5) voltage pulsation power = OFF (by default)
a) 0[OFF] ... 80% (change step 5%)
6) voltage pulsation frequency = 20Hz (by default)
a) 5 ... 500 Hz (change step 1 Hz)
7) pulse/pause ratio (duty cycle) – it is the percentage of the current pulse to the period of
repetition of these pulses = 50% (by default)
a) 20 ... 80% (change step 5%)
8. GENERATOR OPERATION
The power supply is suitable for generator operation, provided as follows:
When working with
an electrode
Set current value for
MMA and TIG
When working with a wire
diameter of
MIG/MAG
Minimum generator
power
Ø2 not more than 80А not more than Ø 0.6 mm 3.0 kVA
Ø3 not more than 120А not more than Ø 0.8 mm 4.5 kVA
Ø4 not more than 160А not more than Ø 1.0 mm 6.0 kVA
Ø5 not more than 200А not more than Ø 1.0 mm 7.7 kVA
Ø 6 fusible not more than 250А not more than Ø 1.2 mm 10 kVA
Ø 6 fusible not more than 270А not more than Ø 1.2 mm 12.0 kVA
Ø 6 not more than 350А not more than Ø 1.4 mm 16.0 kVA
For trouble-free operation! The output voltage of the generator must not exceed the
permissible limits:
- 160-260V (for StandardTIG-160/200/250);
- 320-440V for all three phases (for StandardTIG -270/350-400V).
9. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Caution! Before opening the unit, be sure to turn it off, remove the mains plug.
Allow the internal circuits of the unit to discharge (about 5 minutes), and only then proceed
to other actions. When leaving, install a sign prohibiting to start the unit.
In order to keep the unit operational for many years, be sure to follow several rules:
- carry out a safety inspection at specified intervals (see Section "Safety instructions");
- with intensive use, we recommend that you blow the unit with dry compressed air every six
months.
Caution! Blowing from a short distance can result in damage to the electronic
components;
- if there is a lot of dust, clean the cooling system ducts manually.
