Electromagnetic interference needing attention. ● It may need extra preventive measures when the equipment is used in particular location. ● Before the installation, please estimate the potential electromagnetism problems of the environment as follows. a) Upper and lower parts of the welding equipments and other nearby power cable, control cable, signal cable and phone cable.
MACHINE DESCRIPTION The welding machine is a rectifier adopting the most advanced inverter technology. The development of inverter welding equipment profits from the development of the inverter power supply theory and components. The inverter welding power source utilizes high-power component single tube IGBT to transfer 50/60Hz frequency up to 15KHz, then reduce the voltage and commutate, and output high-power voltage via PWM technology.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION The machine is equipped with power voltage automatic transfer device. When the power voltage fluctuated between 1 phase AC220V and 2 phase AC380V, the machine would transfer automatically to relevant working station. What’s more, it can adapt to the electric grid very well, and also can work continuously in allowable range(AC160V~460V).
OPERATION INSTRUCTION 1. Turn on the power switch, the power indicator of the front panel is in work and indicate 220V or380V and the fan is beginning to run. The delay startup function is installed in the machine ,when the machine is begin 6 to 8 seconds ,make sure power voltage automatic transfer equipment can work reliable, and then begin to welding.

If any difference with the real machine, please follow with the real machine.
NOTES OR PREVENTIVE MEASURES 1. Environment 1) The machine should be operated in dry environments with humidity levels of max 90%. 2 ) Ambient temperature should be between -10 to 40 degrees centigrade. 3) Avoid welding in sunshine or drippings. Do not let water infiter the machine. 4 )...
QUESTIONS TO BE RUN INTO DURING WELDING Fittings, welding materials, environment factor, supply powers maybe have something to do with welding. User must try to improve welding environment. A. Arc-striking is difficult and easy to pause 1. Make sure quality of tungsten electrode is high. 2.
MAINTENANCE 1. Remove dust by dry and clean compressed air regularly, if welding machine is operating in environment where is polluted with smokes and pollution air, the machine need remove dust every month. 2. Pressure of compressed air must be within the reasonable range in order to prevent damaging to small components of inner-machine.
TROUBLESHOOTING AND FAULT FINDING Notes: The following operations must be performed by qualified electricians with valid certifications. Before maintenance,please contact with us for professional suggestion. ARC 315GTS faults symptom and solutions: Fault symptom Solution 1. Make sure power switch is off.
