1.1 General information
These operating instructions apply to the power unit type NOMARK 65/99
with welding gun C0 and/or CHP and are intended for
the operating, repair and service personnel.
Familiarise yourself with the contents of these operating instructions
before starting the power unit. You will then achieve better
welding results and work safely.
In the event of difficulties or confusion please consult the after sales
service of TWS Tech, who will be pleased to help you.
The figures, specifications and data given in these operating instructions
correspond to the state of development as on 13 March 2001.
TWS reserves the right to make technical changes serving to
improve the power unit.
1.1.1 For your safety
Knowledge of the contents of these operating instructions is essential
to ensure safe and trouble free operation of the stud welding system.
See chapter 2 for information on proper and safe handling of welding
guns.
Circumstances and requirements change from case to case.
Therefore also always comply with your national and EN (European)
standards regarding safety.
Set-up personnel
Set-up personnel need knowledge and experience in welding to
• assess the workplace,
• set up the equipment
• select the right welding element.
Knowledge in the handling of stud welding systems is also required.
This knowledge is taught either by TWS or trained set-up personnel.
Operator
Welding work may only be performed by persons over 18 years of
age. Knowledge of welding is presupposed (see also section 1.1.3).
Employer
The personnel must be instructed according to the regulations of
BG § 1 regularly, at least once a year.
Untrained or unauthorised personnel may not use the power unit.
1.1.2 Field of application of the stud welding system
The power unit is designed for welding of welding elements (e.g.
welding studs) by the arc pressure welding method. The device
only works in combination with a suitable welding gun.
The power unit can be used to weld, for example, welding studs
according to EN 13918 – Studs for arc welding – on to weldable
workpiece surfaces. Many other forms of welding element can
5
also be welded. Contact THOMAS in this regard if necessary.

1.1.3 Features of the stud welding system
• Easy operation
The power unit is easy to use and – except in the case of work
subject to official supervision – no special welding qualification is
necessary. The partial mechanisation of the welding process
means high-quality welding results can be achieved after a short
familiarisation period.
• Safety
We have designed the device according to EU and national Belgian
regulations so that you can work as safely as possible. Work
under increased electrical hazard is permitted. The device fulfils
the requirements of Protection Class I, IP 21 and comes with the
"CE" symbol.
• Long life
The transformers, rectifiers and electronics are especially robust
and together with the modern sheet steel housing guarantee long
life of the power unit.
1.2 Components of the stud welding system
The stud welding system consists of the
power unit (type NOMARK 65/ 99), welding gun ,(C0), Ground cable and chuck
NOMARK 65 / 99 C0 welding gun Double ground clamp
Fig. 1 - 1 Power unit and stud welding gun
1) Power unit NOMARK 65 + C0 ( welding gun for contact welding)
2) Power unit NOMARK 99 + C0 ( welding gun for contact welding)
Both welding units can weld normal welding studs. They are equipped with studs manually.

1.3 Functional principle of the stud welding system
Stud welding systems are used to weld metal welding studs (e.g.
threaded studs) on to weldable metal workpiece surfaces.
The power unit NOMARK 65/99 is a mobile welding unit developed by
THOMAS that sets new standards in stud welding technology with
its compact construction.
It works by the principle of capacitor discharge.
Together with a manually equipped welding gun of the type C0 (contact
welding gun) , it can weld normal welding studs with ignition tips.
The welding energy required is delivered by the power unit, which
charges a capacitor battery via a regulator circuit. The welding
current is then activated by a power SCR. The electric circuit is
closed by the welding gun, stud, workpiece and earth cable.

1.4 Stud welding gun C0
Field of application
The C0 is a contact welding gun for welding studs with ignition
tips. The welding elements should preferably be of
steel and stainless steel. Brass or Aluminium studs can also be processed
with limitations.
Owing to the somewhat longer welding time (compared to gap
welding) and deeper penetration, the C0 is especially suitable for lightly galvanised steel
.
Fig. 1 - 3 Contact welding gun C0
See chapter 5.6 for technical specifications and chapter 5.8 for individual part
drawings and replacement part numbers.
Method
A welding element is first pushed into the Chuck of the welding
gun. The ignition tip of the element is then placed down vertically
at the required point on the workpiece and the gun pressed down
until all positioning feet touch the workpiece (this pushes the
plunger against the pressure spring).
The welding current is then switched on and the welding process
started by pressing the start button. The ignition tip evaporates
and generates an arc, which melts the face of the stud and the
8
workpiece.

The pre-stressed pressure spring then forces the welding element
into the weld pool and the arc is extinguished. The capacitors are
discharged completely. The weld pool solidifies.
This welding process lasts about 1.5 to 3.0 ms.
The welding gun can be pulled off the welding element vertically
directly afterwards and fitted with a new one.

Note:
A threaded stud was chosen as welding element in the figure above.
Other welding studs equipped with ignition tip are shown in chapter 1.8
