5. Starting and operating
The instructions of this chapter are supposed to guide you in the operation of the machine and
lead you during the appropriate starting of the machine.
This includes:
the safe operation of the machine;
using all possible options of the machine;
economic operation of the machine.
5.1. Security
advice
The machine only has to be introduced and used by skilled persons. For their qualification
they can pass an exam of plastic welding according to DVS and DVGW.
In cases of danger for man and machine, immediately press the emergency switch, turn off
the main plug or pull the power plug.
Having finished the welding work and during intervals you have to turn off the machine.
Furthermore you have to control that no unauthorized person can use the machine.
The operation on building sites is only allowed via power distributor with FI security switch
according to VDE 0100.
Observe the environmental conditions:
The welding must not be carried out with direct solar radiation, if necessary erect welding
shield.
With temperatures below 5° C, measurements have to be taken:
If necessary erect welding tent or heat pipe ends.
The device ESI 4000 is connected to the local mains supply 230 V / 16 A / 50 Hz resp. to a
generator (Chapter: 5.1.1.).
5.1.1. How to work while using a generator
The nominal capacity of the generator is depending upon the size of the sockets, the
connecting circumstances, the environmental conditions, the generator type and the
adjustment traits. The nominal capacity of the generator is single-phase, 220 – 240 V / 50 – 60
Hz.
Socket size:
Generator type:
< d 160 mm
3,2 kW mechanically controlled
> d 160 mm
4,0 kW mechanically controlled
5,0 kW electronically controlled
Always start the generator first, connect the device ESI 4000 with a idling voltage being
adjusted up to 230 V.
After the welding always detach the ESI 4000 first, afterwards switch off the generator.
During welding do not connect any other consumer to the generator at the same
time
