OVERVIEW

Optimized Conductivity for Electrochemical Passivation

The Walter 48R283 Ground Cable is a critical component designed specifically for the SURFOX line of electrochemical weld cleaning systems. In the electrochemical cleaning process, the integrity of the electrical circuit is paramount; any resistance or interruption in the ground connection can lead to inconsistent cleaning results, arcing, or incomplete passivation of stainless steel surfaces. This assembly is engineered to provide a stable, low-resistance path for the cleaning current, ensuring that the SURFOX unit delivers its full cleaning potential directly to the workpiece.

Measuring 4 meters (approximately 13 feet) in length, this cable offers significant operational flexibility, allowing operators to maneuver around large assemblies and tanks without constantly repositioning the base unit. The cable features high-quality copper stranding protected by a durable, chemical-resistant jacket designed to withstand the harsh environment of industrial metal finishing. The insulation is formulated to resist degradation from exposure to acidic cleaning electrolytes and general workshop abrasion.

The assembly includes a heavy-duty ground clamp optimized for gripping various material thicknesses securely. A solid mechanical connection is essential to prevent micro-arcing, which can damage the surface finish of the workpiece. The machine-side connector is precision-molded to fit Walter SURFOX terminals, ensuring a safe and quick connection. For facilities utilizing SURFOX 104, 204, or 205 units, maintaining a high-quality ground cable like the 48R283 is essential for upholding ISO standards for corrosion resistance and surface finish quality.

FAQ

The 48R283 is designed for Walter SURFOX electrochemical cleaning systems, including the SURFOX 104, 204, and 205 models. It features the specific connector required for these units.

The cable is 4 meters long, which is approximately 13 feet. This length provides good reach for working on larger assemblies.

Yes, this is a complete assembly that includes the cable, the machine-side connector, and the heavy-duty ground clamp attached to the other end.

Electrochemical cleaning relies on a precise low-voltage circuit. The 48R283 ensures low resistance and proper connectivity, preventing arcing that could damage the stainless steel surface.

While minor clamp repairs might be possible, if the cable insulation is compromised or the copper strands are broken internally, replacement is recommended to ensure safety and consistent cleaning power.

Yes, the cable jacket is designed to be resistant to the acidic electrolytes used in the SURFOX process, as well as general shop oils and abrasion.

Sparking usually indicates a poor connection. If your current clamp is worn out, loose, or dirty, replacing it with this new assembly should eliminate the arcing and restore smooth operation.

The cable is rated to handle the maximum output of the SURFOX series machines, ensuring it does not overheat during prolonged cleaning cycles.
