When delivered the intermediate cable is equipped with steel spiral wire liner.
The intermediate cable should be as straight as possible in mounting of the wire liner. Push the
wire liner into the intermediate cable from the Promig 501, 501L and 530 end, tighten the jacket
nut. The extra wire liner is cut off on the sub-feeder end; push the large pass of the wire liner into
the intermediate cable and cut off the wire liner at 40 mm length from the snap connector. Fasten
the tip of the wire liner with end connectors and jacket nut to the snap connector.
2.2.3. Mounting of MIG welding gun
In order to ensure trouble-free welding, check in operation instructions of gun used by you that
wire guide tube and contact tip of gun are according to manufacturer’s recommendation suitable
to be used for wire feed diameter and type in question.
Too tight a wire guide tube might cause for wire feed unit a bigger stress than normally as well
as disturbances in wire feed.
Screw snap connector of gun tight that there won’t come any voltage losses on connecting
surface. A loose connection will heat gun and wire feed unit.
When you are using liquid-cooled gun, mount liquid hoses according to figure.
Promig units have for overheating of liquid-cooled PMT gun and for overload of wire feed
motor a yellow pilot lamp for overload, which is operating as follows:
- Thermo shield of Kemppi PMT gun is operating: Equipment stops welding, yellow signal
lamp H11 is lighted and is illuminated in periods of 0,5 s until thermo shield has returned.
- Motor is overloaded: 2 different functions
1. Motor is overloaded to some extent: Signal lamp H11 is lighted and is illuminated
in periods of 0,25 s, equipment doesn’t stop welding. The lamp is not extinguished
until welding is started again after stop.
2. Motor is overloaded a lot: Equipment stops welding, signal lamp H11 is lighted and is
illuminated in periods of 0,25 s until welding is started again.
2.2.4. Operating switch positions of the Promig 501, 501L and 530
when the Promig 100 subfeeder is used
Welding mode switch (S21 or S31) is set on position MIG two-sequence procedure or MIG
four-sequence procedure according to necessarity.
Control mode selection switches (S22 or S32) are set on position for remote control.
With the above-mentioned selections the welding controls were transmitted to control panel of
the Promig 100, see the paragraph:”Control panel operations”.
SELECTO-/SYNERGIC-operations as well as the welding dynamics are adjusted on the Promig
501, 501L and 530 panel, also the digital displays for wire feed speed, current and voltage
are still operating on the panel, see the paragraph ”Control panels operations” in the operation
instructions for the Promig 501, 501L and 530.
NOTE! When the Promig 100 is switched on you can select the MMA characteristics on the
Promig 501, 501L and 530 panel only if the control mode selection switch is on position for
local control.
