Power Supply
CAUTION: Do not connect the Thermocouple Welder to the power line at this time. Check the voltage
label on the line cord. At the time of shipment, the voltage for which the Thermocouple Welder was
connected was marked on the line cord. Do not connect the Thermocouple Welder to any voltage without
properly changing the internal connections.
The TC-W100A was assembled at the factory for operation at a specific line voltage. If the TC-W100A is
used on a line voltage other than the one for which it is connected, serious damage can result. Most
Thermocouple Welders are shipped from the factory wired for 115 volt, 50/60 Hz operation.
To check whether the TC-W100A is connected for 115 or 230 volts, follow steps below:
•
Turn the WIRE GAUGE SELECTOR fully counter-clockwise to 40. Verify that the POWER switch
is in the “OFF” position and that the line cord is disconnected.
•
If power was previously applied, wait one minute to ensure that the Capacitor bank is fully
discharged.
•
Loosen the four screws which secure the cover and lift the cover straight up to remove it. The
different transformer connections and circuit breakers for each specific line voltage are illustrated in
figure 2-1.
•
Replace the cover and tighten the screws. Change the line cord plug, if necessary. If necessary,
change or replace the voltage label on the line cord to show the correct operating voltage.
AMADA WELD TECH recommends that the Thermocouple Welder (TC-W100A) be installed in a well
ventilated area, free of dirt and moisture. The Thermocouple Welder is a self-contained unit designed to
minimize installation and setup time.
Connect the Purge Gas Inlet Port, located on the rear panel of the TC-W100A, to a PROPERLY FILTERED
ARGON GAS SUPPLY using 0.25” O.D. x 0.17” I.D., 120 PSI, plastic tubing. Turn ON the purge gas
supply. Set the Pressure Regulator to 50 PSIG. Set the Flow Regulator for 3 cubic feet per hour. Repair
leaks, if necessary.
