Electrical Safety for Operating Industrial Robots and Welding Equipment

Medium-frequency welding systems are used in many production systems. These are generally welding robots that are fitted with the corresponding welding tongs. Simple, efficient monitoring of the system provides information about the fault current, which is meaningful and easy to interpret. This makes operating the system easier for the technical personnel and allows rapid response in the event of a fault.

Bender provides ground-fault protection equipment which works on AC, DC, and mixed AC/DC systems, including systems with power conversion equipment, such as variable frequency drives and inverters. The Bender AC/DC sensitive ground-fault monitoring devices are the leading technology solution. By utilizing Insulation Monitoring devices and Line isolation monitor testers, Bender products promotes ongoing safety and effective fault detection for industrial robots and welding systems.

These devices are built into the electrical distribution system before the weld converter, thus monitoring the weld current circuit for fault currents. This means they protect you reliably against personal injury and damage to machinery. It also offers peace of mind that the operation of industrial robots and welding equipment is being handled safely. With the addition of these devices, you can help protect personnel, protect equipment, and maintain system and process uptime.
