RECALIBRATION PROCEDURE OF VA-MET
NOTE: All diagrams and function descriptions below are valid for both VA-Met12 and VA-Met13
unless otherwise specified.
V/A-meter for measuring of welding voltage or current (readout is selected by switch S1 on the front of
meter) may be installed as optional accessory.
V/A-meter is supplied with 11VAC; input signal for current is delivered from standard 60mV shunt,
voltage is measured directly across welding rectifier output.
Depending on required current range (determined by applied shunt rating) – the jumpers X3&X4 on
the PCB must be properly arranged and the reference voltage U-REF must be adjusted by R4 – as
indicated in the diagram herewith (see the table).
Voltage indication is adjusted by potentiometer R1 on the PCB.
(Note: voltage adjusting is to be made only when jumpers and U-REF setting is completed!)
Recommended voltage-metering range is: 0V to –40V. (Calibration is performed for –25V).
Recommended current input range is: 0mV to +60mV. (Calibration for 60mV)
V/A meter has “HOLD” function – i.e. after stop of welding, there is memorised the last displayed value
(current or voltage – depending on S1 position).
There is also possibility to compensate the voltage drop on current wires – i.e. to get indication of the
actual welding arc voltage.
Compensation is adjusted by potentiometer R28 (on the bottom side of PCB); when utmost CCW
position – there is no compensation, turning CW increases the compensation step.
NOTE: Factory setting is “no compensation”, if necessary – use reference voltmeter and artificial load
– so as to adjust compensation depending on wire length.
