MIG GAS SAVER INFORMATION

The Typical MIG Welder Wastes Over 70% of Shielding Gas Used

- See Proof and Why. 

The Blast of Shielding Gas Exiting a MIG Torch at a Weld Start Causes Problems:

1) Significant Shielding Gas Waste

2) Inferior Weld Quality Since Air is  "Pulled" Into The Turbulent Shielding Gas Stream

Our Gas Saver System (GSS) eliminates gas surge problems.

We receive a number of questions about our "Gas Saver System" and shielding gas control in general.  The following are some specific Questions:

1. What is the Ideal Gas Delivery System?

2. Is the Main Reason for Gas Surge Hose Expansion?  No Hose Expansion May Only Cause 13%; See What it is!

3. Why is Enough Extra Gas Needed at MIG Weld Starts?

4. How does Automatic Flow Compensation Work and Why a Minimum of 25 psi Regulator Pressure is Needed to Achieve it?

5. What is the Payback of the Gas Saver System? Note: It is Usually Measured in Weeks However When Adding New Welding Machines, it Could Be Immediate!- -See Payback Calculations and "Just Do It !"

6. Why is My Existing Gas Delivery Hose a Wasteful 1/4 " ID?

7. Why do Simple Orifices Not Work to reduce gas waste?  Why they often give a False Savings Impression!

8. What problems occur if Low Pressure Devices are used?

9. What About Using Orifices To Control Flow at a Pipeline Gas Supply?

10. The Gas Surge Exiting My MIG Nozzle at the Weld Start Only Lasts a Short Time-Why is That A Problem with Weld Quality?
