Maintenance and repair work must be performed by an experienced person, and electrical
work only by a trained electrician. Use only recommended replacement parts.
This service manual is intended for use by technicians with electrical/electronic training for
help in connection with fault-tracing and repair.
The circuit boards are divided into numbered blocks. Component names in the wiring
diagram are listed in the component description.
Use the spare parts list as a guide to where the components are located in the equipment.
The spare parts list is published as a separate document, see the "SPARE PARTS" chapter
in this manual.
This manual contains details of design changes that have been made up to and including
February 2019.
The manual is valid for EWT1000 with serial no. 841- and 905-xxx-xxxx.
NOTE!
The unit is tested by ESAB in a general set-up. The responsibility for safety and
function, of the specific set-up, lies with the integrator.
EWT1000 is designed and tested in accordance with the standards stated in the instruction
manual. On completion of service or repair work, it is the responsibility of the person(s)
performing the work to ensure that the product still complies with the requirements of the
involved standards.
CAUTION!
Read and understand the instruction manual before
installing or operating.
CAUTION!
STATIC ELECTRICITY can damage circuit boards and
electronic components.

3 INTRODUCTION
The EWT 1000 automatic welding equipment is designed for Submerged Arc Welding
(SAW) and MIG/MAG welding of butt and fillet joints.
All other applications are prohibited.
EWT 1000 is roughly divided into these four modules:
• Tractor carriage
• Bobbin holder
• Welding head EWH 1000, covered in service manual 0463 656 001.
• Column including the control unit EAC10, covered in service manual 0463 610 001
NOTE!
For service instruction to the welding head and control unit, see the separate
manuals.

6 WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION!
STATIC ELECTRICITY can damage circuit boards and
electronic components.
• Observe precautions for handling electrostatic
sensitive devices.
• Use proper static-proof bags and boxes.
The EWT 1000 automatic welding equipment consists of a number of function modules. The
circuit board and component names and the wire numbers in the wiring diagram, show to
which module each board/component/wire belongs. The function modules, circuit boards and
components are listed in the component description below.
Components outside modules - e.g. capacitors - are named such as C1 - C99, connectors
XS1 - XS99 (S = socket), XT1 - XT99 (T = terminal).
Circuit boards within each module have names such as 20AP1 - 20AP99.
20 = module association, 1-69
AP = circuit board
1 = individual identification number, 0-99
Transistors within particular modules have identification numbers such as 15Q1 - 15Q99.
15 = module association, 1-69
Q = transistor
1 = individual identification number, 0-99
NOTE!
Travel motor encoder supply voltage: 5VDC.
