3.01 Environment
These units are designed for use in environments with
increased hazard of electric shock as outlined in IEC
60974.5.
A. Examples of environments with increased hazard of
electric shock are:
1. In locations in which freedom of movement is re-
stricted, so that the operator is forced to perform the
work in a cramped (kneeling, sitting or lying) position
with physical contact with conductive parts.
2. In locations which are fully or partially limited by con-
ductive elements, and in which there is a high risk of
unavoidable or accidental contact by the operator.
3. In wet or damp hot locations where humidity or per-
spiration considerably reduces the skin resistance
of the human body and the insulation properties of
accessories.
B. Environments with increased hazard of electric shock
do not include places where electrically conductive parts in
the near vicinity of the operator, which can cause increased
hazard, have been insulated.
3.02 Location
Be sure to locate the welder according to the following
guidelines:
A. In areas, free from moisture and dust.
B. Ambient temperature between 0° C to 40° C.
C. In areas, free from oil, steam and corrosive gases.
D. In areas, not subjected to abnormal vibration or shock.
E. In areas, not exposed to direct sunlight or rain.
F. The enclosure design of this Wire Feeder meets the
requirements of IP23S as outlined in AS60529. This
provides adequate protection against solid objects
(greater than 12mm), and direct protection from verti-
cal drops. Under no circumstances should the unit be
operated or connected in a micro environment that will
exceed the stated conditions. For further information
please refer to AS 60529.
G. Precautions must be taken against the Wire Feeder
toppling over. The Wire Feeder must be located on
a suitable horizontal surface in the upright position
when in use.
SECTION 3: INSTALLATION OPERATION AND SETUP
WARNING
This equipment should be electrically
connected by a qualified electrician.
3.03 Ventilation
!
WARNING
Since the inhalation of welding fumes can
be harmful, ensure that the welding area is
effectively ventilated.
3.04 Mains Supply Voltage
Requirements
See Operating Manual for Transmig 250i.
3.05 Electromagnetic Compatibility
!
WARNING
Extra precautions for Electromagnetic
Compatibility may be required when this
Welding Power Source is used in a domestic
situation.
A. Installation and Use - Users Responsibility
The user is responsible for installing and using the welding
equipment according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
If electromagnetic disturbances are detected then it shall
be the responsibility of the user of the welding equipment
to resolve the situation with the technical assistance of
the manufacturer. In some cases this remedial action
may be as simple as earthing the welding circuit, see
NOTE below. In other cases it could involve constructing
an electromagnetic screen enclosing the Welding Power
Source and the work, complete with associated input
filters. In all cases, electromagnetic disturbances shall be
reduced to the point where they are no longer Trouble-
some.
