General informations
1. Description of installation
The UltraMig 175 is a SYNERGIC AND MANUAL MIG
welding unit which uses a thyristor-based power
source controlled by a microprocessor with remote
opération.
The microprocessor provides synchronized adjustment
of the welding voltage and the wire feed speed by
means of a single control knob on the torch
(SYNERGIC control). Also controls the welding cycle
(striking the arc and the end of the weld) and the
thermal safety devices.
2. Electrical connections
The welding machine is delivered with its primary or
input power cable already attached. The power supply
should be protected by a system of fuses or circuit
breakers matching the primary draw of the machines.
3. Installation equipment
3.1 Wire feed unit
The drive unit comes fitted with one set of rollers which
will accept wire sizes of 0.6 and 0.8mm (.024” and
.030”).
3.2 Torch
The UltraMig 175 is delivered equipped with a torch,
tips, and accessories for 0.6 and 0.8mm (.024” and
.030”) size wire.
3.3 Ground cable connection
The UltraMig 175 comes with a ground cable already
attached to the machine. It is possible to change the
polarity of the ground cable according to the type of
welding wire used as follows:
A. Attach the ground cable lug to one of the terminals (+
or -), located immediately on top of the wire feeder; (to
the “+” if you use a shielded (flux core) wire and to the “-
” if you use solid wire).
B. Attach the other wire coming from the electrical side
to the other terminal.
