1. GENERAL PROVISIONS Inverter digital rectifiers PATON PRO-315 are designed for manual metal arc welding (MAW "MMA"), argon-arc welding (ARG "TIG") and semi-automatic welding (SA "MIG/MAG") in the medium of protective gases and mixtures (as a current source in the composition with an external feeder) for direct current. The...

ARG “TIG” welding - only the argon torch is connected; c) during semi-automatic welding SA “MIG/MAG” with solid wire - the “ground” cable is connected; d) during semi-automatic welding SA “MIG/MAG” with flux wire - the feeder cable is connected. -8 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
2.3 POWER CONNECTION The welding machine in the standard version is designed for a three-phase mains voltage of 3x400 V (the neutral wire N of the supply mains cannot be used for grounding). -9 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
Warning! In the MAW “MMA” welding mode, after the main switch is turned to the “I” position, the stick electrode is under voltage. Do not touch the conductive or grounded objects with an electrode, such as, for example, the welding machine -10 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
In the advanced settings, you can change both the “Hot Start” [H.St] force and the “Hot Start” [t.HS] time. Without the need, do not overestimate the force and response time of the “Hot Start”, because at high limit values a very strong supply -11 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
[u.AF]. Without the need, do not overestimate the force and the level of the “Arc-Force”, because at high limit values, especially when welding with thin electrodes (less than Ø 3.2 mm), it affects the “Anti-stick” function activation. -12 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
(ANO-21, MP-3). For more comfortable operation with electrodes with a basic type of coating (UONI-13/45, LKZ-70), it is recommended (but not mandatory) to set the slope [BAH] to 1.0 V/A. In turn, for welding by electrodes -13 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
“OFF” position, i.e. the function is turned off, and the pulsation frequency [Fr.P] and “duty cycle” [dut] are at the most common values of 5.0 Hz and 50%, respectively . To enable the function, it is enough to set the pulsating power [Po.P] -14 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
These parameters are set in different ways in different situations, according to the welder's requirements. The order of changing the value of any function in the current welding mode, see cl. 6.1. 4. TUNGSTEN ARC INERT GAS WELDING (TIG) -15 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
Remember that at high arc currents, a very sharpened electrode melts easily, due to the low heat transfer. "Risks" from sharpening should be located along the electrode axis. 4.1 WELDING PROCESS CYCLE - TIG-LIFT t, s For the order of changing any function value, see cl. 6.1 -16 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
The weld formation shape and quality depends on the correct function setting, which reduces the likelihood of pores and reduces the structure graininess, which in turn increases the welded joint strength. -17 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...

Please, look for it in the specific feed unit operating manual. In the independent wire feed units of the new generation manufactured by PATON™, everything is already provided for, therefore the adaptation will take place with minimal effort. You only need to spent only on fixing the plug in connector 6.
By default, the function value is set to 0.1 seconds, i.e. turned off. This value can be changed at your discretion, see the order of change in cl.6.1 -21 - PATON PRO-315 MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...
