DUTY CYCLE

RATED OUTPUT
For additional output ratings reference the S30185 rating plate.
The duty cycle is the "on" time (based on a 10 minute interval) the user can
weld with the machine at a specific output without causing a thermal trip.
Example: 30% duty cycle means welding at the specified output for
3 constant minutes and needing 7 minutes of "off" time before
welding again.
INPUT LINE VOLTAGE VARIATIONS
High Line Voltage/ Low Line Voltage — The Power MIG 210 MP will
operate between 100 and 250VAC 60Hz
WIRE FEED OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The Power MIG 210MP features overload protection of the wire drive
motor. If the motor becomes overloaded, the protection circuitry turns
off the wire feed unit. Check for proper size tip, liner, and drive rolls,
for any obstructions or bends in the gun cable, and any other factors
that would impede the wire feeding. To resume welding, simply pull
the trigger. There is no circuit breaker to reset.
Figure C.8
If the duty cycle of the machine is exceeded, then the machine will
thermally trip and the image shown will be displayed on the user
interface. The machine must cool down before welding can be
performed.
