5.4 Verification of the Gas Valve,
SOL1, Drive Circuitry
CAUTION
Before performing any portion of the procedure
below, make certain the unit is placed in the initial
set up condition as described
in section 11.4.1
"Preparation".
1) Verify the voltage between the PIN3 (Positive
[+]) and PIN4 (Negative [-]) of connector CN11
on PCB3 (WK-5548) while you press the torch
switch while in TIG Mode. (The capacity of the
voltmeter should be more than 50VDC.) The
location of connector CN11 of PCB3 (WK-
5548) is indicated in Figure 8. When you mea-
sure the above voltage, do not remove the
connector. Conduct the measurement while
the connector plug and receptacle are still con-
nected.
Figure 11-13: Verification of the SOL1
2) Using the measurement taken above, follow
the chart below for possible failure modes.
Table 11-4: Verification of the SOL1
3) When verifying the voltage, confirm that the AC
input voltage remain within the operating range
of the unit.
(The AC input does not drop below 180VAC).
5.5 Verification of the primary
Diode (D1)
CAUTION
Before performing any portion of the procedure
below, make certain the unit is placed in the initial
set up condition as described
in section 11.4.1
"Preparation".
1) Verify the characteristic of the primary diode,
D1, using a diode tester.
2) Refer to Table 11-5 and Figure 11-14 for
the checkpoints on D1.
