ML-2350AF/2351AF

Thank you for purchasing our YAG Laser Welder ML-2350AF/2351AF.

ML-2350AF-CE and ML-2351AF-CE are the air-cooled versions of the standard

ML-2350A-CE and ML-2351A-CE, respectively. This operation manual describes only the

difference of the air-cooled versions from the standard ones.

See the operation manual of the standard version for how to use, such as operation

method.

1. Difference from the Standard Specifications

The laser power supply, oscillator head and cooler are accommodated in one body.

Transportation and installation are easy because the piping for city water is not

necessary.

The air-cooled system does not waste water resources.

How to operate is just the same as the standard ML-2350A-CE and ML-2351A-CE.

Max. input current 6.5A

Max. apparent power 4.5kVA

Power consumption Maximum: 3.5kW / Stand-by: 0.49kW

Breaker rated current (to

be supplied by customers)

For the power supply side, we earnestly recommend

using a leakage breaker with the rated current of 10 A

or more, which is applicable to harmonics and surges.

Ground Class C (ground resistance: 10 Ωmax.)

Cooler

Heat exchange method Forced air-cooled

Operating room

temperature

5°–30°C (40°C max. cooling water temp.)

The temperature may varies depending on LAMP

INPUT POWER (%) of 80% or higher and installation

conditions. Refer to the Cooling Capability Chart below.

(Provide the provision to measure the difference

between room and coolant temperatures.)

NOTE: Heat of 2.5

kW (2150

kcal/h) is discharged for the maximum rating.

The ML-2350AF/2351AF eliminates city water to improve the factory environment.

Schedule setting

Up to 32 schedules can be set by combining

・Laser output waveform

・Laser energy for upper/lower limit judgment

・Number of outputs per second

・Number of repeated outputs

Measurement function Laser energy (J)

Average power (W)

Counter Displays total number of outputs (9 digits)

Displays the number of acceptable outputs (9 digits)

Length of cable Standard 3m cable

Others Mass Approx. 250

Dimensions 990 (H) x 521.1 (W) x 995 (D) mm

*1) Under the condition that laser output energy is at least 5

J per pulse and peak power is at

least 1

kW.

②Cooling Capability

The chart at left depicts the

cooling capability at 100%

duty cycle. Do not use in

room temperature exceed-

ing the line shown.

See the examples below

for less than 100% duty

cycle:

[Example 1]

Letting LAMP INPUT POWER be 60%, and “1-s laser output—2-s pause” be repeated.

60 x 1/3 = 20

LAMP INPUT POWER of 20% gives the room temperature of about 36C.

Keep room temperature 36C or less.

[Example 2]

Letting LAMP INPUT POWER be 80%, and “3-s laser output—2-s pause” be repeated.

80 x 3/5 = 48

LAMP INPUT POWER of 48% gives the room temperature of about 33.5C.

Keep room temperature 33.5C or less.

3. Maintenance

(1) Maintenance Parts and Standard Intervals of

Inspection/Replacement

In addition to maintenance parts for the standard model, perform inspection

periodically referring to the following table.

*1: The operation interval means the maintenance time or expected life of the part,

and is different from the guarantee period.

*2: Part replacement is performed when any damage or defect is found or the

usable period ends.
