READ THIS FIRST

This service manual is intended for use by technicians with electrical/electronic training to

help in connection with fault-tracing and repair.

Use the connection diagram as a form of index for the description of operation and the

component description. The circuit board is divided into numbered blocks, which are de-

scribed individually in more detail in the description of operation. All important component

names in the connection diagram are listed in the component description.

This manual contains details of all design that have been made up to and including July

2002. Rights reserved to alter specifications without notice.

NOTE! All warranty undertakings given by the supplier cease to apply if the customer at-

tempts to rectify any faults on the machine during the warranty period.

0740 800 112 0207 - 4 -

THE DTF180 IST DESIGNED AND TESTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD EN 60 974-1 (IEC 974-1).

ON COMPLETION OF SERVICE OR REPAIR WORK, IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF

THE PERSON(S) ETC. PERFORMING THE WORK TO ENSURE THAT THE

PRODUCT DOES NOT DEPART FROM THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE ABOVE

STANDARD.

WARNING

ARC WELDING AND CUTTING CAN BE INJURIOUS TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS.

TAKE PRECAUTIONS WHEN WELDING. ASK FOR YOUR EMPLOYER’S SAFETY

PRACTICES WHICH SHOULD BE BASED ON MANUFACTURERS’ HAZARD DATA:

ELECTRIC SHOCK - Can kill

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

• Do not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet

clothing.

• Insulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.

• Ensure your working stance is safe

FUMES AND GASES - Can be dangerous to health

• Keep your head out of fumes.

• Use ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and gases from your

breathing zone and the general area.

ARC RAYS - Can injure eyes and burn skin

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

protective clothing.

• Protect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.

FIRE HAZARD

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

materials nearby.

NOISE - Excessive noise can damage hearing

• Protect your ears. Use ear defenders or other hearing protection.

• Warn bystanders of the risk.

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

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE

INSTALLING OR OPERATING.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!

PRINCIPAL DIAGRAM DTF180

The DTF180 is a primary-switched power unit, using a power-factor-controller (PFC) in

boost topology followed by a full-bridge switched mode power supply (SMPS). A high fre-

quency transformer (TC01) isolates the mains potential from the welding potential. After

high frequency rectification (V01-V04) the polarity of the output current is controlled by an

alternating switch (V05, half-bridge topology).

Primary PFC and SMPS uses parallel-connected MOSFET on AP02 as switching ele-

ments, the polarity reversing half-bridge for the welding current uses IGBT-technology.

The switching frequency of PFC is about 70 kHz (pulse-wide-modulation), of SMPS about

102 kHz (phase-shifting-modulation). The frequency of the welding current while AC-wel-

ding is controlled to 50 Hz.

A high voltage ignition unit is used for ignition and stabilising the arc while welding. AP01

and AP03 control the power stages and ignition unit.

AP00 COMPONENT POSITIONS

AP00 is connected to mains voltage

and works as an interference suppres-

sion filter. Mains cable XS01 is con-

nected on PE, N, L of X1. X9 and X8

connects the mains voltage to mains

switch QF01.

WARNING! The circuit and its parts are connecteed to mains voltage potential.

AP00 CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

WARNING! The circuit and its parts are connecteed to mains voltage potential.

In case of replacement of single components it is important for security and electroma-

gnetical compability to use only original parts.

Note: pc-board AP00 is only used in the first version of the DTF 180. In the second ver-

sion of the DTF 180, the mains filter was implemented on to the new pc-board AP03

(HD41WRZ).
