INSTALLATION
3-1.
LOCATION (Figure
3-1)
-
A proper installation
site should be selected for the
welding
power
source
if
the unit is
to
provide dependable
service,
and remain
relatively
maintenance free.
A proper installation site
permits
freedom of air
move
ment
into and
out
of the
welding
power source, and
also least
subjects
the unit
to
dust, dirt, moisture,
and
corrosive
vapors. A
minimum of 18 inches
(457 mm)
of
unrestricted
space
must
be maintained between the
welding
power
source
front and
rear
panels
and the
nearest
obstruction.
Also,
the underside of the
welding
power
source
must
be
kept completely
free of obstruc
tions.
The installation site should also
permit
easy
removal of
the
welding
power
source
outer
enclosure
for maintenance functions.
IMPORTANT: Do
not
place
any
filtering
device
over
the intake air passages of the
we/ding
power
source as
this would restrict the
volume
of intake air and
thereby
subject
the
welding
power
source
internal components
to
an
overheating
condition
and
subsequent
failure.
Warranty
is void if any
type
of
filtering
device is used.
Holes
are
provided
in the
welding
power
source
base for
mounting
purposes.
Figure
3-1
gives
overall
dimensions
and the base
mounting
hole
layout.
