Weld Head

The Series 20 SWS weld head delivers consistent, precise welds for

outside tubing diameters from 1/2 to 2 in. and 12 to 52 mm and pipe

diameters ranging from 1/4 to 1 1/4 in. and 10.2 to 48.3 mm.

A DC motor in the weld head drives a rotor, which carries the tungsten

electrode around the weld joint. Optical circuitry in the weld head

sends precise feedback to the power supply to control the speed of

the rotor.

All moving parts in the weld head are mounted in low-friction devices

to provide smooth, consistent operation.

A spring-loaded, oating brush continuously contacts approximately

one-third of the circumference of the rotor. This conguration ensures

consistent, uniform electrical conductance to the rotor and electrode.

Fixture Block

The Series 20 SWS xture block accurately aligns and holds tubing,

ttings, and valve bodies. The modular design allows you to select

different side plates and create the conguration needed for the job.

The xture block is separate from the weld head, allowing work pieces

to be easily aligned and xtured before welding. Using multiple xture

blocks can increase productivity.

Each xture block is designed to accommodate a range of work

piece sizes. A Universal Collet Insert (UCI) ts into the xture block to

match the diameter of the work piece. The collet design rmly holds

tubing and ttings that vary ±0.005in. (0,13mm) from nominal outside

diameter. Collets are also available for thin wall pipe. The collets

exchange quickly, making the xture block very adaptable to changing

work requirements.

Unpacking the Weld Head Components

The following weld head components are packaged in a foam-lined

shipping container:

• weldhead

• arcgapgage

• electrodepackage

• toolpackage

Perform the following steps when your Swagelok Series 20 Weld Head

arrives:

1. Inspect the container for damage.

2. Remove the components from the container.

3. Check the items for any damage.

4. Verify that the weld head serial number matches the serial number

on the shipping container.

5. Record the model and serial numbers, and the delivery dates on

the Registration Information page of your power supply user’s

manual.

13-205R4.indb 4 2/1/13 2:43 PM

Series 20 Weld Head User’s Manual 5

Installing the Weld Head

The weld head has four connectors that plug into the power supply.

The four connectors on the cable are:

• weldhead

• electrode(red)

• work(green)

• weldheadshieldinggas

Connect the four connectors to the side panel of the power supply by

performing the following steps (see Figure 4):

1. Locate the weld head.

2. Align the notch on the one-quarter turn connector with the small

tab in the mating socket on the side panel labeled WELD HEAD.

Insert the connector in the socket. Turn the connector sleeve

clockwise by hand until it is tight. This connection provides the

control signals to drive the weld head.

3. Insert and fully seat the red connector into the socket on the side

panel labeled ELECTRODE. Twist the connector 1/4-turn clockwise

to lock it into place. This connection is the negative (-) terminal of

the weld head.

4. Insert the green connector into the socket on the side panel

labeled WORK. Twist the connector 1/4-turn clockwise to lock it

into place. This connection is the positive (+) terminal of the weld

head.

5. Insert the weld head shielding gas connector into the Swagelok

Quick-Connect stem labeled TO WELD HEAD. Ensure that the

connector is rmly attached. This connection provides shielding

gas to the weld head through a mass ow controller (MFC) in the

power supply.

Figure 4 Weld Head Connectors

Caution!

Ensure that the weld head

connector is fully seated in the

mating socket and the threaded

sleeve is tight.

Note:

The weld head shielding gas connector must

be a single-end shut-off (SESO) Swagelok

Quick-Connect stem (SS-QC4-S-400).

This Swagelok weld head comes with a selection of electrodes.

The following instructions show how to properly install an electrode

in the weld head.

Selecting the Proper Electrode

Electrode length and diameter depend on your weld head model

and the outside diameter of the work piece being welded.

Electrode Geometry

This illustration shows the electrode shape Swagelok suggests.

Properly ground electrodes provide consistent, repeatable welds.

Pre-ground electrodes are available from your Swagelok

representative. See your parts list for ordering information.

The electrode part numbers are assigned as follows:

CWS – X.### - #.### - P

The ceriated electrode material type is a mixture of 98 % tungsten

and 2 % cerium and is commonly referred to as “2% ceriated.” This

electrode type has demonstrated improved arc starting performance

over the 2 % thoriated type, particularly when using puried shielding

gas.

Calculating Arc Gap Gage Settings

To determine the arc gap gage setting for a specic arc gap, use the

formula below.

A = largest OD on the weld end of the tubing or ﬁtting (welding diameter).

B = Arc gap gage diameter

C = desired arc gap

largest outside diameter

Arc gap gage diameter B = 3.118 in.

Desired arc gap C = 0.025 in.

1.000 in. + 3.118 + 0.025 in. = 2.084 in.

Figure 8 Setting the Arc Gap Gage

Setting the Arc Gap

The proper arc gap setting facilitates control of the weld and improves

consistency. The following steps cover how to set the arc gap.

The arc gap is set by using the arc gap gage provided with the weld

head. The gage is adjusted for the desired arc gap and then installed

in the rotor. With the gage in place, the electrode can be positioned

with reasonable accuracy.

Setting the Arc Gap Gage

1. Measure the outside diameters of the work pieces being welded

using a caliper or micrometer. See Figure 8(A). The M200 will

calculate the arc gap gage setting automatically when using the

Auto Create feature.

2. Refer to the tables on page 10 for your nominal OD. Find the

“actual” outside diameter nearest to your measurement.

3. Adjust the arc gap gage to match the setting from the tables on

page 10. See Figure 8(B).

Inserting the Electrode into a Rotor

1. Without the xture block attached, press ELECTRODE CHANGE

on the operator panel. The electrode will move to the position

shown in Figure 9.

2. Loosen the two electrode clamping screws. If you are replacing the

electrode, remove the electrode.

3. Insert the new electrode, with the sharp tip pointing out. Tighten

the electrode clamping screws slightly to hold it in place

temporarily.

4. Set the proper arc gap with the arc gap gage.

Caution!

Do not jog or move the rotor unless

the electrode is clamped in place.

Preparing the Work

It is important to prepare the tube pieces properly before welding.

Refer to Figure 11.

Tubing must be square and burr-free to ensure repeatable, high-

quality autogenous fusion welds. Cut the tubing to length with a

hacksaw or tube cutter. Face the tube ends with a lathe or a portable

facing tool. Deburr the ends, making sure that both the inside and

outside diameters are square and burr-free. Clean the tube ends using

an appropriate solvent.

Minimize the chance of a poor quality weld by following these

guidelines:

• Tubeendsmustbesquare.

• Tubeendsmustnothaveawallthicknessvariationexceeding±

15 % of nominal.

• Tubeendsmustbeburr-free.

centering gage is positioned correctly for either the thick or thin

side plate. See Figure 14.

2. Butt one work piece against the centering gage. See Figure15(A).

3. Lock down the top side plate. See Figure 15(B).

4. Remove the centering gage.

5. Butt the second work piece against the rst work piece, and lock

down the top side plate. See Figure 16.

6. Inspect 360° around the weld joint for t and alignment. If the

alignment is not correct proceed to the next section.

Adjusting the Tube-to-Tube Fixture Block

In order to maintain precise alignment of the work pieces in the xture

block, the side plates must be periodically aligned.

To align the xture block, follow these steps:

1. Turn the xture block over and locate the directional arrows on the

plenum. The arrows point to the appropriate side plate. See Figure

17.

2. Loosen the two alignment knobs just enough to loosen the side

plate from the plenum. See Figure 17.

3. Turn the xture block upright and release both levers and open

both sides of the xture block.

4. Place a straight length of tubing (minimum length 1.50 in [38,1 mm])

in the collets such that it rests across both side plates.

5. Close and lock the side plate that is not adjustable. See Figure 18.

6. Lock down the top of the loosened side plate.

7. Tighten the alignment knobs. Take care to tighten the knobs evenly

to prevent the side plate from slipping.

8. Open the side plates and remove the tubing.
