Power Source Error Codes - Thermal Arc ARCMASTER 300 MST Operating Manual

11.0 Power Source Error Codes

Description
1 E01 error code displayed
Temperature sensor TH1
(protects IGBTs) is greater
than 80ºC for about 1 second.
2 E02 error code displayed
Temperature sensor TH2
(protects secondary diodes)
is greater than 80ºC for about
1 second.
3 E03 error code displayed
Primary (input) current
too high.
4 E11 error code displayed
Over Primary supply (input)
voltage at primary capacitors
is exceeded for one second.
5 E14 error code displayed
Under mains supply (input)
voltage warning primary
capacitors is reduced for
one second.
6 E12 error code displayed
Under mains supply (input)
voltage primary capacitors is
reduced for one second.
Possible Cause
A The Welding Power
Source's duty cycle has
been exceeded.
B Fan ceases to operate.
C Air flow is restricted by
vents being blocked.
A The Welding Power
Source's duty cycle has
been exceeded.
B Fan ceases to operate.
C Air flow is restricted by
vents being blocked.
A Primary current is too
high because welding
arc is too long.
B Mains supply voltage is
more than 10% below
nominal voltage .
Primary supply voltage
is greater than the
nominal voltage
plus 10%.
Mains supply voltage
is less than the nominal
operating voltage
less 10%.
Mains supply voltage is
down to a dangerously
low level.

Remedy
A Let Power Source cool
down then keep within its
duty cycle.
B Have an Accredited
Thermal Arc Service
Agent investigate
C Unblock vents then let
Power Source cool down.
A Let Power Source cool
down then keep within
its duty cycle.
B Have an accredited
Thermal Arc Service
Agent investigate.
C Unblock vents then let
Power Source cool down.
A Reduce length of
welding arc.
B Have an Accredited
Thermal Arc Service
Agent or a qualified
electrician check for low
Mains voltage.
Have an Accredited
Thermal Arc Service
Agent or a qualified
electrician check the
Primary voltage.
Have an Accredited
Thermal Arc Service
Agent or a qualified
electrician check the
Mains voltage.
Have an accredited
Thermal Arc Service
Agent or a qualified
electrician check the
Mains voltage.
