OVERVIEW

Optimized Flux Management for Submerged Arc Welding

The ESAB Flux Hopper 10L W/Sight Glass (SKU: 0147649881) is a critical component designed to enhance the efficiency and reliability of Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) operations. In high-duty cycle industrial environments, managing consumables effectively is key to maintaining throughput. This hopper provides a substantial 10-liter capacity, significantly reducing the frequency of refills required during extensive welding projects. By holding a larger volume of flux, it supports longer continuous weld beads and reduces the downtime associated with manual refilling.

Engineered with precision by ESAB, a leader in welding automation, this hopper features a robust construction suitable for heavy industrial use. A standout feature is the integrated sight glass. This vertical window allows operators and process engineers to visually monitor the remaining flux level at a glance, eliminating the guesswork and the need to open the container for inspection. This simple yet effective design element helps prevent the hopper from running dry, which could otherwise lead to porosity, arc exposure, and costly weld defects.

This component is designed for seamless integration with ESAB's range of SAW welding heads and tractors. Whether utilized in beam fabrication, pipe mills, or pressure vessel manufacturing, the 0147649881 Flux Hopper ensures a steady and reliable gravity-fed supply of flux to the weld zone. Its design prioritizes both functionality and durability, ensuring it withstands the rigors of the shop floor while protecting the flux from environmental contaminants.

FAQ

This hopper has a capacity of 10 Liters, allowing for extended welding durations between refills.

Yes, it features an integrated sight glass that allows for easy visual inspection of the flux level without opening the lid.

This product is designed specifically for Submerged Arc Welding (SAW).

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB part, ensuring compatibility and quality.

While the hopper holds the flux, flux heating is typically handled by a separate heater accessory or a specific heated hopper model. Check your system's specifications for heating requirements.

The ESAB part number is 0147649881.

The unit is typically supplied as the hopper assembly. Specific mounting brackets may depend on the exact welding tractor or head configuration.

It prevents the hopper from running empty unexpectedly, which would expose the arc and cause weld defects.
