Gas Management System EWR 2 / EWR 2 Net
Up to 60 % Gas Savings!
More economical, more precise and perfectly suitable for the requirements of Industry 4.0!
The EWR 2 systems use a patented function principle with an extremely fast solenoid valve to regulate the gas flow in real-time and in synchronization with the welding current. External factors such as changes in ambient temperatures, changing gas inlet, or counterpressures from the connected cable assembly can be safely compensated. In this way, the EWR 2 guarantees the savings potential and controls the gas flow more precisely than traditional gas control systems.
The individual savings potential with the gas management system EWR 2 can be amazingly high. Make it easy for yourself now and calculate your gas cost savings and CO2 savings at the same time in advance: with the EWR 2 calculator. Just quickly activate access to the calculator and after a few clicks you can see in black and white whether the gas management system EWR 2 or EWR 2 Net from ABICOR BINZEL makes sense for your production.
Advantages that speak for themselves:
- Reduction of gas consumption, therefore reduction in operating costs
- Environmentally friendly; CO2 emission reduced
- Calibrated gas regulation unit
- Active, closed gas control loop by permanent measurement of the gas flow

The devices at a glance
EWR 2
The base for efficient gas management!
1. Button ON/OFF
2. Jack connector
3. Display
4. Gas input
5. Status LED
6. Cross button for device settings
7. Gas output
8. Shunt connection
9. Power supply
All EWR 2 devices have a closed gas control loop at disposal, reducing the deviations between set and actual of gas volume current to a minimum. They are all equipped with an integrated LED display that allow easy overview of the current status and the system parameters. Settings can be done directly with the cross button. Furthermore, the system is equipped with a stereo jack that can be used to connect to a computer with installed ABICOR BINZEL service software.
EWR 2 Net
Easy networking for industry 4.0!
1. Ethernet interface
2. CAN open interface
EWR 2 Net has two additional interfaces and can be flexibly interconnected.
CAN open interface: The system can be connected by an additional gateway with any fieldbus systems and exchange data in real time.
Ethernet interface: Enables the EWR Net to be integrated into local networks in order to be able to access the appliance through these networks with the ABICOR BINZEL service software.
Calculate possible gas savings in advance – with the EWR 2 calculator
Integrate an additional device into the production? Is it really worth it? An EWR 2 or EWR 2 Net gas management system can be integrated into the production process with little effort. You can use the EWR 2 calculator to check in advance whether this really saves gas and reduces CO2 for your welding processes. This calculator determines your current gas consumption and the possible gas savings with EWR 2 or EWR 2 Net and shows the result in a comparison. At the same time, your potential gas cost savings and the CO2 savings per month are determined. You can therefore decide directly whether you would like to test this gas management system from ABICOR BINZEL under the conditions in your production or order it directly from your welding technology distributor. Sign up and you're ready to start!
Important: These gas management systems are worthwhile for robotic welding as well as for manual welding. The results are likewise amazing!

What our customers say
Like any company, we are always striving to reduce costs. [...] Then we found this [EWR 2] system. [...] And we were able to reduce gas consumption by 33 % right after the first run. [...] We are planning to continue with further testing, because we expect to achieve gas savings of up to 50 - 60 %. Furthermore, we also have an important effect for us, since our motto [...] is "For Earth, For Life", that we can thereby reduce CO2 emissions significantly.
EWR 2 Service Software
Make settings on your EWR 2 or EWR 2 Net yourself very easily now – with the new service software.
This service software guides you in easy steps through adjusting the gas flow, gas selection, error messages and settings on the optional relay box. In connection with the EWR 2 Net, the data on welding current and gas flow can be displayed at any time via the network connection.
