1-2. Induction Heating Hazards

The symbols shown below are used throughout this manual

to call attention to and identify possible hazards. When you

see the symbol, watch out, and follow the related instructions

to avoid the hazard. The safety information given below is

only a summary of the more complete safety information

found in the Safety Standards listed in Section 1-5. Read and

follow all Safety Standards.

Only qualified persons should install, operate, maintain, and

repair this unit.

During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away.

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks

or severe burns. The power circuit and output bus

bars or connections are electrically live whenever

the output is on. The input power circuit and machine

internal circuits are also live when power is on. Incorrectly installed or

improperly grounded equipment is a hazard.

D Do not touch live electrical parts.

D Enclose any connecting bus bars and coolant fittings to prevent

unintentional contact.

D Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection.

D Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or

covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work or

ground.

D Additional safety precautions are required when any of the following

electrically hazardous conditions are present: in damp locations or

while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such as floors, grat-

ings, or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting,

kneeling, or lying; or when there is a high risk of unavoidable or acci-

dental contact with the workpiece or ground. For these conditions,

see ANSI Z49.1 listed in Safety Standards. And, do not work alone!

D Disconnect input power before installing or servicing this equip-

ment. Lockout/tagout input power according to OSHA 29 CFR

1910.147 (see Safety Standards).

D Use only nonconductive coolant hoses with a minimum length of 18

inches (457 mm) to provide isolation.

D Properly install, ground, and operate this equipment according to its

Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local codes.

D Always verify the supply ground − check and be sure that input pow-

er cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in

disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly grounded

receptacle outlet.

D When making input connections, attach proper grounding

conductor first − double-check connections.

D Keep cords dry, free of oil and grease, and protected from hot metal

and sparks.

D Frequently inspect input power cord and ground conductor for dam-

age or bare wiring – replace immediately if damaged – bare wiring

can kill.

D Turn off all equipment when not in use.

D Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or repaired cables.

D Do not drape cables over your body.

D Do not touch power circuit if you are in contact with the work, ground,

or another power circuit from a different machine.

wet locations.

SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists in inverter power

sources AFTER removal of input power.

D Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input

capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Section before

touching any internal parts.

Induction Heating of certain materials, adhesives,

and fluxes can produce fumes and gases. Breathing

these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your

health.

FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous.

D Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.

D If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation to re-

move fumes and gases. The recommended way to determine

adequate ventilation is to sample for the composition and quantity of

fumes and gases to which personnel are exposed.

D If ventilation is poor, wear an approved air-supplied respirator.

D Read and understand the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and the man-

ufacturer’s instructions for adhesives, coatings, cleaners,

consumables, coolants, degreasers, fluxes, and metals.

D Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing

an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watchperson near-

by. Fumes and gases from heating can displace air and lower the

oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is

safe.

D Do not heat in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying oper-

ations. The heat can react with vapors to form highly toxic and

irritating gases.

D Do not overheat coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or

cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the

heated area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-

supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these

elements can give off toxic fumes if overheated. See coating SDS

for temperature information.

1-6. EMF Information

Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized electric

and magnetic fields (EMF). The current from arc welding (and allied pro-

cesses including spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, and

induction heating operations) creates an EMF field around the welding

circuit. EMF fields can interfere with some medical implants, e.g. pace-

makers. Protective measures for persons wearing medical implants

have to be taken. For example, restrict access for passers−by or con-

duct individual risk assessment for welders. All welders should use the

following procedures in order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from

the welding circuit:

1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using a

cable cover.

2. Do not place your body between welding cables. Arrange cables

to one side and away from the operator.

3. Do not coil or drape cables around your body.

4. Keep head and trunk as far away from the equipment in the weld-

ing circuit as possible.

5. Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as

possible.

6. Do not work next to, sit or lean on the welding power source.

7. Do not weld whilst carrying the welding power source or wire

feeder.

About Implanted Medical Devices:

Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the

device manufacturer before performing or going near arc welding, spot

welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations. If

cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recom-

mended.

3 Coolant Hose

4 Dual Output Cable Coolant Hose

Connect output cables to output #1 and

output #2 on power source.

Coolant hoses between output cables and

cooler must be connected in series for dual

output operation. Connect dual output

coolant hose between output cable #1 and

output cable #2 fittings by pushing coolant

hose fitting onto output cable fitting.

Connect quick-connect fitting on both

coolant hoses from cooler to remaining

output cable fittings.

To remove coolant hoses, grasp black ring

on coolant hose fitting and pull away from

output cable fitting . Coolant hose fitting will

separate from output cable fitting.

. Fittings have spring loaded valves

inside that close when fitting is discon-

nected from an output cable fitting to

minimize coolant leaks.

. Heating cables must be the same

length: 30ft (9.1 m), 50 ft (15.2 m), 80ft

(24.2 m), or 140 ft (42.7 m).

. Total length of heating and extension

cables must not exceed 360 ft (110 m).

The extension cable is counted twice

the length because it has a supply and

return hose.
