The power source is tested to “Degree of protection IP23”, meaning:
-
Protection against penetration by solid foreign bodies with diameters larger than 12
mm
- Protection against spraywater up to an angle of 60° to the upright
The power source can be set up and operated outdoors in accordance with IP23.
However, the built-in electrical components must be protected against direct wetting.

Fig.9 Tolerance ranges of the mains voltage
The power source is designed to run on
the mains voltage given on the rating
plate. The mains cable and plug are
ready-mounted. For details of fuse
protection of the mains supply lead,
please see the Technical Data.
The power source can be run as standard
on a mains voltage of 230 V~ (+/- 15%).
Thanks to its +/-15% tolerance range, the power source can also be run on the 220 V~
and the 240 V~ mains.
Note! Operation with the wrong mains voltage will invalidate all warranty
claims.
Note! If the power source is designed to run on a special voltage, the Technical
Data shown on the rating plate apply. The mains plug and mains supply lead,
and their fuse protection, must be dimensioned accordingly.
- The mains plug used must correspond exactly to the mains voltage and current
rating of the power source in question, as given in the Technical Data!
- The fuse protection for the mains lead should be suitable for the current
consumption of the power source!

Warning! A welding machine that topples over can easily kill someone! Place
the welding machine on an even, firm floor in such a way that it stands firmly.
Note! The venting duct is a very important safety feature. When choosing the
machine location, make sure that it is possible for the cooling air to enter and
exit unhindered through the louvers on the front and back of the machine. Any
metallic dust from e.g. grinding-work must not be allowed to get sucked into the
power source.
