• Harris Inert Gas Guards are designed to save shielding gases in two ways:
- by reducing the gas surge when a MIG gun or TIG torch is activated. Because they are
designed to reduce the pressure held in supply hose, gas waste is reduced when the gun or
torch is triggered
- by delivering a controlled flow rate
• Operators will typically set shielding gas flow rates higher than necessary for a welding
operation. Once set by a supervisor, the Inert Gas Guard delivers the precise amount of flow for
the operation, eliminating the needless waste of gas.
| GAS | MAX INLET PRESSURE (bar) | DELIVERY PRESSURE (bar) | INLET | OUTLET |
| ARGON / CO2 | 3.5 | 0.6 -0.9 | 3/8”-BSPM RH | 3/8” BSPF LH |
