Unstable Welding
Voltage
Wire Feed Jam
Water Flow Too Low
Water Flow Detected
Description
The generator is unable to
deliver the pre-set value
(voltage) requested by the
wire feeder.
It can appears:
1.
During welding:
Motor is at maximum
power and is not able to
maintain the pre-set WFS
value.
The wire feeder has
detected:
No water flow.
•
Too low water flow
•
(less than 0.7
liter/min).
The wire feeder has
detected water flow while
the setting in select menu
is water cooler "no".
Misadjustment(s)
Check that welding pre-set
•
parameters (WFS and
Voltage) matches the
application (wire diameter,
thickness, gas...).
Check the polarity switch
•
position of the generator
correspond to the polarity
of the wire feeder
connection.
Check the remote control
•
switch of the generator set
on "Remote" position.
Check if pre-set
•
parameters are not above
the specified limit of the
generator.
Verify wire can move freely
•
in cable.
Verify spool brake is not
•
set too high.
Check if the water cooler is
•
on and filled up with
coolant.
Check the water circuit
•
including water cooled
torch connection.
The setting of water cooler
•
is wrong in the select
menu.
Note: In this case, flow meter
protection is not used.
A-11
Corrective Action
Adjust parameters.
•
Correct polarity switch
•
position and wire feeder
polarity connection.
Select "remote" position.
•
Reduce the parameters or
•
use an higher rating
generator.
Clean or replace the liner.
•
Adjust spool brake.
•
Fill up and switch on water

cooler.
Remove blockage in water

circuit.
Select the correct setting of
