- Simple to Use Thermocouple Welder
- Weld Wires as Small as 40AWG
- Designed for the Production of Commercial Grade Thermocouple Junctions
- Also Suitable for Other Fine Wire Work
- Front Panel or Footswitch Operation
- Argon Gas Shield Facility
The L60 Thermocouple Welder & Fine Wire Welder, is a production grade, simple-to-use instrument designed for thermocouple and fine wire welding.
It is primarily designed for use by sensor manufacturers to produce commercial grade thermocouple junctions; it is ideal for producing large numbers of exposed junction thermocouples for test and development laboratories. The L60 Thermocouple Welder is also ideally suited to transducer and RTD extension lead attachment.
Use of the Thermocouple Welder does not require special skills and most operatives will be capable of producing quality work with little practice. The instrument is supplied with a full range of user accessories including a foot switch.
The L60 is suitable for use with wires of up as large as 18AWG and as small as 40 AWG. An argon gas shield facility is included but a satisfactory thermocouple junction is produced without the need for argon gas. The output energy of the L60 Thermocouple Welder can be varied up to 60 Joules.
Supplied complete with the following accessories:
- Wire Holding Pliers
- Safety Glasses
- Magnifying Eyeglass
- Argon Hose
- 2 x Carbon Electrodes
- Spare 2A Fuse & Mains Lead
- Footswitch

Front Panel Controls
| A – ARC |
Argon gas and weld current controlled by the “Weld” switch. LED indication. |
| B – PURGE |
Allows the gas line and electrode shield to be purged of air prior to a new welding period. |
| C - WELD SWITCH |
Initiates a welding operation (in “arc” mode also opens the Argon valve). |
| D - ARGON LED |
Indicates when the Argon control valve is open and gas is flowing. |
| E - WAIT LED |
Glows when weld charge is building. |
| F - READY LED | “Ready to Weld” indication. |
| G - POWER |
Rotary control of the capacitor charge voltage. |
| H - LEVEL SELECTOR |
Selects the total capacitance available giving the following values with LED indication - "LO" = 0 to 6 Joules "MED" = 0 to 28 Joules "HI" = 0 to 64 Joules |
| I - ELECTRODE HOLDER |
Rotary control of the capacitor charge voltage. |
