Standard Conduit
ERC® & ERC-HD®
ERC® & ERC-HD® CONDUIT:
Electron Beam’s ERC® (Extended Reach Conduit) and ERC-HD® (Heavy-Duty) Conduits are both designed for extended run lengths. They resist wear and reduce feed pressure due to their limited bending. Ideal for stationary applications, they will not stretch or compress, and are electrically insulated.
CAPABILITIES/SPECIFICATIONS:
With an abrasive saw, the conduit may be cut to any length desired and field terminated with the respective ERC® or ERC-HD® Connector.
ERC® Conduit:
Recommended for delivery of solid welding electrodes up to 3/32” (2.4mm) diameter or cored wires up to 5/64” (2.0mm). To maintain quality performance, it is not recommended to bend ERC® Conduit to less than a 12” (30.5cm) radius. Flexing of the conduit should be limited.
 
ERC-HD® Conduit:
Recommended for delivery of solid welding electrodes up to 1/8” (3.2mm) diameter, or cored wires up to 7/64” (2.8mm). To maintain quality performance, it is not recommended to bend ERC-HD® Conduit to less than a 18” (45.7cm) radius.

ERC-HD® Connector
ERC® and ERC-HD® Connectors:
To be used with their respective conduit. Consists of a reusable Compression Nut, hardened Ferrule, and Connector Body. To install, slip the assembly fully over the conduit and tighten the compression nut to retain the connector to the conduit. These connections terminate in a male 1/2” NPT pipe thread, popular with many pay-off arms. Add the ERC® Bayonet to the assembly to convert the connector to a “quick connect”.

ERC® Bayonet:
Use with the ERC® Connector or ERC-HD® Connector to provide a quick connection to all Adaptor Kits and Connectors. To install, simply slide the bayonet into the connector prior to installing the connector onto the conduit.

Flat Wire Monocoil Core
 
FLAT WIRE MONOCOIL CORE:
The flat wire monocoil core is precision wound from long-lasting, high carbon, hardened steel spring wire for a longer, productive life. Manufactured to larger I.D. clearances which is especially useful in reducing wire drag.
POLYETHYLENE INSULATING JACKET:
The thick wall extruded polyethylene jacket reinforces the wire monocoil while limiting bending and resisting “snaking” conditions caused by electrode cast. Superior wire transfer is accomplished due to this reinforcement over long distances with minimal bends.

OPTIONS:
   
 
Strain Relief (Uninstalled)
Strain Relief (installed)
 
 
Add a Strain Relief and QCI Insulator:
 
 

A Strain Relief reinforces heavily flexed areas of the conduit and terminations where repetitive flexing may be an issue. Strain Relief may be factory installed or added during your installation and is available in a 1-3/32” (27.7mm) I.D. x 12” (0.3m) and 48” (1.21m) lengths.

 
 
 
QCI Insulator (uninstalled)
 
  Slide the QCI Insulator over any exposed metal connection to reduce the possibility of short circuits and shock hazards.
