Tig Process:

In TIG welding process, gas usage depends on cross-sectional area of the nozzle. For comonnly used torches:

Helium: 14-24 l/min

Argon: 7-16 l/min

Notice: Excessive flow rates causes turbulence in the gas stream which may aspirate atmospheric contamination into

the welding pool.

Notice: A cross wind or draft moving can disrupt the shielding gas coverage, in the interest of saving of protective gas

use screen to block air flow.

End of life

At end of life of product, it has to be disposal for recycling in accordance with Directive 2012/19/EU (WEEE), information

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

01/11

This machine has been designed in accordance with all relevant directives and standards. However, it may still generate

electromagnetic disturbances that can affect other systems like telecommunications (telephone, radio, and television) or

other safety systems. These disturbances can cause safety problems in the affected systems. Read and understand

this section to eliminate or reduce the amount of electromagnetic disturbance generated by this machine.

This machine has been designed to operate in an industrial area. The operator must install and operate this

equipment as described in this manual. If any electromagnetic disturbances are detected the operator must

put in place corrective actions to eliminate these disturbances with, if necessary, assistance from Lincoln

Electric. This machine is not in accordance with IEC 61000-3-12. If it is powered by a low voltage public

distribution network in the connection responsibility of the installer or user of equipment, consultation, if necessary, with

the electricity service distributor.

Before installing the machine, the operator must check the work area for any devices that may malfunction because of

electromagnetic disturbances. Consider the following.

Input and output cables, control cables, and telephone cables that are in or adjacent to the work area and the

machine.

Radio and/or television transmitters and receivers. Computers or computer controlled equipment.

Safety and control equipment for industrial processes. Equipment for calibration and measurement.

Personal medical devices like pacemakers and hearing aids.

Check the electromagnetic immunity for equipment operating in or near the work area. The operator must be sure

that all equipment in the area is compatible. This may require additional protection measures.

The dimensions of the work area to consider will depend on the construction of the area and other activities that are

taking place.

Consider the following guidelines to reduce electromagnetic emissions from the machine.

Connect the machine to the input supply according to this manual. If disturbances occur if may be necessary to take

additional precautions such as filtering the input supply.

The output cables should be kept as short as possible and should be positioned together. If possible connect the

work piece to ground in order to reduce the electromagnetic emissions. The operator must check that connecting the

work piece to ground does not cause problems or unsafe operating conditions for personnel and equipment.

Shielding of cables in the work area can reduce electromagnetic emissions. This may be necessary for special

applications.

WARNING

The Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential locations where the electrical power is provided by the public

low-voltage supply system. There can be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in those locations,

due to conducted as well as radio-frequency disturbances.

WARNING

This equipment must be used by qualified personnel. Be sure that all installation, operation, maintenance and repair

procedures are performed only by qualified person. Read and understand this manual before operating this equipment.

Failure to follow the instructions in this manual could cause serious personal injury, loss of life, or damage to this

equipment. Read and understand the following explanations of the warning symbols. Lincoln Electric is not responsible

for damages caused by improper installation, improper care or abnormal operation.

WARNING: This symbol indicates that instructions must be followed to avoid serious personal injury,

loss of life, or damage to this equipment. Protect yourself and others from possible serious injury or

death.

READ AND UNDERSTAND INSTRUCTIONS: Read and understand this manual before operating this

equipment. Plasma cutting or gouging can be hazardous. Failure to follow the instructions in this

manual could cause serious personal injury, loss of life, or damage to this equipment.

ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL: Welding equipment generates high voltages. Do not touch the

electrode, work clamp, or connected work pieces when this equipment is on. Insulate yourself from the

electrode, work clamp, and connected work pieces.

ELECTRICALLY POWERED EQUIPMENT: Turn off input power using the disconnect switch at the

fuse box before working on this equipment. Ground this equipment in accordance with local electrical

regulations.

ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS MAY BE DANGEROUS: Electric current flowing through any

conductor creates electric and magnetic fields (EMF). EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers,

and welders having a pacemaker shall consult their physician before operating this equipment.

CE COMPLIANCE: This equipment complies with the European Community Directives.

ARTIFICIAL OPTICAL RADIATION: According with the requirements in 2006/25/EC Directive and

EN 12198 Standard, the equipment is a category 2. It makes mandatory the adoption of Personal

Protective Equipments (PPE) having filter with a protection degree up to a maximum of 15, as required

by EN169 Standard.

WORK MATERIALS CAN BURN: Cutting generates a large amount of heat. Hot surfaces and

materials in work area can cause serious burns. Use gloves and pliers when touching or moving

materials in the work area.

EQUIPMENT WEIGHT OVER 30kg: Move this equipment with care and with the help of another

person. Lifting may be dangerous for your physical health.

CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IF DAMAGED: Use only compressed gas cylinders containing the correct

shielding gas for the process used and properly operating regulators designed for the gas and pressure

used. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained to a fixed support. Do not move or

transport gas cylinders with the protection cap removed. Do not allow the torch, work clamp or any

other electrically live part to touch a gas cylinder. Gas cylinders must be located away from areas

where they may be subjected to physical damage or the cutting process including sparks and heat

sources.

English English

Cutting sparks can cause explosion or fire. Keep

flammables away from cutting. Do not cut near

flammables. Have a fire extinguisher nearby, and have

a watch person ready to use it. Do not cut on drums or

any closed container.

The plasma arc can cause injury and burns. Keep your

body away from nozzle and plasma arc. Turn off

power before disassembling torch. Do not grip material

near cutting path. Wear complete body protection.

Electric shock from torch or wiring can kill. Wear dry

insulating gloves. Do not wear wet or damaged gloves.

Protect yourself from electric shock by insulating

yourself from work and ground. Disconnect input plug

or power before working on machine.

Breathing cutting fumes can be hazardous to your

health. Keep your head out of the fumes. Use forced

ventilation or local exhaust to remove the fumes. Use

ventilating fan to remove fumes.

Arc rays can burn eyes and injure skin. Wear hat and

safety glasses. Use ear protection and button shirt

collar. Use welding helmet with correct shade of filter.

Wear complete body protection.

Become trained and read the instructions before

working on the machine or cutting.

Do not remove or paint over (cover) the label.

SAFETY MARK: This equipment is suitable for supplying power for cutting operations carried out in an

environment with increased hazard of electric shock.

The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes and/or improvements in design without upgrade at the same time
