APEX® 30S

The APEX® 30S mechanized controller integrates seamlessly with the Power Wave® S500 power source, providing a central connection point for HELIX® M series weld heads and APEX® 3 series pendants. The need for auxiliary components has been minimized, incorporating a gas solenoid and flow sensor within the controller. This has reduced cable clutter and the overall footprint of the configured system. The APEX® 30S is not limited to orbital welding. When combined with a HELIX® M85 or M45 weld head and flat track, the system can be used for welding plates or other structural beams. By keeping the weld head in a fixed position and rotating the pipe, the system can easily be adapted for welding in a 1G position using the weld head to precisely place and control the arc for high-quality welds.

Features

• The APEX® 30S can be multi-purposed for GMAW/FCAW and GTAW welding
• Built as part of a digital platform, it is designed for a longer service life as future welding technologies become available.
• Moving from flat track, plate or other structural beams to an orbital track takes only a simple weld head adjustment
• A gas solenoid and flow sensor within the controller minimizes clutter and reduces the overall footprint of the configured system
