General
Device concept
TransSteel 3500 / 5000 Syn
The TransSteel (TSt) 3500 Syn and TSt
5000 Syn power sources are fully di-
gitised, microprocessor-controlled in-
verter power sources.
The modular design and potential for
system add-ons ensure a high degree
of flexibility.
The devices are designed for the weld-
ing of steel and the following welding
processes:
- MAG welding
- MMA welding
The device has a "Power limitation"
safety feature. This means that the
power source can be operated at the
power limit without compromising pro-
cess safety. For more information, see
the "Welding mode" section.
Functional prin-
ciple The central control and regulation unit of the power source is coupled with a di-
gital signal processor. The central control and regulation unit and signal pro-
cessor control the entire welding process.
During the welding process, the actual data is measured continuously and the
device responds immediately to any changes. Control algorithms ensure that the
desired command values are kept.
This results in:
- a precise welding process,
- a high degree of reproducibility of all results,
- excellent weld properties.
Application
areas The devices are used in the commercial sector for manual and automated applic-
ations with classical steel and galvanised sheets:
- Machine and equipment construction
- Steelwork
- Plant and container construction
- Shipyards and the offshore industry
- Metal and gantry construction
- Rail vehicle construction
- Metalworking trades
Warning notices
on the device Warning notices and safety symbols are affixed to the power source. These warn-
ing notices and safety symbols must not be removed or painted over. They warn
against incorrect operation, as this may result in serious injury and damage.
