Welding uses hazardous voltages and high currents to melt metal as an industrial process. These voltages create a hazardous situation for the welder particularly on weld completion when the OCV (full or reduced) makes electrode holder placement critical. Machines fitted with the zRID have the welding circuit de-energized. The zRID acts to make the machine weld so; it's NOT working when your not working.



zRID's unique control and zero-volt OCV features eliminates the shock hazard when changing electrodes, removes hard-wired switching and control cables as well as uncontrolled arc activation. zRID is unsurpassed in achieving a safe working condition especially in confined spaces and wet operations in an electrically hazardous environment



zRID devices do not produce any full open circuit voltage (OCV), but are designed to switch off existing OCV on welders and give a limited time exposure to OCV like Residential Current Devices (RCD) in power circuits.



The ZRID transmitter does not have to be continuously pressed (compared with traditional mechanical triggers) once an arc has been initiated therefore reducing or eliminating a common syndrome called "Repetitive Syndrome Injury" (R.S.I).
