This equipment is built in compliance with standard IEC-
EN60974-10.
The equipment should be installed and used in accordance
with the information below to achieve electromagnetic
compatibility. The limits required by IEC-EN60974-10 may not
be adequate to completely eliminate interference when the
affected equipment is in close proximity or has a high degree
of sensitivity. In such cases it may be necessary to use other
measures to further reduce interference
warning
this Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential
locations where the electrical power is provided by the public
low-voltage supply system. There may be potential difficulties
in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in those locations,
due to conducted as well as radiated disturbances.
!
installation and use
The user is responsible for installing and using the arc welding
equipment according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
If electromagnetic disturbances are detected, then it shall be
the responsibility of the user resolve the situation with the
technical assistance of the manufacturer.
In some cases this remedial action may be as simple as
earthing the welding circuit (see note). In other cases, it could
involve constructing an electromagnetic screen enclosing the
welding power source and the work complete with
associated filters
In all cases electromagnetic disturbances shall be reduced to
the point where they are no longer troublesome.
note
: The welding circuit may or may not be earthed for
safety reasons. Changing the earthing arrangements should
only be authorized by a person who is competent to assess
whether the changes will increase the risk of injury, for
example, by allowing parallel welding current return paths,
which may damage the earth circuits of other equipment.
Further guidance is given in IEC/TS 620812.
assessment of area
Before installing arc welding equipment the user shall make
an assessment of potential electromagnetic problems in the
surrounding area. The following shall be taken into account:
A) other supply cables, control cables, signalling and
telephone cables, above, below and adjacent to the arc
welding equipment;
B) radio and television transmitters and receivers;
C) computer and other control equipment;
D) safety critical equipment, for example guarding of industrial
equipment;
E) the health of the people around, for example the use of
pacemakers and hearing aids;
F) equipment used for calibration or measurement;
G) the immunity of other equipment in the environment. The
user shall ensure that other equipment being used in the
environment is compatible. This may require additional
protection measures;
H) the time of day that welding or other activities are to be
carried out.
The size of the surrounding area to be considered will depend
on the structure of the building and other activities that are
taking place. The surrounding area may extend beyond the
boundaries of the premises.
methods of reducing emissions
maintenance of the arc welding equipment
The arc welding equipment should be routinely maintained
according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. All access
and service doors and covers should be closed and properly
fastened when the arc welding equipment is in operation. The
arc welding equipment should not be modified in any way,
except for those changes and adjustments covered in the
manufacturer’s instructions.
welding cables
The welding cables should be kept as short as possible and
should be positioned close together, running at or close to the
floor level.
equipotential bonding
Bonding of all metallic objects in the surrounding area should
be considered. However, metallic objects bonded to the work
piece will increase the risk that the operator could receive
an electric shock by touching these metallic objects and the
electrode at the same time. The operator should be insulated
from all such bonded metallic objects.
earthing of the workpiece
Where the workpiece is not bonded to earth for electrical
safety, nor connected to earth because of its size and position,
for example, ship’s hull or building steelwork, a connection
bonding the workpiece to earth may reduce emissions in
some, but not all instances. Care should be taken to prevent
the earthing of the workpiece increasing the risk of injury to
users or damage to other electrical equipment.
Where necessary, the connection of the workpiece to earth
should be made by a direct connection to the workpiece, but in
some countries where direct connection is not permitted, the
bonding should be achieved by suitable capacitance, selected
according to national regulations.
screening and shielding
Selective screening and shielding of other cables and
equipment in the surrounding area may alleviate problems
of interference. Screening of the entire welding area may be
considered for special applications.
