ADJUSTING THE WELDING CURRENT
The following settings correspond to the applicable current range depending on the type and diameter of the electrode used. These ranges are quite
large as they depend on the usage and the welding position.
electrode Ø (mm) Rutile E6013 (A) Basic E7018 (A) Cellulosic E6010 (A)
1.6 30-60 30-55 -
2.0 50-70 50-80 -
2.5 60-100 80-110 60-75
3.15 80-150 90-140 85-90
4.0 100-200 125-210 120-160
5 150-290 200-260 110-170
6.3 200-385 220-340 -
ADJUSTING THE ARC FORCE
It is advisable to set the Arc Force to the middle position (0) to start welding and then adjust it according to the results obtained and individual welding
preferences. Note: The adjustment range of the Arc Force is specific to the type of electrode chosen.
GOUGING
During gouging, an electric arc burns between the gouging electrode and the metal workpiece, heating the workpiece to fusion. This weld pool is
«cleaned» with compressed air. Gouging requires an electrode holder with a compressed air connection (ref. 041516) and gouging electrodes:

PROCESS SETTINGS
Units
Welding current A
The welding current is determined by the diameter and type of gouging electrode (max. 400 A).
(refer to the electrode packaging).
Access to some interface functions is not available in Gouge mode (JOB, etc.).
POWER
A method developed for welding with DMOS-regulated energy control. As well as displaying the energy of the weld bead after welding, this mode
allows the setting of the thermal coefficient according to the standard used: One for ASME standards and 0.6 (TIG) or 0.8 (MMA/MIG-MAG) for
European standards. The energy displayed is calculated taking into account this coefficient.
OPTIONAL PUSH-PULL TORCH
Reference number Wire diameter Length Cooling type
038738 0.8 > 1.2 mm 8 m Air
038141 0.8 > 1.2 mm 8 m Liquid
038745 0.8 > 1.6 mm 8 m Liquid
A push-pull torch can be connected to the power source via the socket (I-13). This type of torch allows the use of AlSi wire even in Ø 0.8 mm with a
torch length of 8 m. This torch can be used in all MIG-MAG welding modes.
The Push-Pull torch is detected by simply pulling the trigger.
When using a push-pull torch with potentiometer, the highest control range setting can be set using the interface.
The potentiometer can then range anywhere between 50% and 100% within this setting.
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL
• RC-HA2 Analogue remote control (ref. 047679):
An analogue remote control can be connected to the power source via the socket (I-13).
This controller acts on the voltage (first potentiometer) and the wire speed (second potentiometer). These settings are then inaccessible from the
power source’s interface.
• RC-HD2 Digital remote control (ref. 062122):
A digital remote control can be connected to the power source via the NUM-1 Kit (option ref. 063938).
This remote control is designed for MIG/MAG, MMA and TIG welding processes. It enables the welding unit to be controlled remotely. An ON/OFF
button is used to switch the digital remote control on or off. When the digital remote control is switched on, the HMI power source displays the cur -
rent and voltage values. As soon as the HMI is switched off or disconnected, the HMI power source is reactivated.
