Duty cycle The letter “X” stands for Duty Cycle, which is defined as the portion of the time a welding machine Over-heat can weld continuously with it’s rated output current within a certain time cycle (10 minutes). The relation between the duty cycle “X” and the output welding current “I” is shown as the right figure. If the welding machine is overheating, the IGBT over-heat protection sensing will send a signal to the welding machine control unit to cut the output welding current OFF and light the over-heat pilot lamp on the front panel.
Maintenance 1. Service the wire feed mechanism at least every time the reel is changed. of MIG Gun · Check the wear of the feed roll groove and change the feed roll when necessary. mechanism · Clean the welding gun wire guide with compressed air. 2.
Operation Layout for the front and rear panel Output “-“ MIG GUN Connect. Welding current/wire speed knob: Set the welding current/wire speed. Welding volt knob: Set the welding volt Alarm Led: When the welder is over voltage, less voltage, over current or over heated, the alarm pilot lamp will be on.
4.2 Welding operation 4.2.1 Voltage You can use the voltage setting knob to set the output voltage before welding. setting 4.2.2 Wire You can use current setting knob to set the wire speed when the wire speed LED is on. When the speed setting current LED is on, it display the actual output welding current.
Material too thick. Joint preparation and design needs to allow access to bottom of groove while maintaining proper welding wire extension and arc Poor in incorrect joint preparation Lack of characteristics Keep the arc at the leading edge of the weld pool and Penetration −...
Operation Notices ▲ Read Section §1 carefully before starting to use this equipment. ▲ Ensure that the input is single-phase: 50/60Hz, 220V ±15%. ▲ Before operation, none concerned people should not be around the working area and especially children. Do not watch the arc in unprotected eyes. ▲...
Troublesho- oting - Before the welding machines are dispatched from the factory, they have already been tested and calibrated accurately. It is forbidden for anyone who is not authorized by our company to do any change to the equipment! - Maintenance course must be operated carefully. If any wire becomes flexible or is misplaced, it maybe potential danger to user! - Only professional maintenance staff that isauthorized by our company could overhaul the machine! - Be sure to shut off the Main Input Power before doing any repair work on the welding machine!
