How to Weld ELASTIMOLD Apparatus Bushings and Bushing Wells
This guide provides suggested recommendations for welding ELASTIMOLD apparatus bushings and bushing wells, focusing on minimizing heat and ensuring proper installation. It covers welding processes, materials, heat sink usage, and critical installation requirements.
Estimated time: 1h 30m
Tools needed:
Inert-gas, tungsten-arc welding (TIG) equipment, Short-arc welding (metal inert-gas, MIG) equipment, Copper heat sinks (water-cooled or non-water-cooled), Thermocouple detectors, Cleaning supplies (e.g., wire brush)
Supplies needed:
No. 308 bare stainless steel wire, Thermally conductive paste, HV insulated cap(s) or connector(s)
- Prepare Apparatus and Ensure Safety
De-energize all apparatus before starting any installation or removal of parts. Inspect all parts for damage, correct rating, and compatibility with mating parts. Remove any protective shipping covers and replace with appropriate HV insulated caps or connectors before submerging or energizing the circuit. Check package contents to ensure they are complete and undamaged. Verify all components for proper fit with cable and/or mating products. Have all required tools at hand and maintain cleanliness throughout the procedure. This product should be installed only by competent personnel trained in good safety practices involving high voltage electrical equipment. Failure to follow these instructions will result in damage to the product and serious or fatal injury.
- Set Up Welding Environment and Heat Sinks
Clean all surfaces (tank, bushing, and bushing well) thoroughly to remove contamination such as paint, grease, etc., as this will extend welding time and raise temperature. Provide venting for heat sinks. Place copper heat sinks to minimize heat flow to the epoxy. Use thermally conductive paste at the face of heat sinks in contact with the flange and cover. Ensure the bottom heat sink is of a larger diameter than the top to allow heat to be absorbed by the bottom sink rather than flow into the tank. Do not thread heat sinks to the bushing or bushing well stud, as expansion due to heat may affect the integrity of these parts. Minimize air currents in the welding area which will disturb the gas atmosphere. Temperatures at critical points near the epoxy must not exceed 225°F (107°C); determine this using thermocouple detectors during heat sink development.
- Perform Welding
Use either inert-gas, tungsten-arc welding (TIG) or short-arc welding (metal inert-gas, MIG) processes, as both are fast and create minimum heat. Use No. 308 bare stainless steel wire with either process. Keep heat to a minimum during welding; the visible heat line should not be greater than 1/8” from the weld and 3/16” from the O.D. of the flange. Minimize forces applied to the heated stud and flange during and after welding. Do not apply torque to the epoxy when making any bus bar connection.
- Complete Installation and Final Checks
If using non-water cooled heat sinks, remove them promptly after welding and air cool the bushing. Do not leave them on too long since heat will flow back into the bushing. Verify that the clearance between the epoxy shank and the mounting hole is 3/16” ± 1/16”. Ensure the enclosure cover thickness does not exceed 1/4”; consult the factory for enclosures that exceed 1/4” thick. Observe critical clearances from the apparatus connection to enclosure stiffeners and adjacent ground planes. Confirm the oil level covering the immersed stud connection is greater than 2 inches. If thermal baking is required for equipment surface finishes, ensure the bake sequence does not exceed 130°F (54°C) or 8 hours to prevent damage to critical sealing aspects of the bushings. During this cure process, the bushing metallic contacts should not be mechanically loaded internally or externally to prevent epoxy distortion.
