Common Questions
44 totalWhat input voltages does the Dynasty 350 accept?
The Dynasty 350 is equipped with Auto-Line, which automatically links the power source to any primary input voltage from 190 to 625 volts, single- or three-phase, 50 or 60 hertz. It also adjusts for voltage spikes within the entire range. No manual voltage switching is required. (Page 12)
What is the maximum open-circuit voltage on the Dynasty 350?
The maximum open-circuit DC voltage (Uo) is 75 volts when in Stick mode with normal open-circuit voltage selected. A low open-circuit voltage of 10–15 volts is present while in TIG Lift Arc mode or while in Stick with low open-circuit voltage selected. (Page 12)
Is there significant voltage present inside the machine after I turn it off?
Yes — significant DC voltage exists in inverter welding power sources after removal of input power. You must turn off the inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge the input capacitors according to the instructions in the Maintenance Section before touching any internal parts. Always wait at least 60 seconds after power is turned off, or check that input capacitor voltage is near 0 before touching any parts. (Page 10)
What maintenance should I perform on the inside of the Dynasty 350?
The manual covers blowing out the inside of the unit in Section 8-2 and coolant maintenance in Section 8-3. These procedures are detailed in the Maintenance and Troubleshooting section starting on page 66.
What safety precautions should I follow to reduce EMF exposure while welding?
Keep cables close together by twisting, taping, or using a cable cover, and do not place your body between welding cables. Keep your head and trunk as far from the equipment as possible, and connect the work clamp to the workpiece as close to the weld as possible. Do not coil or drape cables around your body, and do not weld while carrying the welding power source. (Page 12)
Can I use the Dynasty 350 if I have a pacemaker or other implanted medical device?
Wearers of pacemakers and other implanted medical devices should keep away from arc welding operations. Implanted medical device wearers should consult their doctor and the device manufacturer before going near arc welding, spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations.

Section 1 − Safety Precautions - Read Before Using
som 2015−09 7 Protect yourself and others from injury — read, follow, and save these important safety precautions and operating instructions. 1-1. Symbol Usage DANGER! − Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. The possible hazards are shown in the adjoining symbols or explained in the text. Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. The possible hazards are shown in the adjoining symbols or ex- plained in the text. NOTICE − Indicates statements not related to personal injury. Indicates special instructions. This group of symbols means Warning! Watch Out! ELECTRIC SHOCK, MOVING PARTS, and HOT PARTS hazards. Consult sym- bols and related instructions below for necessary actions to avoid the hazards. 1-2. Arc Welding Hazards The symbols shown below are used throughout this manual to call attention to and identify possible hazards. When you see the symbol, watch out, and follow the related instructions to avoid the hazard. The safety information given below is only a summary of the more complete safety information found in the Safety Standards listed in Section 1-5. Read and follow all Safety Standards. Only qualified persons should install, operate, maintain, and repair this unit. During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away. Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is electrically live whenever the output is on. The input power circuit and machine internal circuits are also live when power is on. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the wire, wire reel, drive roll housing, and all metal parts touching the welding wire are electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperly grounded equipment is a hazard. Do not touch live electrical parts. ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work or ground. Do not use AC output in damp areas, if movement is confined, or if there is a danger of falling. Use AC output ONLY if required for the welding process. If AC output is required, use remote output control if present on unit. Additional safety precautions are required when any of the follow- ing electrically hazardous conditions are present: in damp locations or while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings, or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting, kneeling, or lying; or when there is a high risk of unavoid- able or accidental contact with the workpiece or ground. For these conditions, use the following equipment in order presented: 1) a semiautomatic DC constant voltage (wire) welder, 2) a DC manual (stick) welder, or 3) an AC welder with reduced open-circuit volt- age. In most situations, use of a DC, constant voltage wire welder is recommended. And, do not work alone! Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety Standards). Properly install, ground, and operate this equipment according to its Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local codes. Always verify the supply ground − check and be sure that input power cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly grounded receptacle outlet. When making input connections, attach proper grounding conduc- tor first − double-check connections. Keep cords dry, free of oil and grease, and protected from hot metal and sparks. Frequently inspect input power cord and ground conductor for damage or bare wiring – replace immediately if damaged – bare wiring can kill. Turn off all equipment when not in use. Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or repaired cables. Do not drape cables over your body. If earth grounding of the workpiece is required, ground it directly with a separate cable. Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground, or another electrode from a different machine. Do not touch electrode holders connected to two welding ma- chines at the same time since double open-circuit voltage will be present. Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged parts at once. Maintain unit according to manual. Wear a safety harness if working above floor level. Keep all panels and covers securely in place. Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to workpiece or worktable as near the weld as practical. Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent contact with any metal object. Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any single weld output terminal. Disconnect cable for process not in use. Use GFCI protection when operating auxiliary equipment in damp or wet locations. SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists in inverter weld- ing power sources AFTER removal of input power. Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Section before touching any parts. HOT PARTS can burn. Do not touch hot parts bare handed. Allow cooling period before working on equipment. To handle hot parts, use proper tools and/or wear heavy, insu- lated welding gloves and clothing to prevent burns.OM- 216869 Page 2 Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health. FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the arc to remove welding fumes and gases. The recommended way to determine adequate ventilation is to sample for the composition and quantity of fumes and gases to which personnel are exposed. If ventilation is poor, wear an approved air-supplied respirator. Read and understand the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and the manufacturer’s instructions for adhesives, coatings, cleaners, consumables, coolants, degreasers, fluxes, and metals. Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watch- person nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breath- ing air is safe. Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying op- erations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors to form highly toxic and irritating gases. Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off toxic fumes if welded. Arc rays from the welding process produce intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the weld. Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter lenses to protect your face and eyes from arc rays and sparks when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards). Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet. Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash, glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc. Wear body protection made from durable, flame−resistant mate- rial (leather, heavy cotton, wool). Body protection includes oil-free clothing such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap. ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin. Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparks can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot workpiece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is safe before doing any welding. WELDING can cause fire or explosion. Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers. Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material. Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal. Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas. Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can cause fire on the hidden side. Do not weld on containers that have held combustibles, or on closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes unless they are properly prepared according to AWS F4.1 and AWS A6.0 (see Safety Standards). Do not weld where the atmosphere can contain flammable dust, gas, or liquid vapors (such as gasoline). Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical to prevent welding current from traveling long, possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock, sparks, and fire hazards. Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes. Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire at contact tip when not in use. Wear body protection made from durable, flame−resistant material (leather, heavy cotton, wool). Body protection includes oil-free clothing such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap. Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches, from your person before doing any welding. After completion of work, inspect area to ensure it is free of sparks, glowing embers, and flames. Use only correct fuses or circuit breakers. Do not oversize or by- pass them. Follow requirements in OSHA 1910.252 (a) (2) (iv) and NFPA 51B for hot work and have a fire watcher and extinguisher nearby. Read and understand the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and the manufacturer’s instructions for adhesives, coatings, cleaners, consumables, coolants, degreasers, fluxes, and metals. FLYING METAL or DIRT can injure eyes. Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding cause sparks and flying metal. As welds cool, they can throw off slag. Wear approved safety glasses with side shields even under your welding helmet. BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill. Shut off compressed gas supply when not in use. Always ventilate confined spaces or use approved air-supplied respirator.
Electric And Magnetic Fields (Emf)
can affect Implanted Medical Devices. Wearers of Pacemakers and other Implanted Medical Devices should keep away. Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the device manufacturer before going near arc welding, spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations. Noise from some processes or equipment can damage hearing. Wear approved ear protection if noise lev- el is high. NOISE can damage hearing. Compressed gas cylinders contain gas under high pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since gas cylinders are normally part of the welding process, be sure to treat them carefully. CYLINDERS can explode if damaged. Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechani- cal shocks, physical damage, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs. Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary support or cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping. Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits. Never drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder. Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder. Never weld on a pressurized cylinder − explosion will result. Use only correct compressed gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and fittings designed for the specific application; maintain them and associated parts in good condition. Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve. Do not stand in front of or behind the regulator when opening the valve. Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in use or connected for use. Use the right equipment, correct procedures, and sufficient num- ber of persons to lift and move cylinders. Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and Compressed Gas Association (CGA) publication P-1 listed in Safety Standards.OM- 216869 Page 3 1-3. Additional Symbols For Installation, Operation, And Maintenance FIRE OR EXPLOSION hazard. Do not install or place unit on, over, or near combustible surfaces. Do not install unit near flammables. Do not overload building wiring − be sure power supply system is properly sized, rated, and protected to handle this unit. FALLING EQUIPMENT can injure. Use lifting eye to lift unit only, NOT running gear, gas cylinders, or any other accessories. Use equipment of adequate capacity to lift and support unit. If using lift forks to move unit, be sure forks are long enough to extend beyond opposite side of unit. Keep equipment (cables and cords) away from moving vehicles when working from an aerial location. Follow the guidelines in the Applications Manual for the Revised NIOSH Lifting Equation (Publication No. 94−110) when manu- ally lifting heavy parts or equipment. OVERUSE can cause OVERHEATING Allow cooling period; follow rated duty cycle. Reduce current or reduce duty cycle before starting to weld again. Do not block or filter airflow to unit. FLYING SPARKS can injure. Wear a face shield to protect eyes and face. Shape tungsten electrode only on grinder with proper guards in a safe location wearing proper face, hand, and body protection. Sparks can cause fires — keep flammables away. STATIC (ESD) can damage PC boards. Put on grounded wrist strap BEFORE handling boards or parts. Use proper static-proof bags and boxes to store, move, or ship PC boards. MOVING PARTS can injure. Keep away from moving parts. Keep away from pinch points such as drive rolls. WELDING WIRE can injure. Do not press gun trigger until instructed to do so. Do not point gun toward any part of the body, other people, or any metal when threading welding wire. BATTERY EXPLOSION can injure. Do not use welder to charge batteries or jump start vehicles unless it has a battery charging feature designed for this purpose. MOVING PARTS can injure. Keep away from moving parts such as fans. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards closed and securely in place. Have only qualified persons remove doors, panels, covers, or guards for maintenance and troubleshooting as necessary. Reinstall doors, panels, covers, or guards when maintenance is finished and before reconnecting input power.
Read Instructions.
Read and follow all labels and the Owner’s Manual carefully before installing, operating, or servicing unit. Read the safety information at the beginning of the manual and in each section. Use only genuine replacement parts from the manufacturer. Perform installation, maintenance, and service according to the Owner’s Manuals, industry standards, and national, state, and local codes. H.F. RADIATION can cause interference. High-frequency (H.F.) can interfere with radio navigation, safety services, computers, and communications equipment. Have only qualified persons familiar with electronic equipment perform this installation. The user is responsible for having a qualified electrician prompt- ly correct any interference problem resulting from the installa- tion. If notified by the FCC about interference, stop using the equipment at once. Have the installation regularly checked and maintained. Keep high-frequency source doors and panels tightly shut, keep spark gaps at correct setting, and use grounding and shielding to minimize the possibility of interference. ARC WELDING can cause interference. Electromagnetic energy can interfere with sensitive electronic equipment such as computers and computer-driven equipment such as robots. Be sure all equipment in the welding area is electromagnetically compatible. To reduce possible interference, keep weld cables as short as possible, close together, and down low, such as on the floor. Locate welding operation 100 meters from any sensitive elec- tronic equipment. Be sure this welding machine is installed and grounded according to this manual. If interference still occurs, the user must take extra measures such as moving the welding machine, using shielded cables, using line filters, or shielding the work area.OM- 216869 Page 4 1-4.

EMF Information Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized electric and magnetic fields (EMF). The current from arc welding (and allied pro- cesses including spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, and induction heating operations) creates an EMF field around the welding circuit. EMF fields can interfere with some medical implants, e.g. pace- makers. Protective measures for persons wearing medical implants have to be taken. For example, restrict access for passers−by or con- duct individual risk assessment for welders. All welders should use the following procedures in order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:

Dangers relatifs au soudage à l’arc Les symboles représentés ci-dessous sont utilisés dans ce ma- nuel pour attirer l’attention et identifier les dangers possibles. En présence de l’un de ces symboles, prendre garde et suivre les instructions afférentes pour éviter tout risque. Les instructions en matière de sécurité indiquées ci-dessous ne constituent qu’un sommaire des instructions de sécurité plus complètes fournies dans les normes de sécurité énumérées dans la Sec- tion 2-5. Lire et observer toutes les normes de sécurité. Seul un personnel qualifié est autorisé à installer, faire fonc- tionner, entretenir et réparer cet appareil. Pendant le fonctionnement, maintenir à distance toutes les personnes, notamment les enfants de l’appareil. Le contact d’organes électriques sous tension peut provoquer des accidents mortels ou des brûlures graves. Le circuit de l’électrode et de la pièce est sous tension lorsque le courant est délivré à la sortie. Le circuit d’alimentation et les circuits internes de la machine sont également sous tension lorsque l’alimen- tation est sur Marche. Dans le mode de soudage avec du fil, le fil, le dérouleur, le bloc de commande du rouleau et toutes les parties métalliques en contact avec le fil sont sous tension électrique. Un équipement installé ou mis à la terre de manière incorrecte ou impropre constitue un danger. UNE DÉCHARGE ÉLECTRIQUE peut entraîner la mort. Ne pas toucher aux pièces électriques sous tension. Porter des gants isolants et des vêtements de protection secs et sans trous. S’isoler de la pièce à couper et du sol en utilisant des housses ou des tapis assez grands afin d’éviter tout contact physique avec la pièce à couper ou le sol. Ne pas se servir de source électrique à courant électrique dans les zones humides, dans les endroits confinés ou là où on risque de tomber. Se servir d’une source électrique à courant électrique UNIQUE- MENT si le procédé de soudage le demande. Si l’utilisation d’une source électrique à courant électrique s’avère nécessaire, se servir de la fonction de télécommande si l’appareil en est équipé. D’autres consignes de sécurité sont nécessaires dans les condi- tions suivantes : risques électriques dans un environnement humide ou si l’on porte des vêtements mouillés ; sur des structures métalliques telles que sols, grilles ou échafaudages ; en position coincée comme assise, à genoux ou couchée ; ou s’il y a un risque élevé de contact inévitable ou accidentel avec la pièce à souder ou le sol. Dans ces conditions, utiliser les équipements suivants, dans l’ordre indiqué : 1) un poste à souder DC à tension constante (à fil), 2) un poste à souder DC manuel (électrode) ou 3) un poste à souder AC à tension à vide réduite. Dans la plupart des situations, l’utilisation d’un poste à souder DC à fil à tension constante est re- commandée. En outre, ne pas travailler seul ! Couper l’alimentation ou arrêter le moteur avant de procéder à l’in- stallation, à la réparation ou à l’entretien de l’appareil. Déverrouiller l’alimentation selon la norme OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (voir nor- mes de sécurité). Installez, mettez à la terre et utilisez correctement cet équipement conformément à son Manuel d’Utilisation et aux réglementations nationales, gouvernementales et locales. Toujours vérifier la terre du cordon d’alimentation. Vérifier et s’assurer que le fil de terre du cordon d’alimentation est bien raccordé à la borne de terre du sectionneur ou que la fiche du cordon est raccordée à une prise correctement mise à la terre. En effectuant les raccordements d’entrée, fixer d’abord le conduc- teur de mise à la terre approprié et contre-vérifier les connexions. Les câbles doivent être exempts d’humidité, d’huile et de graisse; protégez−les contre les étincelles et les pièces métalliques chaudes. Vérifier fréquemment le cordon d’alimentation et le conducteur de mise à la terre afin de s’assurer qu’il n’est pas altéré ou dénudé −, le remplacer immédiatement s’il l’est −. Un fil dénudé peut entraî- ner la mort. L’équipement doit être hors tension lorsqu’il n’est pas utilisé. Ne pas utiliser des câbles usés, endommagés, de grosseur insuffi- sante ou mal épissés. Ne pas enrouler les câbles autour du corps. Si la pièce soudée doit être mise à la terre, le faire directement avec un câble distinct. Ne pas toucher l’électrode quand on est en contact avec la pièce, la terre ou une électrode provenant d’une autre machine. Ne pas toucher des porte électrodes connectés à deux machines en même temps à cause de la présence d’une tension à vide dou- blée. N’utiliser qu’un matériel en bon état. Réparer ou remplacer sur-le- champ les pièces endommagées. Entretenir l’appareil conformé- ment à ce manuel. Porter un harnais de sécurité si l’on doit travailler au-dessus du sol. S’assurer que tous les panneaux et couvercles sont correctement en place. Fixer le câble de retour de façon à obtenir un bon contact métal- métal avec la pièce à souder ou la table de travail, le plus près pos- sible de la soudure. Isoler la pince de masse quand pas mis à la pièce pour éviter le contact avec tout objet métallique. Ne pas raccorder plus d’une électrode ou plus d’un câble de masse à une même borne de sortie de soudage. Débrancher le câble pour le procédé non utilisé. Utiliser une protection différentielle lors de l’utilisation d’un équi- pement auxiliaire dans des endroits humides ou mouillés. Il reste une TENSION DC NON NÉGLIGEABLE dans les sources de soudage onduleur UNE FOIS l’alimentation coupée. Arrêter les convertisseurs, débrancher le courant électrique et décharger les condensateurs d’alimentation selon les instructions indiquées dans la partie Entretien avant de toucher les pièces.OM-216869 Page 6 LES PIÈCES CHAUDES peuvent provoquer des brûlures. Ne pas toucher à mains nues les parties chaudes. Prévoir une période de refroidissement avant de travailler à l’équipement. Ne pas toucher aux pièces chaudes, utiliser les outils recomman- dés et porter des gants de soudage et des vêtements épais pour éviter les brûlures. LES FUMÉES ET LES GAZ peuvent être dangereux. Le soudage génère des fumées et des gaz. Leur inhalation peut être dangereux pour votre santé. Eloigner votre tête des fumées. Ne pas respirer les fumées. À l’intérieur, ventiler la zone et/ou utiliser une ventilation forcée au niveau de l’arc pour l’évacuation des fumées et des gaz de soudage. Pour déterminer la bonne ventilation, il est recommandé de procéder à un prélèvement pour la composition et la quantité de fumées et de gaz auxquels est exposé le personnel. Si la ventilation est médiocre, porter un respirateur anti-vapeurs approuvé. Lire et comprendre les fiches de données de sécurité et les instruc- tions du fabricant concernant les adhésifs, les revêtements, les nettoyants, les consommables, les produits de refroidissement, les dégraisseurs, les flux et les métaux. Travailler dans un espace fermé seulement s’il est bien ventilé ou en portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Demander toujours à un surveillant dûment formé de se tenir à proximité. Des fumées et des gaz de soudage peuvent déplacer l’air et abaisser le niveau d’oxygène provoquant des blessures ou des accidents mortels. S’assurer que l’air de respiration ne présente aucun danger. Ne pas souder dans des endroits situés à proximité d’opérations de dégraissage, de nettoyage ou de pulvérisation. La chaleur et les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir en présence de vapeurs et for- mer des gaz hautement toxiques et irritants. Ne pas souder des métaux munis d’un revêtement, tels que l’acier galvanisé, plaqué en plomb ou au cadmium à moins que le revête- ment n’ait été enlevé dans la zone de soudure, que l’endroit soit bien ventilé, et en portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Les revêtements et tous les métaux renfermant ces éléments peuvent dégager des fumées toxiques en cas de soudage. LES RAYONS DE L’ARC peuvent provoquer des brûlures dans les yeux et sur la peau. Le rayonnement de l’arc du procédé de soudage génère des rayons visibles et invisibles intenses (ultraviolets e infrarouges) susceptibles de provoquer des brûlures dans les yeux et sur la peau. Des étincelles sont projetées pendant le soudage. Porter un casque de soudage approuvé muni de verres filtrants approprié pour protéger visage et yeux pour protéger votre visage et vos yeux pendant le soudage ou pour regarder (voir ANSI Z49.1 et Z87.1 énuméré dans les normes de sécurité). Porter des lunettes de sécurité avec écrans latéraux même sous votre casque. Avoir recours à des écrans protecteurs ou à des rideaux pour protéger les autres contre les rayonnements les éblouissements et les étincelles ; prévenir toute personne sur les lieux de ne pas regarder l’arc. Porter un équipement de protection pour le corps fait d’un matériau résistant et ignifuge (cuir, coton robuste, laine). La protection du corps comporte des vêtements sans huile comme par ex. des gants de cuir, une chemise solide, des pantalons sans revers, des chaussures hautes et une casquette. LE SOUDAGE peut provoquer un incendie ou une explosion. Le soudage effectué sur des conteneurs fermés tels que des réservoirs, tambours ou des conduites peut provoquer leur éclatement. Des étincelles peuvent être projetées de l’arc de soudure. La projection d’étincelles, des pièces chaudes et des équipements chauds peut provoquer des incen- dies et des brûlures. Le contact accidentel de l’électrode avec des objets métalliques peut provoquer des étincelles, une explosion, un sur- chauffement ou un incendie. Avant de commencer le soudage, vérifier et s’assurer que l’endroit ne présente pas de danger. Déplacer toutes les substances inflammables à une distance de 10,7 m de l’arc de soudage. En cas d’impossibilité les recouvrir soigneusement avec des protections homologués. Ne pas souder dans un endroit là où des étincelles peuvent tomber sur des substances inflammables. Se protéger et d’autres personnes de la projection d’étincelles et de métal chaud. Des étincelles et des matériaux chauds du soudage peuvent facilement passer dans d’autres zones en traversant de petites fissures et des ouvertures. Surveiller tout déclenchement d’incendie et tenir un extincteur à proximité. Le soudage effectué sur un plafond, plancher, paroi ou séparation peut déclencher un incendie de l’autre côté. Ne pas effectuer le soudage sur des conteneurs fermés tels que des réservoirs, tambours, ou conduites, à moins qu’ils n’aient été préparés correctement conformément à AWS F4.1 et AWS A6.0 (voir les Normes de Sécurité). Ne pas souder là où l’air ambiant pourrait contenir des poussières, gaz ou émanations inflammables (vapeur d’essence, par exemple). Brancher le câble de masse sur la pièce le plus près possible de la zone de soudage pour éviter le transport du courant sur une longue distance par des chemins inconnus éventuels en provo- quant des risques d’électrocution, d’étincelles et d’incendie. Ne pas utiliser le poste de soudage pour dégeler des conduites ge- lées. En cas de non utilisation, enlever la baguette d’électrode du porte- électrode ou couper le fil à la pointe de contact. Porter un équipement de protection pour le corps fait d’un matériau résistant et ignifuge (cuir, coton robuste, laine). La protection du corps comporte des vêtements sans huile comme par ex. des gants de cuir, une chemise solide, des pantalons sans revers, des chaussures hautes et une casquette. Avant de souder, retirer toute substance combustible de vos po- ches telles qu’un allumeur au butane ou des allumettes. Une fois le travail achevé, assurez−vous qu’il ne reste aucune trace d’étincelles incandescentes ni de flammes. Utiliser exclusivement des fusibles ou coupe−circuits appropriés. Ne pas augmenter leur puissance; ne pas les ponter. Suivre les recommandations dans OSHA 1910.252(a)(2)(iv) et NFPA 51B pour les travaux à chaud et avoir de la surveillance et un extincteur à proximité. Lire et comprendre les fiches de données de sécurité et les instruc- tions du fabricant concernant les adhésifs, les revêtements, les nettoyants, les consommables, les produits de refroidissement, les dégraisseurs, les flux et les métaux. DES PIECES DE METAL ou DES SALETES peuvent provoquer des blessures dans les yeux. Le soudage, l’écaillement, le passage de la pièce à la brosse en fil de fer, et le meulage génèrent des étincelles et des particules métalliques volantes. Pendant la période de ref- roidissement des soudures, elles risquent de projeter du laitier. Porter des lunettes de sécurité avec écrans latéraux ou un écran facial.
Les
Accumulations
De
Gaz
risquent de provoquer des blessures ou même la mort. Fermer l’alimentation du gaz comprimé en cas de non utilisation. Veiller toujours à bien aérer les espaces confinés ou se servir d’un respirateur d’adduction d’air homologué. Les CHAMPS ÉLECTROMAGNÉTIQUES (CEM) peuvent affecter les implants médicaux. Les porteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques et autres implants médicaux doivent rester à distance. Les porteurs d’implants médicaux doivent consulter leur médecin et le fabricant du dispositif avant de s’approcher de la zone où se déroule du soudage à l’arc, du soudage par points, du gougeage, de la découpe plasma ou une opération de chauffage par induction.OM-216869 Page 7 LE BRUIT peut endommager l’ouïe. Le bruit des processus et des équipements peut affecter l’ouïe. Porter des protections approuvées pour les oreilles si le niveau sonore est trop élevé. Les bouteilles de gaz comprimé contiennent du gaz sous haute pression. Si une bouteille est endommagée, elle peut exploser. Du fait que les bouteilles de gaz font normalement partie du procédé de soudage, les manipuler avec précaution. LES BOUTEILLES peuvent exploser si elles sont endommagées. Protéger les bouteilles de gaz comprimé d’une chaleur excessive, des chocs mécaniques, des dommages physiques, du laitier, des flammes ouvertes, des étincelles et des arcs. Placer les bouteilles debout en les fixant dans un support station- naire ou dans un porte-bouteilles pour les empêcher de tomber ou de se renverser. Tenir les bouteilles éloignées des circuits de soudage ou autres circuits électriques. Ne jamais placer une torche de soudage sur une bouteille à gaz. Une électrode de soudage ne doit jamais entrer en contact avec une bouteille. Ne jamais souder une bouteille pressurisée − risque d’explosion. Utiliser seulement des bouteilles de gaz comprimé, régulateurs, tuyaux et raccords convenables pour cette application spécifique; les maintenir ainsi que les éléments associés en bon état. Tourner le dos à la sortie de vanne lors de l’ouverture de la vanne de la bouteille. Ne pas se tenir devant ou derrière le régulateur lors de l’ouverture de la vanne. Le couvercle du détendeur doit toujours être en place, sauf lorsque la bouteille est utilisée ou qu’elle est reliée pour usage ultérieur. Utiliser les équipements corrects, les bonnes procédures et suffi- samment de personnes pour soulever et déplacer les bouteilles. Lire et suivre les instructions sur les bouteilles de gaz comprimé, l’équipement connexe et le dépliant P-1 de la CGA (Compressed Gas Association) mentionné dans les principales normes de sécurité. 2-3.

Le
Rayonnement
Haute
Fréquence
(H.F.)
risque de provoquer des interférences. Le rayonnement haute fréquence (H.F.) peut provoquer des interférences avec les équi- pements de radio−navigation et de communication, les services de sécurité et les ordinateurs. Demander seulement à des personnes qualifiées familiarisées avec des équipements électroniques de faire fonctionner l’installation. L’utilisateur est tenu de faire corriger rapidement par un électricien qualifié les interférences résultant de l’installation. Si le FCC signale des interférences, arrêter immédiatement l’appareil. Effectuer régulièrement le contrôle et l’entretien de l’installation. Maintenir soigneusement fermés les portes et les panneaux des sources de haute fréquence, maintenir les éclateurs à une distan- ce correcte et utiliser une terre et un blindage pour réduire les interférences éventuelles. LE SOUDAGE À L’ARC risque de provoquer des interférences. L’énergie électromagnétique risque de provoquer des interférences pour l’équipement électronique sensible tel que les ordinateurs et l’équipement commandé par ordinateur tel que les robots. Veiller à ce que tout l’équipement de la zone de soudage soit com- patible électromagnétiquement. Pour réduire la possibilité d’interférence, maintenir les câbles de soudage aussi courts que possible, les grouper, et les poser aussi bas que possible (ex. par terre). Veiller à souder à une distance de 100 mètres de tout équipement électronique sensible. Veiller à ce que ce poste de soudage soit posé et mis à la terre conformément à ce mode d’emploi. En cas d’interférences après avoir pris les mesures précédentes, il incombe à l’utilisateur de prendre des mesures supplémentaires telles que le déplacement du poste, l’utilisation de câbles blindés, l’utilisation de filtres de ligne ou la pose de protecteurs dans la zone de travail. 2-4.

Informations relatives aux CEM Le courant électrique qui traverse tout conducteur génère des champs électromagnétiques (CEM) à certains endroits. Le courant issu d’un soudage à l’arc (et de procédés connexes, y compris le soudage par points, le gougeage, le découpage plasma et les opérations de chauffage par induction) crée un champ électromagnétique (CEM) autour du circuit de soudage. Les champs électromagnétiques produits peuvent causer interférence à certains implants médicaux, p. ex. les stimulateurs cardiaques. Des mesures de protection pour les porteurs d’implants médicaux doivent être prises: Limiter par exemple tout accès aux passants ou procéder à une évaluation des risques individuels pour les soudeurs. Tous les soudeurs doivent appliquer les procédures suivantes pour minimiser l’exposition aux CEM provenant du circuit de soudage:A complete Parts List is available at www.MillerWelds.com OM-216869 Page 9

Process Control 1 1 Process Control Press switch pad until desired pro- cess LED is illuminated: TIG HF Impulse - is a pulsed HF (see Section 6-7) arc starting meth- od that can be used with either AC or DC TIG welding. Make connec- tions according to Section 5-10. TIG Lift-Arc - is an arc starting method in which the electrode must come in contact with the workpiece (see Section 6-7). This method can be used with either AC or DC TIG welding. Make connections ac- cording to Section 5-10. Stick (SMAW) - This method can be used with either AC or DC Stick welding. Make connections ac- cording to Section 5-12. 6-7. Lift-Arc And HF TIG Start Procedures Lift-Arc Start When Lift-Arc button light is On, start arc as follows: 1 TIG Electrode 2 Workpiece Touch tungsten electrode to work- piece at weld start point, enable out- put and shielding gas with torch trig- ger, foot control, or hand control. Hold electrode to workpiece for 1-2 sec- onds, and slowly lift electrode. Arc is formed when electrode is lifted. Normal open-circuit voltage is not present before tungsten electrode touches workpiece; only a low sens- ing voltage is present between elec- trode and workpiece. The solid-state output contactor does not energize until after electrode is touching work- piece. This allows a properly pre- pared electrode (see Section 12-2) to touch workpiece without overheating, sticking, or getting contaminated. Application: Lift-Arc is used for the DCEN or AC GTAW process when HF Start meth- od is not permitted, or to replace the scratch method. HF Start When HF Start button light is On, start arc as follows: High frequency turns on to start arc when output is enabled. High fre- quency turns off when arc is started, and turns on whenever arc is broken to help restart arc. Application: HF start is used for the DCEN GTAW, or the AC GTAW process when a non-contact arc starting method is required. 1 1 − 2 Seconds “Touch” Do NOT Strike Like A Match! 2 Lift-Arc Start Method

RMT STD (Remote Standard) Application: Use Remote Trigger (Stan- dard) with a foot pedal or finger amperage control (see Section 7-47-4A). When a foot or finger remote current control is connected, initial amps, ini- tial slope, final slope, and final amps are controlled by the remote control. NOTE: If an On/Off type trigger is used, it must be a maintained switch. All Sequenc- er functions become active, and must be set by the operator.
Rmt 2T Hold
Application: Use Remote Trigger Hold (2T) for long extended welds. If a foot or finger current control is con- nected to the welding power source, only trigger input is functional (see Section7-4B).
This switch function can be reconfi- gured for 3T, 4T, 4T Momentary, or Mini Logic control See Sections 7-4C, D, E, or F)On
Output will energize two seconds after be- ing selected. Application: Use Output On for Stick (SMAW) welding, or for Lift-Arc without the use of a remote control (see Section7-4H).

4 1 Pulser Control Pulsing is available while using the TIG process. Con- trols can be adjusted while welding. Press switch pad to enable pulser. ON - When illuminated, this LED indicates the pulser is on. Press switch pad until desired parameter LED is illumi- nated. To turn Pulser off, press and release switch pad until the On LED turns off. 2 Encoder Control (Set Value) 3 Ammeter (Displays Value) See Section 6-14 for all Pulser parameter ranges. PPS - Pulse frequency or pulses per second, is the num- ber of pulse cycles per second. Pulse frequency helps reduce heat input, part warpage, and helps weld bead cosmetics. The higher the PPS setting, the smoother the ripple effect, the narrower the weld bead, and the more cooling you get. By setting PPS on the lower end, the pulse is slower, and the weld bead wider. This slow puls- ing helps agitate the weld puddle to help release gas trapped in the weldment, and help reduce porosity (very useful in aluminum welding). Some beginners use a slower pulse rate (2-4 pps) to help them with their timing on adding filler material. An experienced welder may have the PPS setting much higher, depending on their personal preferences, and on what they are trying to ac- complish. PEAK t - (PEAK t) is the percentage of time in each cycle, spent at peak amperage (main amperage). Peak amper- age is set with the Amperage control (see Section 6-3). If one pulse per second is being used, and peak time is set at 50%, one-half second is spent at peak amperage, and the other 50%, or one-half second, is spent at the background amperage. Increasing peak time increases time spent at peak amperage, which increases heat input into the part. A good starting point for peak time is about 50-60%. To find a good ratio, you will have to experiment a bit, but the idea is to decrease heat input into the part, and increase the cosmetics of the weld. BKGND A - (Background amps) is set as a percentage of the peak amps setting. If peak amps is set at 200, and background amps at 50%, your background amps is 100 amps when the machine pulses on the background side of the cycle. The lower background amperage helps re- duce heat input. Increasing or decreasing background amps increases or decreases the overall average am- perage, which helps determine how fluid your puddle is on the background side of the pulse cycle. Overall, you want your puddle to shrink to about one-half the size, but still remain fluid. To start with, set background amps at about 20-30% for stainless/carbon steel, or at about 35-50% for aluminum alloys. 4 Pulsed Output Waveforms Example shows affect changing the Peak Time control has on the pulsed output waveform. Application: Pulsing refers to the alternating raising and lowering of the weld output at a specific rate. The raised portions of the weld output are controlled in width, height, and fre- quency, forming pulses of weld output. These pulses and the lower amperage level between them (called the back- ground amperage) alternately heat and cool the molten weld puddle. The combined effect gives the operator bet- ter control of penetration, bead width, crowning, under- cutting, and heat input. Controls can be adjusted while welding. Pulsing can also be used for filler material addition tech- nique training. Function is enabled, when LED is litA complete Parts List is available at www.MillerWelds.com OM-216869 Page 43 6-10.

PREFLOW [PRE] - If the TIG HF process is active (see Section 6-6) and Preflow is shown on the control panel, use control to set length of time gas flows before arc ini- tiation. Application: Preflow is used to purge the weld area and aids in arc starts. POST FLOW [POST] - If the TIG process is active (see Section 6-6), use control to set length of time gas flows after welding stops. AUTO POST FLOW - Creates a post flow time scaled at 1 second per 10 amps of the peak weld amperage for a given weld cycle. Auto post flow is limited to a 8 second minimum, or to the maximum preset post flow time. Application: Postflow is required to cool tungsten and weld, and to prevent contamination of tungsten and weld. Increase postflow time if tungsten or weld are dark in ap- pearance. DIG - If Stick process is active (see Sec- tion 6-6), use control to set amount of DIG. When set at 0, short-circuit amper- age at low arc voltage is the same as nor- mal welding amperage. When setting is increased, short-circuit amperage at low arc voltage increases. Application: Control helps arc starting or making verti- cal or overhead welds by increasing am- perage at low arc voltage, and reduces electrode sticking while welding. PURGE [PURG] - To activate the gas valve and start the purge function, push and hold the Gas/DIG switch pad for the desired amount of time. To set from 1 to 50 seconds of purge time, hold the Gas/ DIG switch pad while turning the encoder control. Default is 0. While Purge is active, [PURG] is shown in the left display, and purge time is shown in the right display. Pressing any switch pad will end the purge display, but gas will continue to flow until the preset time has timed out. Application: Purge is used to clear the gas lines. 4

AC Waveshape (Dynasty Models Only) 1 2 3 1 AC Waveshape Control Press switch pad until desired function LED is illuminated. 2 Encoder Control (Set Value) 3 Ammeter (Displays Value) See Section 6-14 for all AC Waveshape param- eter ranges. EN Amperage [EN] - Use with AC TIG only to select electrode negative amperage value. EP Amperage [EP] - Use with AC TIG only to select electrode positive amperage value. Note: See Section 7-1 to set same Amplitude control [ENEP]. EN Amperage and EP Amperage allow the op- erator the ability to control the amount of am- perage in the negative and positive half cycles independently. A 1.5 to 1 ratio of EN to EP is a good starting point. This provides cleaning ac- tion, but directs more energy into the workpiece and provides faster travel speeds. 4 Amperage Control Average Amperage Control: Setting EN Am- perage, EP Amperage, Balance, and Frequen- cy values creates an average amperage. The operator can change the average amperage value while maintaining the same EN amper- age to EP amperage ratio at the existing bal- ance and frequency. To change the average amperage value, press the Amperage switch pad and turn the Encoder control. The chang- ing average value is displayed on the ammeter. Example: If EN Amperage is 300, EP Amper- age is 150, Balance is 60%, and Frequency is 120, the average amperage is 240 amps. If you press the Amperage switch pad and turn the Encoder control until 480 amps is displayed, the EN amperage is now 600 and EP amper- age is now 300. The balance remains 60%, and the frequency is still 120, and the 2 to 1 EN am- perage to EP amperage is maintained. Balance [BAL] - AC Balance control is enabled only in AC TIG to set percentage of time polarity is electrode negative. Set control at about 75%, and fine tune from there. 5 Voltmeter Displays word abbreviations of selected pa- rameters. Application: When welding on oxide forming materials such as aluminum or magnesium, excess cleaning is not necessary. To produce a good weld, only 0.10 in (2.5mm) of etched zone along the weld toes is required. Use AC Balance to control the etch zone width. Joint configuration, set-up, process variables, and oxide thickness may affect setting. AC Frequency [FREQ] - Use control to set AC frequency (cycles per second). Application: AC Frequency controls arc width and direction- al control. As AC frequency decreases, the arc becomes wider and less focused, limiting di- rectional control. As AC frequency increases, the arc becomes narrower and more focused, increasing directional control. Travel speed can increase as AC frequency increases. 5 f 4

One will be designated initial switch, and it must be connected be- tween Remote 14 receptacle pins A and B. The second will be designated as the final switch, and it must be connected between Remote 14 receptacle pins D and E. 2 Encoder Control To select 3T, turn Encoder control. Definitions: Initial slope rate is the rate of amperage change determined by the initial amperage, initial slope time, and main amperage. Final slope rate is the rate of amperage change determined by the main amperage, fi- nal slope time, and final amperage. Operation: A. Press and release initial switch within 3/4 second to start shielding gas flow. To stop the preflow sequence before preflow time elapses (25 seconds), press and release final switch. The preflow timer will reset and the weld sequence can be started again. If an initial switch closure is not made again before preflow time ends, gas flow stops, the timer resets, and an initial switch press and release is necessary to start the weld sequence again. B. Press initial switch to start arc at initial amps. Holding switch will change amper- age at initial slope rate (release switch to weld at desired amperage level). C. When main amperage level is reached, initial switch can be released. D. Press and hold the final switch to de- crease amperage at final slope rate (re- lease switch to weld at desired amperage level). E. When final amperage has been reached, the arc extinguishes and shielding gas flows for the time set on the Postflow con- trol. Application: With the use of two remote switches instead of potentiometers, 3T gives the operator the ability to infinitely increase, decrease, or pause and hold amperage within the range determined by the initial, main, and final am- perages. 1

AC Waveshape Selection (Dynasty Models Only) 1 Memory Switch Pad Each memory location can select any of four wave shapes. 2 Encoder Use the Encoder, at any of the nine memory locations, to select between advanced squarewave [ADVS], soft squarewave [SOFT] (default), sine wave [Sine], or triangle wave [TRI]. During normal operation, when EN or EP Amperage is selected, the left pa- rameter screen will display the active waveshape [ADVS],, [Soft], [Sine], or [TRI] and the independent amplitude selection (see Section 7-6) as a re- minder. Application: Use advance squarewave when a more focused arc is required for better directional control. Use soft square- wave when a softer arc with a more fluid puddle is desired. Use sine wave to simu- late a conventional power source. Use triangular waveshape when the effects of peak amperage with reduced overall heat input is required to help control distortion on thin materials. 2 1

With Stick Stuck Check on and the welding electrode (rod) stuck, output is turned off in an at- tempt to save the rod for reuse. This allows the operator time to un-stick the rod, or dis- connect the rod holder from the rod without arc occurring. Turn Stick Stuck Check on when this function is desired. Some applications may require Stick Stuck Check to be turned off. For ex- ample: Large stick electrodes operat- ing at high amperages would require Stick Stuck Check to be turned off.On

Selecting Tungsten Electrode (Wear Clean Gloves To Prevent Contamination Of Tungsten) Not all tungsten electrode manufacturers use the same colors to identify tungsten type. Contact the tungsten electrode manufacturer or reference the product packaging to identify the tungsten you are using.

Figures listed are a guide and are a composite of recommendations from American Welding Society (AWS) and electrode manufacturers. 12-2. Preparing Tungsten Electrode For DC Electrode Negative (DCEN) Welding Or AC Welding With Inverter Machines Grinding the tungsten electrode produces dust and flying sparks which can cause injury and start fires. Use local exhaust (forced ventilation) at the grinder or wear an approved respirator. Read MSDS for safety information. Consider using tungsten containing ceria, lanthana, or yttria instead of thoria. Grinding dust from thoriated electrodes contains low-level radioactive material. Properly dispose of grinder dust in an environmentally safe way. Wear proper face, hand, and body protection. Keep flammables away. Ideal Tungsten Preparation − Stable Arc 2-1/2 Times Electrode Diameter 1 Grinding Wheel Grind end of tungsten on fine grit, hard abrasive wheel before welding. Do not use wheel for other jobs or tungsten can become contaminated causing lower weld quality. 2 Tungsten Electrode A 2% ceriated tungsten is recommended. 3 Flat Diameter of this flat determines amperage capacity. 4 Straight Ground Grind lengthwise, not radial. 1 3 4 Causes Wandering Arc 2 Wrong Tungsten Radial Grinding PreparationEffective January 1, 2016 (Equipment with a serial number preface of MG or newer) This limited warranty supersedes all previous Miller warranties and is exclusive with no other guarantees or warranties expressed or implied.
