Compatible with Traditional Construction Method [Bottom to Top]. In this method, a single circumferential seam can be applied using Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) inside or outside the tank. The AGW-1 is suspended from the tank's upper edge. The AGW-1 is compatible with the Tank Jacking Construction Method [Top to Bottom]. In this case, the AGW-1 applies circumferential SAW seams exclusively from the outside of the tank, using a temporary rail support. Input power: 120/240/1P/50/60. If circumferential seams are required to be welded from the inside of the tank, use a Girth Welder Model AGW-1-C (Single Side-Compact). Included: One Lincoln PowerPlus 1000 HD (380/480/3/50/60), one Lincoln Welding Controller, one wire feeder, one wire reel, one flux recovery unit. Not included welding cables. Required: One cable of 120 mm² x 60 m for welding up to 600 amps; two cables for welding up to 800 amps; and, three cables for welding up to 1000 amps.

Notes:

1. The user is solely responsible for certifying WPS & PQR. A professional welding engineer should design [considering the applicable Code and Standards] by selecting the essential welding parameters such as plate beveling, wire and flux specifications, amperes and voltage, welding speed, etc.

2. Rental Facility for Tank Welding Practice

Our company does not provide training; Girth Welders must be operated by an experienced submerged arc welding operator with an updated ticket. A rental facility is available to familiarize yourself with our equipment and obtain the samples needed to qualify for the Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS), Procedure Qualifications Records (PQR), and Welder Qualification Test (WQT).

• The user should provide a steel-base plate with beveling, wire and flux.
• Minimum rental of five business days in an eight-hour shift. Includes: Two AGW-1-C and one SAW Welding Tractor.
• Maximum two operators at a time and one supervisor.
• Booking: Two to four weeks in advance.
• The user is required to provide a certificate of liability insurance.
