It is forbidden to attempt to repair damaged electronic boards or modules; replace them with original Cebora spare parts. 1.3 - Safety information. The safety notes provided in this manual are an integral part of those given in the Instruction Manual.
2 - SYSTEM DESCRIPTION 2.1 - Introduction. The POWER ROD 1565 Cell is a system for MMA, MMA Cellulosic and TIG welding with strike starting of the arc. It is made up of an electronic power source (art. 255), and a set of accessories to adapt to various types of applications (see list in Sales Catalogue).
(ex.: torch T150, arts. 1567.02 or 1567.20 Cebora). The signals processed by the electronic boards and present at their connectors are listed in the table in chapter five of this manual.
CEBORA S.p.A. 3 - MAINTENANCE WARNINGS ANY INTERNAL INSPECTIONS OR REPAIRS MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL. BEFORE BEGINNING MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS, UNPLUG THE MACHINE FROM THE MAINS AND WAIT FOR THE INTERNAL CAPACITORS TO DISCHARGE (2 MINUTES). 3.1 - Periodic inspection, cleaning.
In TIG mode, connect the cable of the positive pole of the power source to the workpiece, the TIG torch (Cebora torch T150 recommended) to the negative pole of the power source, and the torch control cable to the connector (H) on the front of the power source.
CEBORA S.p.A. 3.3 - Troubleshooting. WARNINGS ANY INTERNAL INSPECTIONS OR REPAIRS MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL. BEFORE REMOVING THE PROTECTIVE GUARDS AND ACCESSING INTERNAL PARTS, DISCONNECT THE POWER SOURCE FROM THE MAINS AND WAIT FOR THE INTERNAL CAPACITORS TO DISCHARGE (2 MINUTES).
CEBORA S.p.A. ♦ Check the wiring between CN1 power board (11) and CN1 panel board (16). ♦ With the power source off, temporarily disconnect connector CN1 on panel board (16), and make sure that terminals 2 and 10 and terminals 3 and 1 of CN1 on panel board (16) are not short-circuited.
CEBORA S.p.A. 3.3.4 - In TIG mode, the start button does not generate output voltage. START COMMAND TEST. Power board (11), connector CN1, terminals 7 (+) and 10 (-) = voltage of the START Signal as shown in the table.
CEBORA S.p.A. 3.3.6 - In resistive load operation, the output voltage is not regular. NOTE For the following tests use a resistive load capable of withstanding the maximum power source current. The appropriate values are shown in the table. Process...
CEBORA S.p.A. ♦ Check the connection between terminals “-V” and “+V” on the power board (11), with the output terminals – and + of the power source. If you find loose connections, tighten and replace any damaged terminals. ♦ Replace the power board (11).
CEBORA S.p.A. 3.3.8 - In MMA, difficulty striking the arc, welding irregular. NOTE The power source art. 255 offers the functions HOT-START, to assist striking the arc in both MMA and TIG modes, and ARC-FORCE, to maximize transferring the electrode drop to the workpiece in MMA welding.
CEBORA S.p.A. 3.4 - Error codes. 3.4.1 - Yellow led (B) lit steadily. Alarm for temperature above limits. The thermostat is located on the dissipater of the power mosfets of the power board (11). The power source delivers no current, but the fan remains in operation; we therefore recommend leaving the power source powered in case of alarm for overtemperature.
