Description

Introducing the Aquasol I-Purge Modular Inflatable Bladder System, the revolutionary solution for achieving high-quality welds while minimising purge gas consumption and saving you time and money. This innovative system utilises a series of inflatable bladders to create an airtight seal within pipes, effectively isolating the welding zone from oxygen and other contaminants.

Features

  • Modular design allows for easy customisation to fit pipes of various sizes and configurations
  • Durable, high-temperature construction withstands the rigors of industrial welding applications
  • Inflatable bladders ensure a tight seal, minimising purge gas consumption and maximising weld quality
  • Lightweight and portable design facilitates easy transport and setup
  • Reusable construction offers long-lasting value and reduces environmental impact

Application

  • Purging pipes and vessels prior to welding
  • Isolating valves and tanks for maintenance and inspection
  • Sealing pipe systems for cleaning and testing
  • Protecting pipes from corrosion and contamination

Instructions

  1. Ensure I-Purge is fully assembled (i.e modules are securely connected to harness using quick connect fittings).
  2. If necessary, connect rope, chain, or wire to the pull loops on the ends of the bladder modules. This will allow easy insertion and removal of the system.
  3. Connect inert gas lines to the BLUE and BLACK hoses. BLUE gas hose is required to inflate the purge bladders. BLACK gas hose is optional to expedite the purging process.
  4. Position the purge unit in the pipe using the luminescent indicator as a guide to center the system across the root gap.
  5. Turn the gas supply on to inflate the bladders and purge the weld zone. Recommended Flow Rates for Purging: BLUE gas hose should transfer inert gas at 10-32 SCFH (5-15 LPM) for models 2″ – 34″ and 60 SCFH (28.5 LPM) for models 36″– 48″
  6. Once a tight seal has been achieved, commence welding while maintaining flow rate. Recommended Flow Rates During Welding: BLUE gas hose should transfer inert gas at 15-30 SCFH (7.5-15 LPM)
  7. After the weld is complete, turn off the gas supply to deflate the bladders. Once the heat zone has sufficiently cooled, remove I-Purge from the pipe. Be sure to disconnect all gas lines and monitoring equipment.
  8. Clean I-Purge and store in the provided carrying bag when it is not in use.
