THE new HOT JET 302A and HOT JET 500A welders from Leister are described as ‘the most compact welding tools with advanced technology that save up to 25% of working time in detail work’.
Says the company: ‘The welding tools feature a compact, slim, and lightweight design – 30% shorter, 45% lighter, and 20% thinner than comparable models. This streamlined, ergonomic design makes it easy to reach tight spaces while boosting efficiency -reducing time and labour costs by up to 25% through increased output, less fatigue, and improved operator comfort.’
Continues the company: ‘The new ‘Dual Closed-Loop’ controls on the HOT JET 302A and HOT JET 500A provides simultaneous regulation of the air temperature and the airflow rate, optimising welding performance for consistent, repeatable welding quality regardless of environmental changes. The adaptive torque motor offers smart load adaptation for fast, responsive motor performance while the fan is protected from damage by the active load limitation.’
The HOT JET 302A and HOT JET 500A welders are designed for simple operation and easy configuration, featuring built-in safety protections that prevent accidental starts and automatically power down after a defined cooldown period to maximise safety and help protect materials and infrastructure from damage, adds the company.
‘The intelligent Eco function is a configurable, sensor-activated energy-saving feature that delivers reliable and predictable energy savings.
‘The maintenance-free LEISTER brushless motor and five-year warranty gives extended runtime and increased efficiency while significantly reducing repair costs by up to 40%. Additionally, the HOT JET 500 A is fully compatible with all TRIAC AT/ST nozzles – use the HOT JET 500 A for detail work and hard-to-reach areas and in conjunction with the TRIAC welder to give greater flexibility across applications. The HOT JET 302 A is fully compatible with all HOT JET S nozzles.
‘The new HOT JET 500A is the ideal tool for delivering durability, precision and reliability in detailed flooring installations and repair work, particularly in confined or hard-to-reach spaces.’
Developed by Leister, the HOT JET 302 A and HOT JET 500A are supplied to the UK by Welwyn Tool Group. Welwyn supplies the full range of Leister plastic welding and industrial process heat equipment and offers ‘highly competent technical support by their team of dedicated engineers’.
