DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
This description of operation describes the function of circuit boards and other components
in the equipment. It is divided into sections, numbered to correspond to the circuit board
numbers and divisions into function blocks.
AP2 Interference suppressor board
Component positions and circuit diagram for circuit board AP2
The circuit board removes interference signals.
1 MMC unit
The MMC unit can either be fitted to the wire feed unit and/or the power source.
The MMC unit consists of an operator's control panel and a welding data board with a
welding data unit. In some applications the welding data unit is a part of the power source
control board, then there is no welding data board included in the MMC unit.
The power source, the wire feed unit and the welding data unit each have their own
microprocessor for control, with the welding data unit being the central unit in the system. In
addition to storing and issuing welding data, it also exercises overall control of the system
as a whole.
MMC units for the Arc 4001i
A22 is a MMC unit without welding data board. The welding
data unit is a part of the power source control board.
A24 is a MMC unit with welding data board.
MMC unit for the Mig 4001i
A24 is a MMC unit with welding data board.
The Mig 4001i can also be delivered without MMC unit.
The MMC units are described in separate instruction and
service manuals.

15 The power module
The power module converts 3-phase 400 V to the welding voltage. It consists of a single
forward inverter, operating at a switching frequency of 27 kHz.
The mains rectifier bridge 15BR1, the IGBT transistors 15Q1 and 15Q2 and the diode
modules 15D1 and 15D2 are all mounted on a heat sink. Circuit board 15AP1 links them
together. It also carries a smaller circuit board, 15AP2, which provides the functions for the
gate drivers and overvoltage and undervoltage protection.
Block diagram of the power module
If the IGBT transistors 15Q1 and 15Q2, or circuit boards 15AP1, 15AP2 or 20AP1, are
replaced, the gate pulse waveforms must be checked afterwards and the machine must be
soft-started. See page 50.
See the instructions on page 49 concerning mounting of the components on the heat sink
(15Q1, 15Q2, 15BR1, 15D1 and 15D2).
WARNING!
The power module is live at mains voltage.
0 V in the power module is connected to mains voltage.

15AP1 Power board
The power board carries the mains rectifier, the smoothing capacitors, the charging circuit
and the switching circuit.
Circuit board connectors marked NC are n
ot connected.
15AP1:1 Mains rectifier bridge and charging circuit
When the mains power supply is turned on, smoothing capacitors C13-C16 are
charged via rectifier bridge BR2. Contactor 2KM1 closes after about twelve
seconds and connects the mains supply to rectifier bridge 15BR1. See
page 36 for a more detailed description of the starting sequence.
Component description:
BR2 Rectifier for charging current.
C1, C2 Capacitors, restricting the inrush charging current to rectifier
bridge BR2. The current while capacitors C13 - C16 are charging
is about 0.7 A.
C13 - C16 Smoothing capacitors, with a total capacitance of 1000 mF.
R5, R10 Discharging resistors for C1 and C2.
R1 Load-limiting resistor (10 W) for the charging current to C13 -
C16.
R8, R9 Potential divider and discharge resistors for C13 - C16.
R11 - R13 Varistors. Limit voltage peaks that exceeds about 1000 V.
The varistors do not conduct when the voltage is below 480 V
AC RMS, this corresponds to a peak voltage of 680 V.
R14 Varistor.
15BR1 Main rectifier for mains voltage.

15AP1:2 Switching circuit
The power module switching components consist of IGBT transistors 15Q1
and 15Q2, operating at a switching frequency of 27 kHz. The transistors must
never be energised when the gate connections are removed.
The gate pulse waveforms and duration are vital for correct operation. See
also page 20.
If an IGBT transistor (15Q1, 15Q2) has failed, both transistors must be
replaced. Failure of either transistor always subjects rectifier bridge 15BR1 to a
high current surge, which substantially reduces its life. We therefore
recommend that the rectifier bridge should also be replaced if the transistors
have failed. See page 48 for instructions on checking the IGBT transistors.
Diode modules 15D1 and 15D2 each contain two diodes. Both they and the
IGBT transistors must be mounted in accordance with the instructions on page
49.
15AP1:3 Overvoltage and undervoltage protection
The voltage protection function monitors the voltage across smoothing
capacitors C13-C16. See page 21 for a description of operation.
CAUTION!
Do not mix up contacts B and D on circuit board 15AP2.

15AP2 Gate driver board
The gate driver board carries circuitry for gate driving and overvoltage and undervoltage
protection.
15AP2:1 Gate driver stages
WARNING!
Dangerous voltage - mains voltage. Never measure the gate signals when
the power source is connected to the mains supply.
The pulse frequency is 27 kHz, with a maximum pulse width of 39.0 - 40.8 % of
the cycle width. See page 50 for screen traces of waveforms and
measurement instructions.
Transformers TR1 and TR2 are gate driver transformers for galvanic isolation
of the drive circuits from controller board 20AP1. Fuses S1 and S2 protect the
gate driver circuit if the IGBT transistors fail.
Transistor module 15Q1 has a diode connected in series with its emitter: this
transistor has the identification 'GAR' on its case. Transistor 15Q2 has a diode
in series with its collector, and is identified by 'GAL' on its case.
