CY-210D WARNING Do not insert your fingers or hands between the electrodes. When welding, keep your fingers and hands away from the electrodes. Do not touch any welded part or electrode during welding or just after completion of welding. The welded parts of a workpiece, electrodes, and the arm are very hot. Do not touch them;...

CY-210D CAUTION Always use a terminal cover. Touching the terminal block directly may result in electric shock. Be sure to fit the block with a cover. Connect the cables securely. Improper connection of a cable may result in fire or electric shock. Use proper tools (wire strippers, pressure wire connectors, etc.) for terminal treatment of the connecting cables.
CY-210D (2) Precautions for Handling Install the Controller securely on a firm and level surface, to ensure that it will not fall. Do not install the Controller in the following locations: Damp areas (where the humidity is above 90%), areas where chemicals are handled, dusty areas, areas near a high noise source, areas where water may condense, areas exposed to large amounts of vibration or shock, and areas where temperatures are above 45C or below 0C Clean the exterior of the Controller using a soft, dry cloth or one slightly dampened with water.
CY-210D 2. Features The WELTOUCH CY-210D is a constant/alternating-current resistance weld control with a 15-schedule setting function. It is controlled by a microcomputer, allowing it to be applied to all types of welding. Due to the plating-layer treatment by the pre-stage current, heat treatment by the post-stage current, etc., splashing is prevented, the welding tip is protected from overheating, and an ideal welding current can be set.
