0809914884 - ESAB FFRS Super Flux Recovery System with TEDAC and Heaters

Advanced Flux Management for Submerged Arc Welding

The ESAB FFRS Super (0809914884) is a high-performance Flux Feed and Recovery System engineered for heavy-duty Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) operations. Designed to integrate seamlessly with ESAB's automatic welding tractors, such as the A2 and A6 series, this unit ensures a continuous and efficient supply of welding flux while minimizing waste.

One of the critical challenges in SAW is maintaining the integrity of the flux. The FFRS Super addresses this with integrated heaters within the hopper assembly. These heaters actively prevent moisture absorption—a common cause of hydrogen cracking and porosity in welds—ensuring that the flux remains dry and at optimal temperature for high-quality deposition. This feature is particularly vital in humid environments or for critical structural welding applications where low hydrogen content is mandatory.

The system is equipped with a TEDAC (Tool for Electronic Digital Arc Control) interface. This allows for sophisticated communication between the recovery system and the welding controller, ensuring synchronized operation. By automating the recovery of unfused flux, the FFRS Super significantly reduces consumable costs and manual labor associated with refilling hoppers, making it an essential component for high-productivity industrial welding environments.
