Ask for your employer's safety practices which should be based on manufacturers' hazard data.

ELECTRIC SHOCK - Can kill

SInstall and earth the welding unit in accordance with applicable standards.

SDo not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet clothing.

SInsulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.

SEnsure your working stance is safe.

FUMES AND GASES - Can be dangerous to health

SKeep your head out of the fumes.

SUse ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to take fumes and gases away from your breathing zone

and the general area.

ARC RAYS - Can injure eyes and burn skin.

SProtect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective

clothing.

SProtect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.

FIRE HAZARD

SSparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.

NOISE - Excessive noise can damage hearing

SProtect your ears. Use earmuffs or other hearing protection.

SWarn bystanders of the risk.

MALFUNCTION - Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!

ESAB can provide you with all necessary welding protection and accessories.

WARNING!

Do not use the power source for thawing frozen pipes.

CAUTION!

Read and understand the instruction manual before

installing or operating.

CAUTION!

4 INSTALLATION

The installation must be executed by a professional.

Note!

Mains supply requirements

High power equipment may, due to the primary current drawn from the mains supply, influence the

power quality of the grid. Therefore connection restrictions or requirements regarding the

maximum permissible mains impedance or the required minimum supply capacity at the interface

point to the public grid may apply for some types of equipment (see technical data). In this case it

is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation with the

distrubution network operator if necessary, that the equipment may be connected.

4.1 Location

Position the welding power source such that its cooling air inlets and outlets are not

obstructed.

4.2 Mains power supply

Check that the welding power source is connected to the

correct mains power supply voltage, and that it is

protected by the correct fuse size.

A protective earth connection must be made in

accordance with regulations.

5.4 TIG-welding

Before using the Arc 1500i/2200i for TIG welding it must be equipped with:

Sa TIG torch

Sa cylinder of suitable welding gas

Sa welding gas regulator (suitable gas regulator)

Stungsten electrodes

Ssuitable filler metal, if necessary

5.5 MMA-svetsning

Connection of welding and return cable

The welding power source has two terminals, one plus and one minus pole, for the con

nection of the welding and the return cable. Connect the welding cable to the pole indi

cated on the package of the electrode to be used.

Connect the return cable to the other terminal. Fit the earth clamp of the return cable

to the work-piece and make sure there is good contact between the work-piece and the

return cable terminal on the welding power source.

5.6 Overheating protection

The power source has two thermal overload trips which operate if the internal

temperature becomes too high. A fault code is shown in the panel. They reset

automatically when the temperature has fallen.

5.7 Connection to cooling unit

(only valid for CaddytTig 2200i)

Only those persons who have appropriate electrical

knowledge (authorized personnel) may remove the

safety plates to connect or carry out service,

maintenance or repair work on welding equipment.

See installation instructions in the instruction manual

for the cooling unit.

5.8 Turning on the power source

Turn on the mains power by turning the mains switch to the ”1” position.

Turn the unit off by turning the switch to the ”0” position.

Whether the mains power supply is interrupted or the power unit is switched off in

the normal manner, welding data will be stored and is available next time the unit is

started.

6 MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance is important for safe, reliable operation.

Only those persons who have appropriate electrical knowledge (authorized

personnel) may remove the safety plates to connect or carry out service,

maintenance or repair work on welding equipment.

CAUTION!

All guarantee undertakings from the supplier cease to apply if the customer himself

attempts any work in the product during the guarantee period in order to rectify any faults.

6.1 Inspection and cleaning

Power source

Check regularly that the welding power source is not clogged with dirt.

How often and which cleaning methods apply depend on: the welding process, arc

times, placement, and the surrounding environment. It is normally sufficient to blow

down the power source with dry compressed air (reduced pressure) once a year.

Clogged or blocked air inlets and outlets otherwise result in overheating.

Welding torch

The welding torch's wear parts should be cleaned and replaced at regular intervals in

order to achieve trouble-free welding.

7 FAULT-TRACING

Try these recommended checks and inspections before sending for an authorised

service technician.

Type of fault Corrective action

No arc. SCheck that the mains power supply switch is turned on.

SCheck that the welding current supply and return cables are

correctly connected.

SCheck that the correct current value is set.

SCheck the mains power supply.

The welding current is

interrupted during welding.

SCheck to see whether the thermal cut-outs have tripped.

SCheck the mains power supply fuses.

The thermal cut-out trips

frequently.

SMake sure that you are not exceeding the rated data for the

welding power source (i.e. that the unit is not being

overloaded).

SMake sure that the power source is clean.

Poor welding performance. SCheck that the welding current supply and return cables are

correctly connected.

SCheck that the correct current value is set.

SCheck that the correct electrodes are being used.

SCheck the gas flow.
