Murex Welding Products Ltd, EN8 7TF England, gives its unreserved guarantee that welding power source Tradesarc 200 from serial number 827 (2008 w 27) are constructed and tested in compliance with the standard EN 60974--1 and EN 60974--10 (Class A) in accordance with the requirements of directive (2006/95/EC) and (2004/108/EEC).
A equipment in those locations, due to conducted as well as radiated disturbances. INTRODUCTION Tradesarc 200 is a welding current power source intended for use with coated electrodes (MMA welding) and TIG welding. Accessories for the product can be found on page 26.
Equipment Tradesarc 200 is supplied with a 3 m welding cable, return cable, 3 m mains cable and an instruction manual for power source and control panel. Control panel Welding process parameters are controlled via the control panel, see page 10.

OPERATION PFC - - Power factor correction The Tradesarc 200 is 230 V single--phase power sources equipped with a PFC cir- cuit making it possible to use the full range of the machine on a 16 A fuse. The PFC also protects the machines against fluctuating mains voltage and makes it safer to use with a generator.
MMA welding Tradesarc 200 gives direct current, and you can weld most metals to alloy and non-- alloy steel, stainless steel and cast iron. Tradesarc 200 allows you to weld most coated electrodes from Ø 1.6 to Ø 3.25. MMA welding may also be referred to as welding with coated electrodes. Striking the arc melts the electrode, and its coating forms protective slag.
”Live TIG- - start” With “Live TIG start” the arc strikes when the tungsten electrode is brought into contact with the workpiece and then lifted away from it. Remote control unit The remote control unit is connected to the remote control socket on the power source.
Check that the correct electrodes are being used. Check the gas flow. Fault codes Tradesarc 200 comes with built--in fault monitoring. If a fault occurs, a code is shown in the display, see page 15. CONTROL PANEL When mains power is supplied the unit runs a self diagnosis of the LEDs and the display, the program version is displayed and in this example the program version is 0.18.

Arc force The arc force is important in determining how the current changes in response to a change in the arc length. A lower value gives a calmer arc with less spatter.
11.2 Symbol and Function explanations TIG welding TIG welding melts the metal of the workpiece, using an arc struck from a tungsten elec- trode, which does not melt itself. The weld pool and the electrode are protected by shielding gas. ”LiveTig start”...
FAULT CODES Fault codes are used to indicate that a fault has occurred in the equipment. It is indicated in the display by an E followed by a fault code number. If several faults have been detected only the code for the last occurring fault is displayed.
Repair and electrical work should be performed by an authorized serviceman. Use only original spare and wear parts. Tradesarc 200 is designed and tested in accordance with the international and Europe- an standards IEC/EN 60974- -1 and EN 60974- -10. It is the obligation of the service unit which has carried out the service or repair work to make sure that the product still conforms to the said standard.
