MMP280e

Duty cycle

The duty cycle refers to the time as a percentage of a ten--minute period that you can weld at a cer-

tain load without overloading.

Enclosure class

The IP code indicates the enclosure class, i. e. the degree of protection against penetration by solid

objects or water. Equipment marked IP23 is designed for indoor and outdoor use.

Application class

The symbol indicates that the power source is designed for use in areas with increased

electrical hazard.

5 INSTALLATION

The installation must be executed by a professional.

WA NING!

This product is intended for industrial use. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio

interference. It is the user’s responsibility to take adequate precautions.

5.1 Placing

Position the welding power source such way that its cooling air inlets and outlets are

not obstructed.

5.2 Electrical installation

Mains voltage

All machines are factory configured for highest rated voltage and are fitted with appropriate marking

tape on the mains cable.

Mains voltage selection

Migmasterr280 Pro is delivered in versions configurable for following mains voltages:

S208/230V and

S208/230/460/575V

actory configuration is set for 230V and 575V respectively.

In order to adapt the machines for the other voltages, it is necessary to reconnect the main

transformer TM1 and control transformer TC1 as shown and described on the schematic diagrams.

5.3 Welding voltage polarity

Welding voltage polarity may be changed as shown below.

5.4 Mains power supply

Check that the unit is connected to the correct mains power supply voltage, and that it is protected by

the correct fuse size. A protective earth connection must be made, in accordance with regulations.

General safety regulations for the handling of the equipment can be found on

page 4. Read through before you start using the equipment

WA NING!

Rotating parts can cause injury, take great care.

WA NING -- TIPPING ISK!

There is a risk of tipping while transportation and operation, if the welding machine leans

more than 10

. In that case appropriate securing has to be provided !

6.1 Connection and control devices

1Mains supply switch 5b Connector [--], low inductance, for welding gun or

return cable (welding polarity change--over)

2Orange indicating lamp, overheating 6Knob for spot welding -- ON/O and time setting

2a White indicating lamp “ON” 7Knob for wire speed setting

3Welding voltage switch (fine) 8Digital instrument -- V/A

3a Welding voltage switch (coarse) 9Connector for ”spool--on gun” (control wire)

4EURO -- connector for welding gun 10 Knob for burn--back time setting

(located in wire feeder compartment)

5Connector [+] for “electrode” or return cable

(welding polarity change--over) 11 ”Electrode” cable with plug, connected to the weld-

ing gun connector (welding polarity change--over)

5a Connector [--], high inductance, for welding gun

or return cable (welding polarity change--over) 12 Creep start switch

(located in wire feeder compartment)

-- 10 --

MMP280e

6.2 Switching--on and overheating protection

When machine is switched on with switch [1], the indicating lamp “ON” is lit. If the ma-

chine is not overheated (lamp [2] is off) it is ready to work. If the internal temperature

during welding becomes too high, the welding is interrupted and disabled. This state is

indicated by permanent lighting of the orange indicating lamp [2] on the front of the unit.

It resets automatically when the temperature falls down.

6.3 Operation

Operator can manually select and set welding parameters as follows:

Srequired welding voltage (and thus welding current) with knob [3], [3a]

Warning: Operating the knobs [3], [3a] during the welding process (loaded

power source) can cause heavy damage to the unit !!!

Sappropriate wire feed speed with knob [7]

Sinitial wire speed (”creep start”) with selector [12] (wire feeder compartment)

Sburn--back time with knob [10] (wire feeder compartment)

Sspot welding (optional), activated by turning the knob [6] clockwise, spot welding

time increases while turning the knob [6] clockwise; set knob [6] in the left utmost

position in order to return to the continuous welding.

If the welding gun is used, welding process starts after its trigger is pressed and the wire

speed is controlled with potentiometer [7] on the front panel.

If the spool--on gun is used, welding process starts after its trigger is pressed, the spool--

on gun motor starts and wire speed is controlled with the potentiometer in the spool--on

gun grip.

Note: or spool--on gun current cable connection it is necessary to use the OKC ”T”

adapter or Adapter KIT ST--23A, depending on used spool gun (see Accessories on

page 46).

Machine is fitted with V/A digital instrument [8] (with ”hold” function i.e. memorising of

the last values of welding voltage and current).

6.4 eplacing and inserting wire

SOpen the side panel.

SPlace the spool on the hub and secure it with the lock.

SDisconnect the pressure sensor by folding it backwards, the pressure rollers

slide up.

SStraighten out the new wire 10--20 cm. ile away burrs and sharp edges from the

end of the wire before inserting it into the wire feed unit.

SMake sure that the wire goes properly into the feed roller track and into the outlet

nozzle and the wire guide.

SSecure the pressure sensor.

SClose the side panel.
