    Inspection and cleaning WARNING! The mains supply must be disconnected before cleaning! Power source Check regularly that the welding power source is not clogged with dirt. How often and which cleaning methods apply depend on: the welding process, arc times, placement, and the surrounding environment. It is normally sufficient to blow down the power source with dry compressed air (reduced pressure) once a year.

  • Page 15 Slope up The slope up function means that, when the TIG arc strikes, the current rises slowly to the set value. This provides ‘gentler’ heating of the electrode, and gives the welder a chance to position the electrode properly before the set welding current is reached. Pulse current The higher of the two current values in the event of pulsed current.
  • Page 16 The HF function strikes the arc by means of a spark from the electrode to the workpiece as the electrode is brought closer to the workpiece. LiftArct The LiftArct function strikes the arc when the electrode is brought into contact with the workpiece and then lifted away from it.

    NOTE! The VRD function is not active (LED has gone out) on delivery. Contact an authorised Murex service technician to activate the function. 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.

    13.2 Fault code descriptions Fault Description code 5 V power supply low The power supply voltage is too low. The current welding process is stopped and starting is prevented. Action: Turn off the mains power supply to reset the unit. Send for a service technician if the fault persists.
  • Page 24 Fault Description code E 20 High inductance in the welding circuit The power source cannot produce the desired current because the measured inductance in the welding circuit is too high. The fault indication is reset if the inductance reading receives a sufficiently low value at weld start. Resetting can also be achieved by turning off the power.
