Solter aeroprocess 2000, Instruction Manual

Page: 29 / 52

Connect the gas tube to the rear nozzle of the power unit and the other end of the tube to the gas cylinder flow regu-
lator. Be sure to use the proper gas mixture for the material to be welded. Set the gas flow rate to a typical value of 8
- 10 l/min. A wrong flow setting can cause defects in the weld bead. Remember to close the gas bottle valve when
you finish welding.
USE OF ELECTRIC GENERATORS
The equipments are prepared to work with an electric generator. However, these generators must meet certain requi-
rements. It is recommended to use three-phase generators with a constant power of at least 25KVA. If the generator
does not have enough power or the output voltage is outside the machine’s operating limits, this could affect the sta-
bility of the welding arc and, therefore, the quality of the weld joint. In the worst case, it may even cause damage to
the machine.
Do not use more than one welding machine with the same generator. Sudden changes in charge level may affect the
stability of the welding arc.
Start the machine by turning the switch on the back of the power unit. During the start up sequence, the equipment
performs an internal test. If a fault is detected, the associated code will appear on the front panel display.
Always start or stop the machine using the rear switch, NOT by plugging or unplugging it from the mains
COMMISSIONING OF AEROPROCESS 2000
Connect the welding machine to a socket with earth wire (the plug must have an earth connection).
Make sure that the voltage is within the range of /- 15%. Outside this voltage range, the machine may mal-
function.
Depending on the type of welding that is going to be used (MMA, TIG, MIG-MAG), you must connect the earth
clamp, the electrode holder clamp, TIG torch or MIG-MAG torch.
Select the polarity depending on the type of application and the wire that is going to be used. To select this polarity,
verify and/or change the connections that are inside the wire coil compartment.
Turn the switch located on the back of the machine.
COMMISSIONING OF AEROPROCESS 3200
Assemble the front and rear wheels on the equipment (see section handling and assembly of the machine).
Connect the machine to a three-phase 400Vac mains. Make sure that the power of the mains is enough for the con-
sumption of the equipment. Select the desired polarity.
Depending on the type of welding that is going to be used (MMA, TIG, MIG-MAG), you must connect the earth
clamp, the electrode holder clamp, TIG torch or MIG-MAG torch.
In this model, the polarity can not be changed.
Turn the switch located on the back of the machine.
COMMISSIONING OF AEROPROCESS 3220
1- Assemble the front and rear wheels on the equipment (see section handling and assembly of the machine).
2- Position and fasten the bracket for Aerofeed 5 (56213) to the power unit (the power unit has the screws incorpora-
ted to fasten the bracket).
2- Position the winder above the Aerofeed 5 bracket (56213).
2- Unscrew the metal bracket behind the plastic rolls holder. Through this bracket, you must pass the interconnecting
wiring between the power unit and the AEROFEED unit. This clamp secures and maintains the connection aligned.
