C240e

6.2

Functions explanation

6.2.1

Overheating protection

When the machine is switched on with the mains switch [1], indicating lamp [4] is on and

lamp [5] off 

 the machine is ready to operate. If the internal temperature becomes too

high, the welding is interrupted and disabled. This state is indicated by lighting of the

orange indicating lamp [5] on the front of the machine. It resets automatically when the

temperature has fallen.

6.2.2

Inductance connection

Higher inductance produces a more flowing weld and fewer spatters. Lower inductance

produces a harsher sound and a stable, concentrated arc.

6.3

ESABMig C240

The ESABMig C240 is equipped with standard control unit. Welder can manually

select and adjust all welding parameters.

S

Wire speed (1,9 

 19m/min).

S

Spot

welding time.

S

Burn back time.

The machine C240 can be fitted with a digital instrument that displays current and

voltage. It incorporates a hold function (see page 19).
