lines. When the drawback cylinder is activated by the water saver, it holds the water in the hose until reset is initiated.
