The PFBG-02 (BB2) battery-powered pin brazing
machine suitable for larger maintenance or installation jobs, yet
one person can easily carry the equipment. Weight with batteries is 50
lbs (22.8 kg).
Battery charge capacity is approximately 50
brazes with the smallest type of brazing pin. Batteries can be charged
during transportation between workplaces by means of a battery charger
mounted in a vehicle. When alternating between charging and brazing, it
is possible to increase effective battery capacity up to 5 times during
a working day. The batteries are sealed to prevent acid spill.
The control panel of the unit allows manual
settings F, B and G, which correspond to an adjustment prefix stated on
the package label of the brazing pin. The brazing process is electronic,
therefore no fuse wire is required. It is however possible to use
brazing pins with a fuse wire.
Smaller
and more portable brazing units are available for users
requiring smaller numbers of brazes on site.
