The Farwest Electrobraze Cathodic Protection Pin Braze System is designed to simplify cathodic protection {CP) cable connections to a variety of steel structures. The Electrobraze gun and accessories are ideal for CP connections such as negative cables, test station connections, sacrificial anodes, and similar cable connections. In reliable operation for more than 10 years, this product and its technology is now available to the U.S cathodic protection market. At the heart of the Electrobraze system is the ZE7000 pin braze gun. This tool is adaptable to all pin brazing needs, including down-hole applications (with the optional extension lance). With a simplified system and ergonomic design, the Electrobraze Pin Braze System provides reliable connections and reduces operating costs. Several battery pack sizes are available for various levels of field usage. Smaller jobs can be made more convenient with the light-weight battery pack, while more extensive applications may call for one of the larger battery packs.   IMPORTANT:  In order to make a proper pin braze connection, the surface of the structure you will pin braze to MUST BE BRIGHT AND SHINY METAL.  This is also true for the ground connection from the battery to the structure.  Otherwise, the pin braze process will not work properly.

Operator under the supervision of a qualified instructor or be certified by Electrobraze Limited (or an Electrobraze Limited approved agent) and have carried out training during a period of no longer than 12 months prior to commencement of Pin Brazing Operations. Always wear proper PPE include safety goggles or face shield, hearing protection, safety shoes and suitable clothing for grinding and welding work. Do not inspect or clean the tool while the battery power source is connected as accidental arcing can cause serious injury. Ensure battery charging in only done in a dry environment.  Attaching the battery charger in the rain or near standing water presents an electric shock hazard. Read the safety and operation manual provided with the battery charger before use. Do not exceed the rated limits of the equipment or use the tool for applications for which have not been designed. Always utilize genuine Electrobraze Limited components when servicing the equipment or replacing parts Operators must ensure that all prequalification testing has been thoroughly carried out and approved by the specifying authority before the commencement of the use of this equipment and its associated equipment or consumables.  IMPORTANT:  In order to make a proper pin braze connection, the surface of the structure you will pin braze to MUST BE BRIGHT AND SHINY METAL.  This is also true for the ground connection from the battery to the structure.  Otherwise, the pin braze process will not work properly. Integral Earth (Ground) Device for Gun The Electrobraze model IED7000 Integral Earh Device easily connectes to the model ZE7000 Pin Braze Gun.  This accessroy eliminates the need for a separate pipeline earth or ground connection.     The earth/ground extention cable attaches to the rear of this device for connection to a suitable battery pack.  Easily connects and disocnnects to the Brazing gun using the quick-release connectors and "dovetail" rail. Extension Lance The model EXL7000 Extension Lance connects directly to your ZE7000 Pin Brazing Gun to allow the gun to be used for down-hole cable connections.  The lance system features four independently connecting, 1 meter long (39”) sections and an independent remote trigger device. The lance system is provided with a military grade Pelican case. The Extension Lance is designed for use with vacuum excavated holes allowing you to achieve remote pin braze connections from 3 to 13 feet (1 to 4 meters) in depth. Specifications and Features: Lightweight – Weights only 22 lbs. (10 Kg) including case Optional Integral Earth Device (IED7000) bolts directly to the body of your existing ZE7000 Pin Brazing Gun.
