2SAFETY

Users of ESAB welding equipment have the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that anyone who

works on or near the equipment observes all the relevant safety precautions. Safety precautions

must meet the requirements that apply to this type of welding equipment. The following recommen-

dations should be observed in addition to the standard regulations that apply to the workplace.

All work must be carried out by trained personnel well--acquainted with the operation of the welding

equipment. Incorrect operation of the equipment may lead to hazardous situations which can result

in injury to the operator and damage to the equipment.

1. Anyone who uses the welding equipment must be familiar with:

S its operation

S location of emergency stops

S its function

S relevant safety precautions

S welding

2. The operator must ensure that:

S no unauthorised person is stationed within the working area of the equipment when it is

started up.

S no--one is unprotected when the arc is struck

3. The workplace must:

S be suitable for the purpose

S be free from draughts

4. Personal safety equipment

S Always wear recommended personal safety equipment, such as safety glasses, flame--proof

clothing, safety gloves.

S Do not wear loose--fitting items, such as scarves, bracelets, rings, etc., which could become

trapped or cause burns.

5. General precautions

S Make sure the return cable is connected securely.

S Work on high voltage equipment may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.

S Appropriate fire extinquishing equipment must be clearly marked and close at hand.

S Lubrication and maintenance must not be carried out on the equipment during operation.

WARNING

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING.

ARC WELDING AND CUTTING CAN BE INJURIOUS TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. TAKE PRECAU-

TIONS WHEN WELDING. ASK FOR YOUR EMPLOYER’S SAFETY PRACTICES WHICH SHOULD BE

BASED ON MANUFACTURERS’ HAZARD DATA.

ELECTRIC SHOCK -- Can kill

S Install and earth the welding unit in accordance with applicable standards.

S Do not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet clothing.

S Insulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.

S Ensure your working stance is safe.

FUMES AND GASES -- Can be dangerous to health

S Keep your head out of the fumes.

S Use ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to take fumes and gases away from your breathing zone

and the general area.

ARC RAYS -- Can injure eyes and burn skin.

S Protect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective

clothing.

S Protect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.

FIRE HAZARD

S Sparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.

NOISE -- Excessive noise can damage hearing

S Protect your ears. Use earmuffs or other hearing protection.

S Warn bystanders of the risk.

MALFUNCTION -- Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!

WARNING

This product is intended for industrial use. In a domestic environment this

product may cause radio interference. It is the user’s responsibility to take

7 FUNCTION DESCRIPTION (CIRCUIT BOARD)

Serial

buss

7.1 General

The drive unit consists of two circuit boards, named NME (AP2) and DC DUO (AP1).

(See Page 16 and Page 17 for component positions on the circuit boards.)

The NME board deals with all comm unication with the higher level system via a

two--wire serial bus. It also manages the control panel (KB1) and the display (DY1),

as well as communication with the DC DUO circuit board processor (IC300).

The DC DUO board controls the speed of two DC motors, which may be separately

excited or of permanent magnet type. Speed control is effected either by

measurement of the armature voltage or by tachometer control.

7.2 NME (AP2)

This board is built up around an MC 143150

Neuron processor (IC1), with associated memory,

working memory and program memory (IC15) and

necessary address decoding.

An 8--pole DIP switch (SW1) on the board is

used to set the board’s system addr ess.

As immunity to interference is particularly important,

communication is galvanically isolated through

transformer TR1.

The communication is disconnected by a

single--pole relay, when the board is not powered

but still connected to the system.

Communication with the DC DUO circuit board is via

a parallel bus.

GB

-- 1 9 --

fzb2d2ea

7.3 DC DUO (AP1)

The DC DUO circuit board can be divided into five function blocks:

1. Internal power supply

Generates the necessary power supplies for the electronic circuitry.

2. The processor (IC300)

Controls the motors and communication with the NME circuit board.

The microprocessor controls the motors by m easuring their armature voltages,

the available DC bus voltage and the motor currents.

3. Analogue part

Converts the measured quantities from the power section to voltage levels that

allow A/D conversion.

4. Power section

Consists of two full--wave MOSFET transistor bridges and associated drive

circuits and current shunts.

5. Inputs and outputs

For connection of the gas valve, guards, limit switch and the external start/stop

function.

In the interests of a robust system, the heat sinks on which the power

semiconductors are mounted, also carry a thermistor that monitors the temperature

of the heat sinks.

Protection against short circuits is provided by a high--speed overload protection

circuit that shuts down the power section if a short circuit occurs.
