Brief principle

MIG/NB/NBC series welding machine principle diagram is shown as figure3 andfigure4.

This machine adopts IGBT inverter soft switch technology, and the input power issingle-phase 220V or 3-phase 380V.This technology can raise the frequency, reducethevoltage, rectification and filtering, then get the direct current suitable for welding. Thewhole process raise the dynamic response speed and reduce the size and weight ofwelding machine. Circuit is closed-loop controlled, and it is a excellent grid compensationfor welding.

MIG/NB/NBC series inverter welding machine output characteristic is shown as figure 5:

Operation

   It shows relative value about wire feeding speed when the re ar e no-load welding and it can show actual current value when welding.

2. Output voltage meter
   It shows preset value when no-load welding and actual value when welding.

3. Voltage adjusting knob
   Adjust welding voltage.

4. Current adjusting knob
   Adjust the welding current.

5. Inductance adjusting knob

9. Manual wire feeding knob is used for fast feeding.

Back panel

Back panel of welding machine is as figure 7 below:

1. Automatic air switch
   This switch will automatically power off when welding machine is over-loador broken. The switch used in general and it can’t be used as power switch.

2. Power source input cable
   Yellow and green wire should earth and other wires c a n connect with single- phase or 3-phase input power as requirements.

3. Heater output socket（AC36V）
   Connect with the CO2 regulator.
