SAFeTY pReCAUTIONS

Safety precautions Safety - english

WARNINg: These Safety Precautions are for your protection. They summarize pre-cautionary information from the references listed in Additional Safety Information sec-

tion. Before performing any installation or operating procedures, be sure to read and follow the safety precau-tions listed below as well as all other manuals, material safety data sheets, labels, etc. Failure to observe Safety Precautions can result in injury or death.

pROTeCT YOURSeLF AND OTheRS -- Some welding, cutting, and gouging processes are noisy and require ear protection. The arc, like the sun, emits ultraviolet (UV) and other radiation

and can injure skin and eyes. hot metal can cause burns. Training in the proper use of the processes and equipment is essential to prevent accidents. Therefore:

1. Always wear safety glasses with side shields in any work area, even if welding helmets, face shields, and goggles are also required.

2. Use a face shield fitted with the correct filter and cover plates to protect your eyes, face, neck, and ears from sparks and rays of the arc when operating or observing operations. Warn bystanders not to watch the arc and not to expose themselves to the rays of the electric-arc or hot metal.

3. Wear flameproof gauntlet type gloves, heavy long-sleeve shirt, cuffless trousers, high-topped shoes, and a welding helmet or cap for hair protection, to protect against arc rays and hot sparks or hot metal. A flameproof apron may also be desirable as protec-tion against radiated heat and sparks.

4. Hot sparks or metal can lodge in rolled up sleeves, trouser cuffs, or pockets. Sleeves and collars should be kept buttoned, and open pockets eliminated from the front of clothing.

5. Protect other personnel from arc rays and hot sparks with a suitable non-flammable partition or curtains.

6. Use goggles over safety glasses when chipping slag or grinding. Chipped slag may be hot and can fly far. Bystanders should also wear goggles over safety glasses.

FIReS AND expLOSIONS -- heat from flames and arcs can start fires. hot slag or sparks can also cause fires and explosions. Therefore:

1. Remove all combustible materials well away from the work area or cover the materials with a protec-tive non-flammable covering. Combustible materials include wood, cloth, sawdust, liquid and gas fuels, solvents, paints and coatings, paper, etc.

2. Hot sparks or hot metal can fall through cracks or crevices in floors or wall openings and cause a hid-den smoldering fire or fires on the floor below. Make certain that such openings are protected from hot sparks and metal.“

3. Do not weld, cut or perform other hot work until the workpiece has been completely cleaned so that there are no substances on the workpiece which might produce flammable or toxic vapors. Do not do hot work on closed containers. They may explode.

4. Have fire extinguishing equipment handy for instant use, such as a garden hose, water pail, sand bucket, or portable fire extinguisher. Be sure you are trained in its use.

5. Do not use equipment beyond its ratings. For ex-ample, overloaded welding cable can overheat and create a fire hazard.

6. After completing operations, inspect the work area to make certain there are no hot sparks or hot metal which could cause a later fire. Use fire watchers when necessary.

7. For additional information, refer to NFPA Standard 51B, "Fire Prevention in Use of Cutting and Welding Processes", available from the National Fire Protec-tion Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

eLeCTRICAL ShOCK -- Contact with live electrical parts and ground can cause severe injury or death. DO NOT use AC welding current in damp areas, if movement is confined, or if there is danger of falling.

6

SAFeTY pReCAUTIONS

1. Be sure the power source frame (chassis) is con-nected to the ground system of the input power.

2. Connect the workpiece to a good electrical ground.

3. Connect the work cable to the workpiece. A poor or missing connection can expose you or others to a fatal shock.

4. Use well-maintained equipment. Replace worn or damaged cables.

5. Keep everything dry, including clothing, work

area, cables, torch/electrode holder, and power source.

6. Make sure that all parts of your body are insulated from work and from ground.

7. Do not stand directly on metal or the earth while working in tight quarters or a damp area; stand on dry boards or an insulating platform and wear rubber-soled shoes.

8. Put on dry, hole-free gloves before turning on the power.

9. Turn off the power before removing your gloves.

10. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (listed on next page) for specific grounding recommenda-tions. Do not mistake the work lead for a ground cable.

eLeCTRIC AND MAgNeTIC FIeLDS — May be dangerous. electric cur-rent flowing through any conduc-tor causes localized electric and Magnetic Fields (eMF). Welding and

cutting current creates eMF around welding cables and welding machines. Therefore:

1. Welders having pacemakers should consult their physician before welding. EMF may interfere with some pacemakers.

2. Exposure to EMF may have other health effects which are unknown.

3. Welders should use the following procedures to minimize exposure to EMF:

A. Route the electrode and work cables together. Secure them with tape when possible.

B. Never coil the torch or work cable around your body.

C. Do not place your body between the torch and work cables. Route cables on the same side of your body.

D. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as possible to the area being welded.

E. Keep welding power source and cables as far away from your body as possible.

FUMeS AND gASeS -- Fumes and gases, can cause discomfort or harm, particularly in confined spaces. Do not breathe fumes and gases. Shield-ing gases can cause asphyxiation.

Therefore:

1. Always provide adequate ventilation in the work area by natural or mechanical means. Do not weld, cut, or gouge on materials such as galvanized steel, stain-less steel, copper, zinc, lead, beryllium, or cadmium unless positive mechanical ventilation is provided. Do not breathe fumes from these materials.

2. Do not operate near degreasing and spraying opera-tions. The heat or arc rays can react with chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors to form phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritant gases.

3. If you develop momentary eye, nose, or throat ir-ritation while operating, this is an indication that ventilation is not adequate. Stop work and take necessary steps to improve ventilation in the work area. Do not continue to operate if physical discom-fort persists.

4. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (see listing below) for specific ventilation recommendations.

soudage c.a. dans un endroit humide, en espace restreint ou si un danger de chute se pose.

AVeRTISSeMeNT : Ces règles de sécurité ont pour but d'assurer votre protection. Ils récapitulent les informations de précaution provenant des références dans la section

des Informations de sécurité supplémentaires. Avant de procéder à l'installation ou d'utiliser l'unité, assurez-vous de lire et de suivre les précautions de sécurité ci-dessous, dans les manuels, les fiches d'information sur la sécurité du matériel et sur les étiquettes, etc. Tout défaut d'observer ces précautions de sécurité peut entraîner des blessures graves ou mortelles.

pROTÉgeZ-VOUS -- Les processus de soudage, de coupage et de gougeage produisent un niveau de bruit élevé et

exige l'emploi d'une protection auditive. L'arc, tout comme le soleil, émet des rayons ultraviolets en plus d'autre rayons qui peuvent causer des blessures à la peau et les yeux. Le métal incandescent peut causer des brûlures. Une formation reliée à l'usage des processus et de l'équipement est essentielle pour prévenir les accidents. par conséquent: 1. Portez des lunettes protectrices munies d'écrans la-

téraux lorsque vous êtes dans l'aire de travail, même si vous devez porter un casque de soudeur, un écran facial ou des lunettes étanches.

2. Portez un écran facial muni de verres filtrants et de plaques protectrices appropriées afin de protéger vos yeux, votre visage, votre cou et vos oreilles des étincelles et des rayons de l'arc lors d'une opération ou lorsque vous observez une opération. Avertissez les personnes se trouvant à proximité de ne pas re-garder l'arc et de ne pas s'exposer aux rayons de l'arc électrique ou le métal incandescent.

3. Portez des gants ignifugiés à crispin, une chemise épaisse à manches longues, des pantalons sans rebord et des chaussures montantes afin de vous protéger des rayons de l'arc, des étincelles et du métal incandescent, en plus d'un casque de soudeur ou casquette pour protéger vos cheveux. Il est également recommandé de porter un tablier ininflammable afin de vous proté-ger des étincelles et de la chaleur par rayonnement.

4. Les étincelles et les projections de métal incandescent risquent de se loger dans les manches retroussées, les rebords de pantalons ou les poches. Il est recom-mandé de garder boutonnés le col et les manches et de porter des vêtements sans poches en avant.

5. Protégez toute personne se trouvant à proximité des étincelles et des rayons de l'arc à l'aide d'un rideau ou d'une cloison ininflammable.

6. Portez des lunettes étanches par dessus vos lunettes de sécurité lors des opérations d'écaillage ou de meulage du laitier. Les écailles de laitier incandescent peuvent être projetées à des distances considérables. Les personnes se trouvant à proximité doivent égale-ment porter des lunettes étanches par dessus leur lunettes de sécurité.

SÉCURITÉ

3. Les soudeurs doivent suivre les procédures suivantes pour minimiser l'exposition aux champs électriques et magnétiques :

A. Acheminez l'électrode et les câbles de masse ensemble. Fixez-les à l'aide d'une bande adhésive lorsque possible.

B. Ne jamais enrouler la torche ou le câble de masse autour de votre corps.

C. Ne jamais vous placer entre la torche et les câbles de masse. Acheminez tous les câbles sur le même côté de votre corps.

D. Branchez le câble de masse à la pièce à traiter le plus près possible de la section à souder.

E. Veillez à garder la source d'alimentation pour le soudage et les câbles à une distance appropriée de votre corps.

LeS VApeURS eT LeS gAZ -- peuvent causer un malaise ou des dommages corporels, plus particulièrement dans les espaces restreints. Ne re-spirez pas les vapeurs et les gaz. Le gaz de protection risque de causer l'asphyxie. par conséquent :

1. Assurez en permanence une ventilation adéquate dans l'aire de travail en maintenant une ventila-tion naturelle ou à l'aide de moyens mécanique. N'effectuez jamais de travaux de soudage, de coupage ou de gougeage sur des matériaux tels que l'acier galvanisé, l'acier inoxydable, le cuivre, le zinc, le plomb, le berylliym ou le cadmium en l'absence de moyens mécaniques de ventilation efficaces. Ne respirez pas les vapeurs de ces matériaux.

2. N'effectuez jamais de travaux à proximité d'une opération de dégraissage ou de pulvérisation. Lor-sque la chaleur

ou le rayonnement de l'arc entre en contact avec les vapeurs d'hydrocarbure chloré, ceci peut déclencher la formation de phosgène ou d'autres gaz irritants, tous extrêmement toxiques.

3. Une irritation momentanée des yeux, du nez ou de la gorge au cours d'une opération indique que la ven-tilation n'est pas adéquate. Cessez votre travail afin de prendre les mesures nécessaires pour améliorer la ventilation dans l'aire de travail. Ne poursuivez pas l'opération si le malaise persiste.

4. Consultez ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (à la page suivante) pour des recommandations spécifiques concernant la ventilation.

1. Assurez-vous que le châssis de la source d'alimentation est branché au système de mise à la terre de l'alimentation d'entrée.

2. Branchez la pièce à traiter à une bonne mise de terre électrique.

3. Branchez le câble de masse à la pièce à traiter et assurez une bonne connexion afin d'éviter le risque de choc électrique mortel.

4. Utilisez toujours un équipement correctement entretenu. Remplacez les câbles usés ou endom-magés.

5. Veillez à garder votre environnement sec, incluant les vêtements, l'aire de travail, les câbles, le porte-électrode/torche et la source d'alimentation.

6. Assurez-vous que tout votre corps est bien isolé de la pièce à traiter et des pièces de la mise à la terre.

7. Si vous devez effectuer votre travail dans un espace restreint ou humide, ne tenez vous pas directe-ment sur le métal ou sur la terre; tenez-vous sur des planches sèches ou une plate-forme isolée et portez des chaussures à semelles de caoutchouc.

SeCTION 1 DeSCRIpTION

NOTeUsing the Dual Schedule Pulse MMI panel in combination with a power source with pulse built-in is NOT recommended.

NOTeFor ALL dual schedule MMI panels, a weld schedule can be disabled by placing the wire feed speed knob to the minimum position or "0" (zero) position. This will eliminate the accidental triggering of the Mig gun into the alternate weld schedule.

NOTeThe DuraDrive feeder is not compatible and cannot be used with the UltraPulse 450i Pendant or the DigiPulse power source. Use with the 350 MPi UltraPulse Pendant limits the MMI operation to the STANDARD mode ONLY.

NOTeDual schedule parameter switching from the gun trigger is disabled when TRIGGER LOCK is turned "ON".

SAFeTY

Before this MMI Panel Kit put into opera-tion, the safety section at the front of this manual should be read completely. This will help avoid possible injury due to misuse or improper installation.

The definitions relating to the:

safety notations are described at the end of the Safety Section in the front of this manual — read them and their specific text refer-ences carefully.

1.0 . DeSCRIpTION A. Digital Dual Schedule pulse MMI KitThe Digital Dual Schedule Pulse MMI Kit is designed to provide simple to use, high quality, synergic pulsed Mig welding. Synergic pulsed Mig welding means that pulse parameters (pulse height, pulse width, background current and pulse frequency) are automatically adjusted as you change wire feed speed.

The Digital Dual Schedule Pulse MMI panel provides a Pulse Arc VOLTS Trim that allows the operator to fine tune the pulse arc length. The VOLTS knob becomes the pulse arc length adjustment when in the pulse process mode. The operator can change to standard CV Mig welding by simply moving the pULSe /STANDARD switch to the STANDARD position.

Figure 1-1. Digital Dual Schedule pulse MMI panel

Two welding parameters can be preset on the panel in either the Standard (CV) or pulse process mode. The arc starting schedule is selected with the SCheDULe select switch (A or B). The toggle switch position determines the welding schedule to be used when the gun trigger is depressed. The welding schedules (parameters) can be switched while welding by using the "Click Click" trigger technique where the gun trigger is released and depressed quickly (within .2 sec). This method of welding is used for providing a hot start, crater fill or gap filling welding param-eter in addition to the standard welding parameters typically used for the given weld application. This MMI panel MUST be used with a PULSE SELECTION module installed on the wire feeder control cabinet rear panel.

18

B. pulse Selection panel

The PULSE SELECTION panel is mounted on the rear panel of the DuraDrive control cabinet and is used to select the electrode WIRe TYpe and DIAMeTeR. See the chart below for alloys and diameters supported on each power source.

The PULSE SELECTION panel has an option of using a trigger latch on, off or trigger latch with crater fill selection. The crater fill parameter is selectable on either schedule A or B.

C. eSAB power Sources

The Digital Dual Schedule pulse MMI Kit consists of the Digital Dual Schedule Pulse MMI panel (PN-0558003005) and the Pulse Selection panel (PN-0558003007). The kit is designed for welding applications where the pulse welding parameters are supplied and controlled from the DuraDrive 4-30 or DuraDrive 4-48 wire feeder. The following ESAB power sources MUST be used:

ESAB 350Mpi / MTS-3500i ESAB MultiPower 460 (non-pulse version) ESAB SVI-450i

Table 1-2. MMI pANeLS and pOWeR SOURCeS

The DuraDrive feeder is shipped configured for pulsing the ESAB 350Mpi / MTS-3500i and MultiPower 460 (non-pulse model) power source. Other ESAB power sources and competitors power sources are limited to the CV STANDARD weld-ing mode ONLY and will not operate in the pulse process mode using this MMI panel.

Pulsing with the SVI-450i power source is done by reconfiguring the DuraDrive and SVI-450i for pulse welding compatibility. See setup instructions for SVI-450i power source configuration for details.

The following instructions are intended to supplement the manuals supplied with the wire feeder and power source. Be sure to follow all installation, operation and safety information provided by these manuals.

A. MMI Dual Set-Up and OperationTwo welding parameters can be preset on the panel in either the STANDARD (CV) or pULSe process mode. The arc starting schedule is selected with the SCheDULe switch. The SCheDULe toggle switch position determines the welding schedule to be used when the gun trigger is depressed. The weld-ing schedules (parameters) can be switched between schedule A & B while welding by using the "Click Click" trigger technique. If the gun trigger is released and depressed quickly (within .2 sec) the weld schedule will switch to the alternate schedule. This method of welding is used for providing a hot start, crater fill or gap filling welding parameter in addition to the standard welding parameters typically used for the given weld application.

B. power Source and DuraDrive STANDARD (CV) Set-Up1. Turn the power source and DuraDrive wire feeder "ON".2. Place the power source pROCeSS SeLeCTOR on the Power Source switch

(if present) in the Mig position and the MIg SeLeCTOR switch (if present) to the type of Mig wire to be used. (Example - 350Mpi / MTS-3500i)

3. Position the ReMOTe/pANeL switch on the power source to the ReMOTe position.

4. Choose SCheDULe A using the SCheDULe SeLeCT toggle switch on the Dual Schedule MMI panel and set a wire feed speed.

5. Make a weld and adjust the arc voltage and wire feed as needed for good welding characteristics.

6. Choose SCheDULe B using the SCheDULe SeLeCT toggle switch on the Dual Schedule MMI panel and set a wire feed speed.

7. Make a weld and adjust the arc voltage and wire feed as needed for good welding characteristics.

8. Position the SCheDULe SeLeCT toggle switch to the preferred schedule for starting the weld.

9. While welding, the weld schedule can be changed from the Mig gun trigger by using the "Click Click" method. a. After starting the weld, double click the gun trigger (within .2 seconds)

and the MMI will switch to the second weld schedule. b. Switch back to the first weld schedule by double clicking the trigger

again.

C. pulse Selection Module and MMI panel Set-Up1. Set the WIRe TYpe and WIRe DIAMeTeR knobs on the pULSe SeLeCTION

module to the electrode wire type and diameter installed on the DuraDrive wire feeder. a. A "STEADY" - "NO PROGRAM" light indicates there is no program for

the material and wire diameter selected. b. A "BLINKING" - "NO PROGRAM" light means the wire feed speed

chosen is outside of the recommended range. A weld can still be made but good welding arc stability cannot be guaranteed and additional arc trimming might be needed.

2. Place the pULSe/STANDARD toggle switch to the pULSe position. 3. Choose SCheDULe A using the SCheDULe SeLeCT toggle switch on the

SeCTION 3 OpeRATION

NOTeFor ALL dual schedule MMI panels, a weld schedule can be disabled by placing the wire feed speed knob to the minimum position or "0" (zero) position. This will eliminate the accidental triggering of the Mig gun into the alternate weld schedule.

NOTEArc voltage CANNOT be preset on the digital meter. Actual arc voltage will be displayed once welding begins.

NOTeDual schedule parameter switching from the gum trigger is disabled when TRIGGER LOCK is turned "ON".

28

NOTeThe RED light on the MMI panel will "Blink" when the wire feed speed is out of range.

NOTeThe digital VOLT METER will read "0" in the center or #5 position. ARC TRIM is used to fine tune the arc length performance. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the arc length or counterclockwise to decrease the arc. The number shown on the digital display will go plus (clockwise) and minus (counterclock-wise). This number indicates the number of pulses per second (pulse frequency) above or below the programmed parameters in the DuraDrive control circuitry.

SeCTION 3 OpeRATION

and the MMI will switch to the second weld schedule. b. Switch back to the first weld schedule by double clicking the trigger

again.

D. pulse process control1. Use a tip-to-work distance of 3/8" to 5/8". This refers to the distance between

the end of the Mig gun contact tip and the plate or weld puddle.2. For the best arc stability, keep the arc on the front edge of the molten

puddle and use a 5 to 10 degree gun angle from the vertical.3. The VOLTS knob on the Pulse MMI panel is used to trim the arc length

by turning the dial clockwise to lengthen the arc or counterclockwise to shorten the arc. If the arc is "crackling" or if spatter is excessive, lengthen the arc. If the arc is "fluttering" or difficult to control, then shorten the arc length.

e. pulse MIg Arc Stability Many variables can affect the arc stability of pulse MIG welding. Some examples are:

High resistance cables and connectionsLong welding cables (greater than 60 ft.)Differences in shielding gas compositionsDifferences in weld wire chemistryWater vs. air cooled gunsBase metal surface condition

29

SeCTION 3 OpeRATION

TABLe 3-1. Material and Shielding gases

When adverse conditions are present, the pulse arc stability is sometimes less than desirable. The arc will "crackle" and produce higher than normal spatter levels. This occurs due to higher resistances in the welding circuit causing changes, pulse waveform and average current levels. The VOLTS knob on the DuraDrive MMI Panel adjusts the pulse frequency to accommodate small changes in the welding equipment set-up and base material variations to achieve a stable pulse welding condition.

F. Shielding gasesTable 3-1 lists the range of shielding gases that can be used with the Pulse MMI Panel. The wire burn-off rate and synergic operation will vary with changes in shielding gas. The Pulse MMI VOLTS knob is used to compensate for changes in shield gas composition.

g. pulse parametersTables 3-2 through 3-12 list the approximate pulse welding parameters for each material and diameter. These are provided for general reference only. Actual pulse parameters can vary with the equipment set-up, welding application and shield-ing gas being used. The wire feed speed ranges shown in the tables are the same as programmed into the DuraDrive software. Attempting to weld outside of the suggested speed ranges will result in a "blinking" indicator light on the MMI panel. A "steady" light on the panel indicates the wire material and diameter combination selected does not have any pulse data programmed.
