Page 14: Ap2:2H. Auxiliary Power Supply
PFC control is built on the specialised integrated circuit IC3. PFC control senses the DC bus voltage, input current (5,6 CN1) and input voltage, providing the constant 390...400V on the DC bus along with sinusoidal form of the input current. This goal is achieved by the control of the switch in the boost converter placed on the power PCB. - Page 15 The auxiliary power supply is built as flyback converter. Estimated maximum power of it is 25W. The most loaded output is the +24V secondary side. It provides the power for all low voltage control circuits and also power for the fan and the gas valve.

Note that low voltage ground (GND_INV) is connected via CN4.2 to the power supply (+). It enables creation of the summing point in system with unipolar supply. Nevertheless the voltage feedback inverting amplifier gives the signal in opposite phase. This signal is delivered to the next inverting amplifier, which is not shown on the drawing.
- Page 21 The current reference signal IREF_IN from the voltage regulator is delivered via 2 diodes to the current input (COMP) of the PWM controller IC11. Diodes were applied to compensate voltage drop on diodes embedded in the IC11. Current feedback is provided by means of the current transformer TO02, placed on the power PCB.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS WARNING ! STATIC ELECTRICITY can damage circuit boards and electronic components. Observe precautions for handling electrostatic S S S S sensitive devices. Use proper static- -proof bags and boxes. S S S S What is ESD? A sudden transfer or discharge of static electricity from one object to another. ESD stands for Electrostatic Discharge. -
Page 33: Handling Of The Control Pcb
When the voltage is less then 50V a 1kW 0,5W resistor may be used for the final discharge. Handling of the control PCB Carefully put the control PCB in place. Try to avoid touching the wrong pins during placement of the PCB. The slit in the control PCB and the diode on the power PCB should help with positioning. -
Page 34: Assembly Of The Housing
ATTENTION! All primary and secondary circuits must be short--circuited to protect semiconductor devices. The insulation resistance between welding circuits (secondary circuits) and primary circuits should be more then 5M . It is recommended to carry out the insulation resistance test during periodical survey dependently on the environmental conditions, not less then once a year. -

There are tongue--and--groove joints in the upper part of housing. To avoid damaging of the joint and achieve good connection, it is strongly recommended to follow the bolts insertion sequence presented on the drawing. Fault tracing Type of fault Actions Machine is dead. -
Page 36: General Failure Of The Power Block
General failure of the power block Failure in the power block frequently means the short--circuit of the DC bus. Unfortunately it causes an avalanche of further failures. Mechanism of the avalanche of failures is shown on the picture. DC bus short--circuit causes damage and disconnection of the shunt resistor inside the module. -

Questions and answers
Esab caddy c200i with flashing screen and just stopped working after finishing a weld
The ESAB Caddy Mig C200i screen may flash and stop working after completing a weld due to a malfunction or safety protection being triggered. The machine is protected against welding start during power-on, and if the torch pushbutton is pressed while turning on, operation is disabled until the button is released. Malfunctions require expert assistance, and the device should not be used until inspected.
