FLOW METER

The flowmeter shows the flow rate of shielding gas and has a valve to adjust the flow. The flow meter is scaled for CO2, Ar, and CO2/Ar blends. It is not calibrated and is for reference purposes only. The middle of the ball indicates the flow rate of shielding gas.

Adjust the flow rate while depressing the gas purge switch by turning the valve at the bottom of the meter. Most weld procedures require 25-40 scfh (11.8 - 18.9 lpm) for sufficient shielding gas coverage. Gun angle, nozzle diameter, joint configuration and wind condi- tions may effect the amount of shielding gas required.
