ACTIVSTONE Solves 3 Common Types of Sensor Failures:
Note in the above image that the gray ACTIVSTONE part of the sensor has resisted the significant barrage of molten weld spatter in 3 ways:
- Threads are clear of molten weld spatter
- The rim has no fused BBs
- The face is clear, with coating intact
No look at this other brand coated sensor below - although it was subjected to way less harsh welding environment, yet the coating has broken down, allowing molten weld spatter to fuse:
Here are the 3 ways this sensor coating broke down:
Preventing weld spatter from fusing to these common failure points gives the WSI series of Weld Dynamix sensors a longer service life, with less maintenance attention overall.
