Unstable Welding
Voltage
Wire Feed Jam
Water Flow Too Low
Water Flow Detected
Description
The generator is unable to
deliver the pre-set value
(voltage) requested by the
wire feeder.
It can appears:
1.
During welding:
Motor is at maximum
power and is not able to
maintain the pre-set WFS
value.
The wire feeder has
detected:
•
No water flow.
•
Too low water flow
(less than 0.7
liter/min).
The wire feeder has
detected water flow while
the setting in select menu
is water cooler "no".
Misadjustment(s)
•
Check that welding pre-set
parameters (WFS and
Voltage) matches the
application (wire diameter,
thickness, gas...).
•
Check the polarity switch
position of the generator
correspond to the polarity
of the wire feeder
connection.
•
Check the remote control
switch of the generator set
on "Remote" position.
•
Check if pre-set
parameters are not above
the specified limit of the
generator.
•
Verify wire can move freely
in cable.
•
Verify spool brake is not
set too high.
•
Check if the water cooler is
on and filled up with
coolant.
•
Check the water circuit
including water cooled
torch connection.
•
The setting of water cooler
is wrong in the select
menu.
Note: In this case, flow meter
protection is not used.
A-11
Corrective Action
•
Adjust parameters.
•
Correct polarity switch
position and wire feeder
polarity connection.
•
Select "remote" position.
•
Reduce the parameters or
use an higher rating
generator.
•
Clean or replace the liner.
•
Adjust spool brake.
•
Fill up and switch on water
cooler.
•
Remove blockage in water
circuit.
•
Select the correct setting of
the water cooler in select
menu.
