The Walter Surface Technologies 48R365 is a specialized replacement hose assembly designed for the Surfox series of electrochemical weld cleaning systems. Measuring 4 meters (approximately 13 feet) in length, this component is critical for the transmission of both the electrolytic cleaning solution and the low-voltage electrical current required for the passivation and cleaning process. It serves as the umbilical link between the main power unit and the application wand, allowing the operator to perform cleaning tasks on stainless steel surfaces effectively.
Engineered for the industrial environment, the hose is manufactured from high-grade, chemical-resistant polymers. This construction is essential to withstand the corrosive nature of the phosphoric acid-based electrolytes typically used in Surfox systems. The outer sheath is designed to be abrasion-resistant, protecting the internal fluid line and electrical conductors from the wear and tear associated with shop floor environments, such as dragging over concrete or contact with sharp metal edges. The fittings are precision-engineered to ensure a leak-free connection at the machine output, maintaining system pressure and preventing hazardous chemical spills.
Replacing a damaged or worn hose is vital for maintaining the safety and efficiency of the weld cleaning operation. A compromised hose can lead to erratic electrical conductivity, resulting in poor cleaning performance or arcing, as well as potential fluid leaks that pose safety risks to the operator. The 48R365 offers a direct OEM fit, ensuring that flow rates and electrical resistance values remain within the manufacturer's specified parameters for optimal Surfox performance. Its extended length also facilitates work on larger assemblies, reducing the need to frequently reposition the power source.
