General remarks

Principle of the
digital family of
machines
Fig.1
The new power sources are completely digitalised, microprocessor controlled inverter
power sources. An interactive power-source manager is coupled with a digital signal
processor, and together they control and regulate the entire welding process. The actual
data are measured continuously, and the machine responds immediately to any chan-
ges. The control algorithms developed by Fronius ensure that the specified target status
that is desired is maintained.
This leads to a hitherto unique and incomparable precision in the weld process, exact
replicability of all results, and superlative welding properties.

Machine concept

Typical features of the new machines are their tremendous flexibility and extremely easy
adaptability to many varied tasks. The reasons for these welcome characteristics may be
found not only in the modular product design, but also in the scope that the system gives
for troublefree system extensions.
You can adapt your machine to practically any specific situation. For example, the TP
4000 CEL / TP 5000 CEL power sources come with a polarity reverser with which you
can quickly and easily change over the polarity at the welding-current sockets. In particu-
lar if CEL electrodes are used, this makes for very controlled, gentle root fusion when
welding root passes.
Thanks to the wide selection of remote-control units and TIG welding torches, and the
space-saving design of the trolley, perfect welding results can be achieved in practically
every situation, with optimum ergonomical convenience for the user, and in the shortest
possible time.
The remote-control units are available in a number of different user-specific operating
formats. In addition, the compact wireless remote-control unit TP 08 is available for rod
electrode welding. This remote control unit facilitates wireless correction of the set
welding current during welding breaks.

Areas of use

In the workshop and industrial fields, there are innumerable areas of application for the
TP 4000 CEL / TP 5000 CEL. In terms of materials, they are of course also suitable for
classical steel as well as chromium/nickel.
With their 380 and 480 amps of power respectively, the TP 4000 CEL / 5000 CEL easily
meet even the most stringent demands of industrial users. They are designed for use in
the fields of apparatus construction and chemical plant engineering, in the construction
of machinery and rolling stock, and in shipyards.
The TP 4000 CEL / TP 5000 CEL power
sources
The TP 4000 CEL / 5000 CEL is a further
member of the new generation of all-digital
power sources. What is more, the TP
4000 CEL / 5000 CEL is the first-ever fully
digital power source to be designed
specifically for the rod electrode and TIG
(with touchdown ignition) welding proces-
ses.
