Setting The Shielding Gas Volume; Feeding In The Wire - Abicor Binzel RB Serie Instructivo De Servicio

MAG Welding torches
NOTICE
• Ensure that the coolant supply and return hoses have been correctly installed. Coolant
supply = blue, coolant return = red.
• Do not use deionised or demineralised water as coolant or for leak and flow tests.
This may shorten your welding torch's service life.
• For liquid-cooled welding torches, we recommend using ABICOR BINZEL BTC coolant.
 Please consult the applicable safety data sheet.
• The cooling system must be purged of any air each time the device is commissioned and
after every cable assembly change: disconnect the coolant return hose from the coolant
recirculator and hold it over a collection receptacle. Close the opening on the coolant
return hose. Then re-open it by abruptly releasing it. Repeat until the coolant flows into the
collection receptacle continuously and without air bubbles.

4.5 Setting the shielding gas volume

NOTICE
• The type and amount of shielding gas used depend on the welding task and the gas
nozzle geometry.
• Make all shielding gas connections gas-tight.
• To prevent the shielding gas supply from becoming clogged by impurities, the cylinder
valve must be opened briefly before connecting the cylinder. This will expel any impurities
that may be present.

4.6 Feeding in the wire

CAUTION
Risk of injury
Puncture or cut-in wounds may be caused by the wire electrode.
• Keep your hands out of the danger zone.
• Wear the correct protective gloves.
NOTICE
• Each time the wire is changed, make sure that the cutting point is free of burrs and not
bent.
1 Lay the cable assembly connected to the machine side out straight.
2 Insert the wire into the wire feeder as specified by the manufacturer.
3 Press the 'zero-current wire feed' trigger on the wire feeder until the wire comes out of the
contact tip.
