OPERATION

5.1 Overview
General safety regulations for handling the equipment can be found in the “SAFETY” chapter of this manual. Read it through before you start using the equipment!
NOTE!
When moving the equipment use intended handle. Never pull the cables.
WARNING!
Electric shock! Do not touch the workpiece or the welding head during operation!

2. Positive welding terminal
3. Negative welding terminal
4. Power cable| 5. Mains power supply switch, I/O
6. Remote socket
7. Gas supply output
8. Gas supply input
---|---

5.3 Connecting welding and return cables
The power source has two outputs, a positive welding terminal (+) and a negative welding terminal (-), for connecting welding and return cables. The output to which the welding cable is connected depends on the welding method or type of electrode used.
Connect the return cable to the other output on the power source. Secure the return cable’s contact clamp to the workpiece, and make sure that there is a good contact between the workpiece and the output for the return cable on the power source.

• For TIG welding, the negative welding terminal (-) is used for the welding torch and the positive welding terminal (+) is used for the return cable.
• For MMA welding, the welding cable can be connected to the positive welding terminal (+) or negative welding terminal (-), depending on the type of electrode used. The connection polarity is stated on the electrode packaging.

5.4 Turning the power on/off
Turn on the power by turning the switch to the “ON” (I) position.
Turn the unit off by turning the switch to the “O” position.
Whether the power supply is interrupted or the power source is switched off in the normal manner, weld programs are stored so that they are available the next time the unit is started.
CAUTION!
Do not turn off the power source during welding (with load).
5.5 Fan control
The ET 200iP PRO is fitted with a fan as needed feature. Fan as needed automatically switches the cooling fan off when it is not required. This has two main advantages; (1) to minimize power consumption, and (2) to minimize the amount of contaminants such as dust that are drawn into the power source.
Note that the fan will only operate when required for cooling purposes and will automatically switch off when not required.
5.6 Thermal protection
The power source includes thermal protection against overheating. When overheating occurs the welding is stopped and overheating indicator on the panel will be lit and an error message shows in the display. The protection is automatically reset when the temperature has been sufficiently reduced.
5.7 Functions and symbols
MMA welding
MMA welding may also be referred to as welding with coated electrodes. Striking the arc melts the electrode, and its coating forms protective slag. For MMA welding the power source shall be supplemented with:

• welding cable with electrode holder
• return cable with clamp

Arc force
Arc Force The arc force function determines how the current changes in response to  variations in arc length during welding. Use a low value of arc force to get a calm arc with little spatter and use a high value to get a hot and digging arc.
Arc force only applies to MMA welding.
The arc force function determines how the current changes in response to variations in arc length during welding. Use a low value of arc force to get a calm arc with little spatter and use a high value to get a hot and digging arc.
Arc force only applies to MMA welding.
Hot start
Hot Start The hot start function temporarily increases the current in the beginning of the weld. Use this function to reduce risk of insufficient fusion and electrode sticking and scratching.
Hot start only applies to MMA welding.
TIG welding
TIG welding melts the metal of the workpiece, an arc initiated from a non- consuming tungsten electrode. The weld pool and electrode are protected by shielding gas.
For TIG welding, the welding power source shall be supplemented with:

• a TIG torch with gas valve
• an argon gas cylinder
• an argon gas regulator
• tungsten electrode

This power source performs Live TIG start (TIG Live).
The tungsten electrode is placed against the workpiece. When lifted away from workpiece the arc is struck at a limited current level. HF start
The HF (High Frequency) start function strikes the arc by means of a spark from the tungsten electrode to the workpiece as the electrode is brought closer to the workpiece and the trigger on the TIG torch is pressed.
Voltage Reduction Device (VRD)
VRD The VRD function ensures that the open-circuit voltage does not exceed 35 V when welding is not being carried out. This is indicated by a lit VRD indicator on the panel. Contact an authorised ESAB service technician to activate this function.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING!
The mains supply must be disconnected during cleaning and maintenance.
CAUTION!
Only persons with the appropriate electrical knowledge (authorised personnel) may
remove the safety plates.
CAUTION!
The product is covered by manufacturer’s warranty. Any attempt to carry out repair
work by non-authorised service centers or personnel will invalidate the warranty.
NOTE!
Regular maintenance is important for safe and reliable operation.
NOTE!
Perform maintenance more often during severe dusty conditions.
Before each use – make sure that:

• Product and cables are not damaged,
• The torch is clean and not damaged.

6.1 Routine maintenance
Maintenance schedule during normal conditions. Check equipment prior to every use.

Check or replace weld cables.
Every 6 months| Clean inside equipment. Use dry compressed air with reduced pressure.| |

6.2 Cleaning instruction
To maintain the performance and increase the lifetime of the power source it is mandatory to clean it regularly. How often depends on:

• the welding process
• the arc time
• the working environment

CAUTION!
Make sure that the cleaning procedure is done in a suitable prepared workspace.
CAUTION!
During cleaning, always wear recommended personal safety equipment, such as ear plugs, safety glasses, masks, gloves and safety shoes.

1. Disconnect the power source from the mains supply.
2. Open the enclosure and use a vacuum cleaner to remove any accumulated dirt, metal filings, slag and loose material. Keep the shunt and lead screw surfaces clean as accumulated foreign material may reduce the welders output welding current.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Perform these checks and inspections before sending for an authorised service technician.

• Check that the mains voltage is disconnected before starting any type of repair action.
