OVERVIEW

Stop Regulator Freeze-Up in Its Tracks

There are few things more frustrating in the shop than having to stop a long weld because your CO2 regulator has turned into a block of ice. When your regulator freezes, your shielding gas flow becomes erratic or stops completely, leading to the welder's nightmare: porosity. The Profax Electric CO2 Heater is the simple, rugged solution to keep your gas flowing smoothly and your welds clean, no matter how fast you are burning wire.

Designed specifically for welders who run straight CO2, this heater installs in seconds. You simply attach it between your gas cylinder and your regulator. Once plugged into a standard 120V outlet, the 100-watt heater kicks in. It warms the gas as it leaves the tank, counteracting the freezing effect that happens when high-pressure CO2 expands. The result? No more ice build-up, no more pressure fluctuations, and no more downtime waiting for your equipment to thaw out.

The unit is thermostatically controlled, meaning you don't have to worry about it getting too hot or constantly adjusting settings. It's a "set it and forget it" tool that works in the background to protect your weld quality. By ensuring a steady flow of shielding gas, you eliminate one of the most common causes of weld defects in CO2 processes.

Beyond just saving your welds, this heater saves your gear. Freezing can damage the internal diaphragms and seats of your expensive regulators and flowmeters. By keeping the temperature stable, the Profax heater extends the life of your gas equipment, saving you money on replacements down the road. Whether you are in a cold garage or a high-production fabrication shop, this heater is a must-have for reliable CO2 welding.

FAQ

CO2 gas cools rapidly when it expands from high pressure to low pressure. This can cause moisture in the air or the gas itself to freeze, blocking the regulator and stopping gas flow. A heater prevents this by warming the gas before expansion.

The heater is installed inline between the CO2 cylinder valve and your regulator or flowmeter.

It requires a standard 120 VAC, 60 Hz power source.

The unit is thermostatically controlled, so it cycles on and off as needed to maintain the proper temperature without overheating.

While primarily designed for pure CO2 which is most prone to freezing, it can be used with other gases if the connections match, but freezing is rarely an issue with Argon mixes.

Yes, by preventing the regulator from freezing and blocking gas flow, it ensures consistent shielding gas coverage, which is the main defense against porosity.

The heater is rated at 100 Watts.

Yes, provided the connections are compatible and it is placed before the pressure reduction stage where freezing occurs.
