changed using Up/Down arrow keys to the right of the time display in
one (1) millisecond (0.001 second) increments. As each of these keys
are pressed, the time setting will increase or decrease at a faster rate.
The time display is used to display both the desired time setting and
the actual weld time.
In normal operating modes, the desired setting and the actual weld
time will be the same or very close. When this is the case, the display
does not change during or after a weld.
However, if an error condition occurs, the proper error code will be
displayed on the front panel display. This will typically happen if a weld
is aborted early.
3.3.3 Lift distance and plunge distance
parameters
•
These mechanical parameters must be set on the connected
NS40 or Light Duty drawn arc gun.
•
See the operating instructions of the corresponding weld gun for
the settings.
•
See the gun operating instructions and diagrams below
respectively for the guide values for the welding method.
The maximum lift height is
0.098” (2.5mm) at +/- 10% or rated input voltage.
Maximum lift height (at +/-10% of rated input voltage, NS40 and
NS20HD):
2.5mm (0.1”)
.
Proper gun lift settings are as follows:
1. All studs within the weld range: maximum of 2mm lift.
2. The plunge also needs to be appropriately set.
3. When the E009 error appears, the lift and plunge settings
should be reviewed.
4. If the error is E004 or E007, it generally means no pilot arc.
5. Check input voltage from unit control panel using F18 and read
capacitor voltage.
6. If the lift capability is marginal, i.e. it lifts a low lift height, but fails to
lift at slightly higher lift height, then consult your Nelson Rep.
