INITIAL OPERATION
After the power supply is turned on (as described above), follow these steps:
1. Make sure that all necessary preparations have been made with regard to
the ultrasonic system and tooling, and that the items to be welded are in
position.
2. Press and hold the TEST button. While depressing the TEST button,
check the LCD reading. Make sure the reading on the LCD display (see
example below) does not exceed 10%.
a) If the display is above 10%, contact Sonics immediately for further
instructions before proceeding.
b) If the display is below 10%, you can proceed with operation.
During the testing process, keep in mind that the ultrasonics are only
activated as long as the TEST button is depressed – once you release the
TEST button, ultrasonics is terminated.
3. The power supply is now ready for operation.
NOTE: The TEST and
Load Meter check
should always be done
for all cold start-ups,
and for any start-up
after the system has
been idle for 20 minutes
or more.
