5.17 JOB safety switching
Power sources for mechanised MIG/MAG welding (PHOENIX) or mechanised TIG/PLASMA welding do
not normally use data records (JOBs) which are used for the electrode welding process.
However, if a data record of this type is contained in the JOB database and is selected accidentally, there
is an automatic system start (not by the interface), in which there is open circuit voltage on the torch
system (wire feeds are not activated). In this case, there is a risk of secondary accidents caused by direct
contact with live torch parts.
To prevent the risk of accidents, the BUSINTX11 automatically switches to a JOB suitable for the welding
system when an unsuitable JOB has been selected on the robot side (e.g. TIG or electrode with the
PHOENIX).
No switching is carried out if the user switches to an unsuitable JOB using the control unit (e.g. M310). In
this case, the system will switch back to a JOB selected by the robot when the next start signal is issued.
