Excessive Use Of The Machine Causes Overheating

  • This device is in group 2, class A in EMC tests according to TS EN 55011 standard.

  • This class A device is not intended for use in residential areas where electrical power is supplied from a low-voltage power supply. There may be potential difficulties in providing electromagnetic compatibility due to radio frequency interference transmitted and emitted in such places.
    This device is not compliant with IEC 61000 -3-12. In case if it is desired to be connected to the low voltage network used in the home, the installer to make the electrical connection or the person who will use the machine must be aware that the machine has been connected in such a manner; in this case the responsibility belongs to the user.

  • Make sure that the work area complies with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Electromagnetic interferences during welding / cutting operations may cause undesired effects on your electronic devices and network; and the effects of these interferences that may occur during these operations are under the responsibility of the user.

  • If there is any interference, to ensure compliance; extra measures may be taken, such as the use of short cables, use of shielded (armored) cables, transportation of the welding machine to another location, removal of cables from the affected device and / or area, use of filters or taking the work area under protection in terms of EMC.

  • To avoid possible EMC damage, make sure to perform your welding / cutting operations as far away from your sensitive electronic devices as possible (100 m).

  • Ensure that your welding and/or cutting machine has been installed and situated in its place according to the user manual.

Evaluation Of Electromagnetic Suitability Of The Work Area

According to article 5.2 of IEC 60974-9;
Before installing the welding / cutting equipment, the person in charge of the operation and / or the user must conduct an inspection of possible electromagnetic interference in the environment.
Aspects indicated below has to be taken into consideration;
a) Other supply cables, control cables, signal and telephone cables, above and below the welding / cutting machine and its equipment,
b) Radio and television transmitters and receivers,
c) Computer and other control hardware,
d) Critical safety equipment, e.g. protection of industrial equipment,
e) Medical apparatus for people in the vicinity, e.g. pacemakers and hearing aids,
f) Equipment used for measuring or calibration,
g) Immunity of other equipment in the environment. The user must ensure that the other equipment in use in the environment is compatible. This may require additional protection measures.
h) Considering the time during which the welding / cutting operations or other activities take place during the day, the boundaries of the investigation area can be expanded according to the size of the building, the structure of the building and other activities that are being performed in the building.
In addition to the evaluation of the field, evaluation of device installations may also be necessary for solving the interfering effect. In case if deemed necessary, on-site measurements can also be used to confirm the efficiency of mitigation measures.
(Source: IEC 60974-9).

Electromagnetic Interferance Reduction Methods

  • The appliance must be connected to the electricity supply in the recommended manner by a competent person. If interference occurs, additional measures may be applied, such as filtering the network. The supply of the fixed-mounted arc welding equipment must be made in a metal tube or with an equivalent shielded cable. The housing of the power supply must be connected and a good electrical contact between these two structures has to be provided.
  • The recommended routine maintenance of the appliance must be carried out. All covers on the body of the machine must be closed and / or locked when the device is in use. Any changes, other than the standard settings without the written approval of the manufacturer, cannot be modified on the appliance. Otherwise, the user is responsible for any consequences that may possibly occur.
  • Welding / cutting cables should be kept as short as possible. They must move along the floor of the work area, in a side by side manner. Welding / cutting cables should not be wound in any way.
  • A magnetic field is generated on the machine during welding / cutting. This may cause the machine to pull metal parts on to itself. To avoid this attraction, make sure that the metal materials are at a safe distance or fixed. The operator must be insulated from all these interconnected metal materials.
  • In cases where the workpiece cannot be connected to the ground due to electrical safety, or because of its size and position (for example, in building marine vessel bodies or in steel construction manufacturing), a connection between the workpiece and the grounding may reduce emissions in some cases, it should be kept in mind that grounding of the workpiece may cause users to sustain injuries or other electrical equipment in the environment to break down. In cases where necessary, the workpiece and the grounding connection can be made as a direct connection, but in some countries where direct connection is not permissible, the connection can be established using appropriate capacity elements in accordance with local regulations and ordinances.
  • Screening and shielding of other devices and cables in the work area can prevent aliasing effects. Screening of the entire welding / cutting area can be evaluated for some specific applications.

Electromagnetic Field (EMF)

The electrical current passing through any conductor generates zonal electric and magnetic fields (EMF).
All operators must follow the following procedures to minimize the risk of exposure to EMF;

  • In the name of reducing the magnetic field, the welding / cutting cables must be assembled and secured as far as possible with the joining materials (tape, cable ties etc.).
  • The operator’s body and head should be kept as far away from the welding / cutting machine and cables as possible,

  • The welding / cutting machine should not rest against the power unit, ensconce on it and not work too close to it,
  • Welding / cutting work should not be performed when carrying the wire supply unit or power unit.

EMF may also disrupt the operation of medical implants (materials placed inside the body), such as pacemakers. Protective measures should be taken for people who carry medical implants. For example, access limitation may be imposed for passers-by, or individual risk assessments may be conducted for welders. Risk assessment should be conducted and recommendations should be made by a medical professional for users who carry medical implants.

Protection

  • Do not expose the machine to rain, prevent the machine from splashing water or pressurized steam.

Energy Efficiency

  • Choose the welding / cutting method and welding machine for the welding work you are to perform.
  • Select the welding / cutting current and/or voltage to match the material and thickness you are going to weld.
  • If you have to wait for a long time before you start your welding / cutting work, turn off the machine after the fan has cooled it down. Our machines with smart fan control will turn off on their own.

3.6 Connection to Mains
Depending on the selected Mode, welding set current adjustment will be done with the help of the pot. The setting will be performed by turning the pot left or right. Connect the poles according to the type of the welding process.

  •  Start the machine with the on/off switch.
  • Turn the machine off by turning the on / off switch back to off after hearing the fan noise and seeing the mains lamp is illuminated.

3.7 Selection and Replacement of Wire Feed Rollers

  • When you open the cover of the wire feeding section, you can adjust the free gas and wire with the button on the side. You will see the four-roller wire feeding system with an encoder structure. Thanks to its 4 WD system structure, the wire is mechanically driven with the power applied to the four rollers. Even in negativities such as motor heating and increased friction, the wire feed speed will not change, provides excelent arc stability. As soon as the machine is energized, the led inside of the compartment will be active which will make it easier to replace the roller.

Figure 5 : Wire Feed System

  • Use wire feed rollers suitable for the material and diameter of the welding wire you will use. Use V-grooved wire feed rollers for steel and stainless steel, V-grooves type for cored wires and U-grooves type for aluminum.

  • If you need to replace the wire feed rollers, pull the pressure adjustment screw toward your side and after lifting the roller covers, remove the existing rollers.

  • You must unlock the rollers before you can remove them. By reverse-turning the locking direction, the cavities inside the wire feed roller must be overlapped with the protrusions on the wire feed body in order to unlock the lock.

  • Both sides of the rollers are marked according to the wire diameter used.

  • Place the rollers on the flange so that the wire diameter value you will use will be on the side facing your side.

  • Place the roller to be used so that the cavities inside the wire feed roller overlap the protrusions on the wire feed body. Turn to the right or left to ensure that the locking sound is heard and that the wire feed rollers are in place. Then lower the pressure rollers and lift the pressure roll lever to lock it onto the pressure roller.

3.8 Placing The Wire Spool And Wire Feeding Process

  • Unscrew the screw of the wire transport system by turning it. Slide the welding wire roller onto the wire carrier system shaft and re-tighten the screw.

Figure 8 : Placement of Wire Spool

Tightening the screw of the wire transport system prevents the wire from being fed and may cause failures. If the screw has not been tightened adequately this can cause the wire spool to empty after a period of time when the wire feed has stopped. For this reason, do not connect the screw too tightly or too loosely.

  • Pull and lower the pressure screw on the wire feed roller, which means bring the pressure rollers to idle position.

  • Find and open the welding wire end from the wire spool and cut off the end with a side chisel.

If the end of the wire is missed, the wire can jump like a spring and damage you and others.

  • Pass the wire through the wire entry slot without releasing the wire into the rollers and into the torch through the rollers.

Figure 9 : Feeding the Wire to Rollers

  • Pull the pressure adjustment screws towards you and release the pressure on the rollers 1.
  • Turn the on/off switch to position “1” to start the machine 2.
  • Remove the nozzle and the contact nozzle and press the trigger until the wire comes out from the tip of the torch, while observing that the welding wire roller rotates freely then push and release the trigger a few times to check for any loosening of the winding 3.
  •  Re-attach the nozzle and contact nozzle to the torch when the wire comes out from the tip of the torch 4.
  • Drive the wire on a non-insulating material 5 such as wood and make the appropriate wire pressure adjustment 6 and cut the tip of the wire 7.

The following effects will occur if the pressure adjustment screw is overtightened, left loose or if the wrong wire feed roller is used.
A: Suitable wire pressure and conduit dimensions.
B: The wire is distorted since the pressure lever is too tight.
C: The roller surface is deteriorated due to excessive pressure on the pressure lever.
D: The conduit length of the roller is small for the wire used. Wire form is distorted.
E: The conduit length of the roller is big for the wire used. The wire cannot be transmitted to the welding area.

3.9 Adjustment of Gas Flow
Make the gas adjustment and gas test by lifting the wire feed roller pressure lever!

  • Adjust the gas flow with the flow control valve.
  • Practical gas flow rate (CO₂, Ar, mixture) is 10 times of wire diameter. For example, if the wire diameter is 0.9 mm, the gas flow rate can be adjusted as 10 x 0.9 = 9 l / min.
  • You can use the table on the side for more precise flow adjustment.
  • After adjusting the gas flow, lift the thrust bearing arm and close the wire feed unit door.
