SET-UP AND SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURES

89210000

Problem

Possible Cause

Possible Remedy

Contactor overheating (air
not circulating properly).
Overheat indicators “ON”

Clogged filter

Clean filter thoroughly
(replace if necessary)

Fan not operating, or not
operating efficiently

Replace fan

Cannot initiate a start
sequence

No open circuit voltage
present

See proceeding problem

Manual remote control “Start/
Stop” pendant or jumper
not connected to “Remote
Control” receptacle on control
panel

Remote control pendant or
jumper connector must be
in receptacle

Break in remote control “Start/
Stop” pendant cable

Repair/replace cable

Defective “Start/Stop” switch
on panel

Replace switch

Contactor unit in high
temperature shutdown

Allow contactor unit to
cool/check fan and filter

Defective MCCB*

Replace MCCB*

Erratic or uncontrollable
arc

Constant current (CC) constant
potential (CP) toggle switch on
MCCB improperly set

Reread Section entitled “
Starting Conditions“

Using improper torch
operating conditions for
electrode size (diameter)

See Chart 1 for proper
operating conditions

Insufficient arc voltage
due to “drooping curve”
characteristics of “CP” power
source

Set open circuit voltage
higher at power source.
(Reread Section entitled “
Starting Conditions“)

Ammeter does not register

Break in interconnect cable
which links contactor to
controller

Repair/replace interconnect
cable

Loose connections on shunt
on contactor unit

Check/repair connection

Connector(s) J4/J5/J6
improperly or not firmly
connected on MCCB

Check connector(s) for
solid, proper fit
