Mar ‘95
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDSmay be dangerous
2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding current creates EMF fields around welding cables and welding machines
2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, andwelders having a pacemaker should consult their physicianbefore welding.
2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other healtheffects which are now not known.
2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order tominimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:
2.d.1. Route the electrode and work cables together - Securethem with tape when possible.
2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body.
2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode andwork cables. If the electrode cable is on your right side, the work cable should also be on your right side.
2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close aspossible to the area being welded.
2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.
1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove theradiator pressure cap when the engine ishot.

ARC RAYS can burn.4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover
plates to protect your eyes from sparks andthe rays of the arc when welding or observingopen arc welding. Headshield and filter lensshould conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.
4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistantmaterial to protect your skin and that of your helpers fromthe arc rays.
4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammablescreening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor exposethemselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits
are electrically “hot” when the welder is on.Do not touch these “hot” parts with your bareskin or wet clothing. Wear dry, hole-freegloves to insulate hands.
3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation.Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your fullarea of physical contact with work and ground.
In addition to the normal safety precautions, if weldingmust be performed under electrically hazardousconditions (in damp locations or while wearing wetclothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings orscaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting,kneeling or lying, if there is a high risk of unavoidable oraccidental contact with the workpiece or ground) usethe following equipment:
• Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder.• DC Manual (Stick) Welder.• AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.
3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomaticwelding gun are also electrically “hot”.
3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electricalconnection with the metal being welded. The connectionshould be as close as possible to the area being welded.
3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical(earth) ground.
3.f. Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable andwelding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replacedamaged insulation.
3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.
3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts ofelectrode holders connected to two welders because voltagebetween the two can be the total of the open circuit voltageof both welders.
3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protectyourself from a fall should you get a shock.
3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8.
FUMES AND GASEScan be dangerous.5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases
hazardous to health. Avoid breathing thesefumes and gases.When welding, keepyour head out of the fume. Use enoughventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep
fumes and gases away from the breathing zone. Whenwelding with electrodes which require specialventilation such as stainless or hard facing (seeinstructions on container or MSDS) or on lead orcadmium plated steel and other metals or coatingswhich produce highly toxic fumes, keep exposure aslow as possible and below Threshold Limit Values (TLV)using local exhaust or mechanical ventilation. Inconfined spaces or in some circumstances, outdoors, arespirator may be required. Additional precautions arealso required when welding on galvanized steel.
5.b. Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vaporscoming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations.The heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors toform phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating products.
5.c. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air andcause injury or death. Always use enough ventilation,especially in confined areas, to insure breathing air is safe.
5.d. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions for thisequipment and the consumables to be used, including thematerial safety data sheet (MSDS) and follow youremployer’s safety practices. MSDS forms are available fromyour welding distributor or from the manufacturer.

WELDING SPARKS cancause fire or explosion.6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area.
If this is not possible, cover them to preventthe welding sparks from starting a fire.Remember that welding sparks and hot
materials from welding can easily go through small cracksand openings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding nearhydraulic lines. Have a fire extinguisher readily available.
6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site,special precautions should be used to prevent hazardoussituations. Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSIStandard Z49.1) and the operating information for theequipment being used.
6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrodecircuit is touching the work or ground. Accidental contact cancause overheating and create a fire hazard.
6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until theproper steps have been taken to insure that such procedureswill not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substancesinside. They can cause an explosion even though they havebeen “cleaned”. For information, purchase “RecommendedSafe Practices for the Preparation for Welding and Cutting ofContainers and Piping That Have Held HazardousSubstances”, AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society(see address above).
6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting orwelding. They may explode.
6.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oilfree protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt,cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wearear plugs when welding out of position or in confined places.Always wear safety glasses with side shields when in awelding area.
6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the weldingarea as practical. Work cables connected to the buildingframework or other locations away from the welding areaincrease the possibility of the welding current passingthrough lifting chains, crane cables or other alternate circuits.This can create fire hazards or overheat lifting chains orcables until they fail.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉPour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instructionset les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent dans cemanuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté générales suiv-antes:
Sûreté Pour Soudage A L’Arc1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:
a. Les circuits à l’électrode et à la piéce sont sous tensionquand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujourstout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nueou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sanstrous pour isoler les mains.
b. Faire trés attention de bien s’isoler de la masse quand onsoude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un plancher met-allique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une grandepartie du corps peut être en contact avec la masse.
c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câble desoudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr état defonc-tionnement.
d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans l’eau pour lerefroidir.
e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tensiondes porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à soud-er parce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être letotal de la tension à vide des deux machines.
f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source decourant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautionspour le porte-électrode s’applicuent aussi au pistolet desoudage.
2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se protégercontre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne jamaisenrouler le câble-électrode autour de n’importe quelle partiedu corps.
3. Un coup d’arc peut être plus sévère qu’un coup de soliel,donc:
a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant appropriéainsi qu’un verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du ray-onnement de l’arc et des projections quand on soude ouquand on regarde l’arc.
b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger lapeau de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement del‘arc.
c. Protéger l’autre personnel travaillant à proximité ausoudage à l’aide d’écrans appropriés et non-inflammables.
4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de l’arc desoudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libresde l’huile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse, pan-talons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.
5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone desoudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans les
zones où l’on pique le laitier.
6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin deprévenir tout risque d’incendie dû aux étincelles.
7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé dela masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer unéchauffement et un risque d’incendie.
8. S’assurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possible dela zone de travail qu’il est pratique de le faire. Si on place lamasse sur la charpente de la construction ou d’autres endroitséloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risque de voirpasser le courant de soudage par les chaines de levage,câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut provoquer desrisques d’incendie ou d’echauffement des chaines et descâbles jusqu’à ce qu’ils se rompent.
9. Assurer une ventilation suffisante dans la zone de soudage.Ceci est particuliérement important pour le soudage de tôlesgalvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal quiproduit des fumeés toxiques.
10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenantd’opérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. Lachaleur ou les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir avec les vapeursdu solvant pour produire du phosgéne (gas fortement toxique)ou autres produits irritants.
11. Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements sur la sûreté, voirle code “Code for safety in welding and cutting” CSA StandardW 117.2-1974.
PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POURLES MACHINES À SOUDER ÀTRANSFORMATEUR ET ÀREDRESSEUR
1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code del’électricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dispositifde montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à unebonne mise à la terre.
2. Autant que possible, I’installation et l’entretien du poste seronteffectués par un électricien qualifié.
3. Avant de faires des travaux à l’interieur de poste, la debranch-er à l’interrupteur à la boite de fusibles.
4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leurplace.
1Also called “inverse time” or “thermal/magnetic” circuit breakers; circuit breakers which have a delay in tripping action that decreases as the magnitude of the current increases.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.• Only qualified personnel should
perform this installation.
• Turn the input power OFF at thedisconnect switch or fuse boxbefore working on this equipment.
• Turn the Power Switch on the CV-655 “OFF” beforeconnecting or disconnecting output cables, wirefeeder or remote connections, or other equipment.
• Do not touch electrically hot parts.
• Always connect the CV-655 grounding terminal(located on the welder near the reconnect panel) to agood electrical earth ground.
SELECT SUITABLE LOCATIONPlace the welder where clean cooling air can freely cir-culate in through the front louvers and out through therear louvers. Dirt, dust or any foreign material that canbe drawn into the welder should be kept at a mini-mum. Failure to observe these precautions can resultin excessive operating temperatures and nuisanceshut-downs.
STACKINGThe CV-655 may be stacked three-high provided thebottom machine is on a stable, hard, level surface. Besure that the two pins in the roof fit into the slots in thebase of the CV-655 above it.
TILTINGDo not place the machine on a surface that is inclinedenough to create a risk of the machine falling over.
ELECTRICALINPUT CONNECTIONSBefore installing the machine check that the input sup-ply voltage, phase, and frequency are the same as thevoltage, phase, and frequency as specified on thewelder nameplate.
Use input wire sizes that meet local electrical codes orsee the Technical Specifications page in this manual.
Input power supply entry is through the hole in theCase Back Assembly. See Figure A.1 for the locationof the machine’s input cable entry opening, InputContactor (CR1), and reconnect panel.
FUSE AND WIRE SIZESProtect the input circuit with the super lag fuses ordelay type circuit breakers listed on the TechnicalSpecifications page of this manual for the machinebeing used. They are also called inverse time or ther-mal/magnetic circuit breakers.
DO NOT use fuses or circuit breakers with a lower amprating than recommended. This can result in “nui-sance” tripping caused by inrush current even whenmachine is not being used for welding at high outputcurrents.
GROUND CONNECTIONGround the frame of the machine. A ground terminal marked with the symbol is located insidethe case back of the machine near the input contactor.Access to the input box assembly is at the upper rearof the machine. See your local and national electricalcodes for proper grounding methods. Use groundingwire sizes that meet local electrical codes or see theTechnical Specifications page in this manual.

1. INPUT POWER ON/OFF SWITCH - This tog-gle switch turns the machine on or off. Putting theswitch in the ON position energizes the machine’sinput contactor applying input power to the machine.Switching the switch to the OFF position de-energizes the input contactor.
2. PILOT LIGHT - When the power switch is in the ONposition the machine’s white pilot light will illuminate.If the input contactor de-energizes the machine in anoverload situation the pilot will still illuminate. In thissituation it will be necessary to reset the machine byswitching the power switch to the OFF then ON posi-tion. (See Overload Protection Section)
3. OUTPUT VOLTAGE CONTROL - This controlprovides continuous control of the machine’s outputvoltage from minimum to maximum (typical full potrange between 15 to 44 volts) as it is rotated clock-wise.
4. OUTPUT TERMINALS ON/REMOTE - When thisswitch is in the REMOTE position, the CV-655’soutput terminals will be electrically “cold” until aremote device such as a wire feeder closes the #2and #4 circuit in the MS-receptacle or terminal strip.When this switch is in the ON position the machine’soutput terminals will be electrically energized all the
time.
5. LOCAL/REMOTE CONTROL SWITCH - When thisswitch is set to the LOCAL position, control ofthe output voltage is via the output voltage controlon the CV-655’s control panel. When this switch isset to the REMOTE position, control is througha remote source such as a wire feeder via the #75,#76, and #77 leads in the MS-receptacle or terminalstrip.
6. THERMAL PROTECTION LIGHT - If themachine overheats due to lack of proper air flowthrough the machine or due to exceeding themachine’s duty cycle, thermostats will disable thewelding output and this light will illuminate. Inputpower is still applied to the machine and the coolingfan will continue to run. When the machine coolsthe welding output will resume.
7. OPTIONAL VOLTMETER & AMMETER - Digital oranalog meter kits are available as field installedoptions. Refer to the Accessories Section of thismanual.
CONTROLS AND SETTINGS

CASE BACK CONNECTIONS
220VAC AUXILIARY RECEPTACLE(European and Export Models)This receptacle provides up to 2 amps of 220VAC aux-iliary power for a water cooler.
220VAC 2 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER(European and Export Models)This breaker protects the 220VAC auxiliary circuitlocated in the 220VAC receptacle.
When using a CV-655 with wire feeders, there will be asmall spark if the electrode contacts the work orground with several seconds after releasing the trigger.
When used with some wire feeders with the electricaltrigger interlock in the ON position, the arc mightrestart if the electrode touches the work or ground dur-ing these several seconds.------------------------------------------------------------------------
AUXILIARY POWER
42 volt AC auxiliary power, as required for some wirefeeders, is available through the wire feeder recepta-cle. A 10 amp circuit breaker protects the 42 volt cir-cuit from overloads.
CV-655 machines can also supply 115 volt AC auxiliarypower through the wire feeder receptacle. A 20 ampcircuit breaker on the Domestic model, and a 15 ampon the Canadian and Export models protects the 115volt circuit from overloads. 115VAC is not available inthe MS-receptacle on the European models.
Note that some types of equipment, especially pumpsand large motors, have starting currents which are sig-nificantly higher than their running current. These high-er starting currents may cause the circuit breaker toopen. If this situation occurs, the user should refrainfrom using the CV-655 auxiliary power for that equip-ment.___________________________________________
CAUTION
THERMAL FAN CONTROL
The machine’s cooling fan remains off when the tem-perature of the rectifiers and windings inside themachine are below that requiring air flow cooling, asdetermined by electronic monitoring of several thermalsensors and the welding current of the machine. Thefan may remain off until welding begins, but once thefan is activated, it will remain on for at least 5 minutesto assure proper cooling. This feature saves energyand also minimizes the amount of dirt and other airborne particles being drawn into the machine.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
This welder has thermostatic protection from excessiveduty cycles, overloads, loss of cooling, and high ambi-ent temperatures. When the welder is subjected to anoverload or loss of cooling, a thermostat will open. Thiscondition will be indicated by the illumination of the yel-low Thermostatic Protection Light on the case front(see Figure B.1).The fan will continue to run to coolthe power source. No welding is possible until themachine is allowed to cool and the ThermostaticProtection Light goes out.
The CV-655 also has over-current protection. Whenthe load exceeds a threshold current (about 900amps), overcurrent shut down will occur after a periodof time that shortens as the current increases beyondthis threshold. If the current reaches about 1000 ampsthe output will be “clamped” at about 1000 amps andshut down will occur in about 5 seconds. When thisoverload shut down occurs the short circuit output ofthe machine drops to only about 20 amps, but the inputcontactor and input pilot light will remain on until resetby turning the power switch off, then back on with over-load removed.
FAN MOTOR FUSE (EUROPEAN MODEL)
A 10 amp slow blow fuse protects the fan motor circuit.This fuse is located inside the CV-655 mounted on thefan motor bracket.

GENERAL DESCRIPTIONThe CV-655 is a three-phase, SCR controlled con-stant voltage DC power source. It is rated at 650amps, 100% duty cycle with outstanding arc charac-teristics for multiple welding processes.
INPUT LINE, CONTACTOR, RECONNECT, FAULT PROTECTIONAND TRANSFORMERSThe desired three-phase input power is connected tothe CV-655 through an input contactor located in theinput box at the rear of the machine. Two phases ofthe input line are also connected to the control trans-former. The secondary of the control transformersupplies 115 VAC power to the control board trans-former and to the input contactor. The control boardtransformer supplies 42 VAC to the control board.
A reconnect panel allows the user to configure themachine for the desired input voltage. This three-phase AC input is applied to the primary of the maintransformer. The transformer changes the high volt-age, low current input power to a lower voltage, high-er current output. The finishes or “neutrals” of themain secondary coils are connected together, and thesix starts of the secondary windings are connected tothe rectifier assembly.
In addition, the main transformer also has eight isolat-ed secondary windings. There are three 32 VACwindings, which provide power and “timing” to the fir-ing board. The 115 VAC winding powers the fanmotor and provides the user with up to 20 amps of115 VAC auxiliary power at the receptacle or 14-pinMS type connector. The 42 VAC winding provides upto 10 amps at the 14-pin MS type connector. Threeother isolated coils are used to power the optionaldigital meter PC board. One winding is rated at 42VAC, and the other two are each rated at 10 VAC.

CONTROL BOARD, FIRING BOARD,SNUBBER/FAN, BOARD AND RECTIFICATIONThe “neutrals” of the welding secondary windings inthe main transformer are connected together, and thesix starts are connected to the six Silicon ControlledRectifier (SCR) assemblies to form a six-phase output.This six-phase AC output from the main transformersecondary is rectified and controlled through the SCRbridge.
A portion of the firing board is a three-phase circuit.Each phase provides two firing pulses, one for each ofthe two SCRs controlled by that phase. When a gatefiring enable signal is received, the firing circuit sup-plies the proper amount of energy to the gates of thepower SCRs. When this gate firing signal is applied atthe correct time, through the snubber/fan board, theSCR will turn ON. The amount of ON time versus OFFtime determines the output of the machine. See SCROperation. At this time the reactor and capacitor cir-cuit is brought into the machines output circuit. Thisenhances the constant voltage (CV) characteristics ofthe CV-655.
The control board receives current feedback informa-tion from the shunt and voltage feedback informationfrom the welding output terminals. This feedbackinformation is processed on the control board. Thecontrol board compares the commands of the outputcontrol potentiometer (or remote control device) withthe feedback information and sends the appropriateoutput control signal to the firing board.
A tapped output choke is connected to the two posi-tive output terminals. This large inductor stores ener-gy, which provides current filtering for the welding out-put of the CV-655. Two positive output terminals areprovided. One is connected to the tap lead in thechoke, thus providing a lower inductance. The otherutilizes the entire choke for higher inductance arc char-acteristics.
The snubber/fan board furnishes protection to theSCR bridge from the transient voltages. It also moni-tors the thermal sensor and activates the fan motorwhen cooling is necessary.

PROTECTIVE DEVICES ANDSHUTDOWN CIRCUITS
THERMAL PROTECTION
Two thermostats protect the CV-655 from excessiveoperating temperatures. Excessive operating temper-atures may be caused by a lack of cooling air or oper-ating the machine beyond the duty cycle and outputrating. If excessive operating temperatures shouldoccur, a thermostat will open. This condition will beindicated by the illumination of the yellowThermostatic Protection Light located on the casefront. The fan should continue to run, but the weldingoutput will be disabled until the machine cools and theThermostatic Protection Light is out.
OVER CURRENT PROTECTIONThe CV-655 also has over-current protection. Whenthe load exceeds a threshold current (about 900amps), overcurrent shutdown will occur after a periodof time that shortens as the current increases beyondthis threshold. If the current reaches about 1000 ampsthe output will be “clamped” at about 1000 amps andshut down will occur in about 5 seconds. When thisoverload shut down occurs the short circuit output ofthe machine drops to only about 20 amps, but theinput contactor and input pilot light will remain on untilreset. This is done by turning the power switch off,then back on with the overload removed.
FAN MOTOR FUSE (EUROPEAN MODEL)
A 10 amp slow blow fuse protects the fan motor cir-cuit. This fuse is located inside the CV-655 mountedon the fan motor bracket.
SCR OPERATIONA silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) is a three-terminaldevice used to control rather large currents to a load.An SCR acts very much like a switch. When a gatesignal is applied to the SCR, it is turned ON and thereis current flow from anode to cathode. In the ON statethe SCR acts like a closed switch. When the SCR isturned OFF, there is no current flow from anode tocathode. Thus the device acts like an open switch.As the name suggests, the SCR is a rectifier, so itpasses current only during positive half cycles of theAC supply. The positive half cycle is the portion of thesine wave in which the anode of the SCR is more pos-itive than the cathode.
When an AC supply voltage is applied to the SCR, thedevice spends a certain portion of the AC cycle timein the ON state and the remainder of the time in theOFF state. The amount of time spent in the ON stateis controlled by the Gate.
An SCR is fired by a short burst of current into thegate. This gate pulse must be more positive than thecathode voltage. Since there is a standard PN junc-tion between gate and cathode, the voltage betweenthese terminals must be slightly greater than 0.6V .Once the SCR has fired, it is not necessary to contin-ue the flow of gate current. As long as current contin-ues to flow from anode to cathode, the SCR willremain on. When the anode to cathode current dropsbelow a minimum value, called holding current, theSCR will shut off. This normally occurs as the AC sup-ply voltage passes through zero into the negative por-tion of the sine wave. If the SCR is turned on early inthe positive half cycle, the conduction time is longer,resulting in greater SCR output. If the gate firingoccurs later in the cycle, the conduction time is less,resulting in lower SCR output.

Sometimes machine failures appear to be due to PCboard failures. These problems can sometimes betraced to poor electrical connections. To avoid prob-lems when troubleshooting and replacing PC boards,please use the following procedure:
1. Determine to the best of your technical abilitythat the PC board is the most likely componentcausing the failure symptom.
2. Check for loose connections at the PC board toassure that the PC board is properly connected.
3. If the problem persists, replace the suspect PCboard using standard practices to avoid staticelectrical damage and electrical shock. Readthe warning inside the static resistant bag andperform the following procedures:
PC board can be damaged by static electricity.
- Remove your body’s staticcharge before opening the static-shielding bag. Wear an anti-staticwrist strap. For safety, use a 1Meg ohm resistive cord connectedto a grounded part of theequipment frame.
- If you don’t have a wrist strap,touch an un-painted, grounded,part of the equipment frame. Keeptouching the frame to preventstatic build-up. Be sure not totouch any electrically live parts atthe same time.
- Tools which come in contact with the PC board mustbe either conductive, anti-static or static-dissipative.
ELECTRIC SHOCKcan kill.
• Have an electrician install andservice this equipment. Turn theinput power OFF at the fuse boxbefore working on equipment. Donot touch electrically hot parts.
- Remove the PC board from the static-shielding bagand place it directly into the equipment. Don’t set thePC board on or near paper, plastic or cloth whichcould have a static charge. If the PC board can’t beinstalled immediately, put it back in the static-shield-ing bag.
- If the PC board uses protective shorting jumpers,don’t remove them until installation is complete.
- If you return a PC board to The Lincoln ElectricCompany for credit, it must be in the static-shieldingbag. This will prevent further damage and allow prop-er failure analysis.
4. Test the machine to determine if the failuresymptom has been corrected by thereplacement PC board.
NOTE: It is desirable to have a spare (known good)PC board available for PC board troubleshooting.
NOTE: Allow the machine to heat up so that allelectrical components can reach their operatingtemperature.
5. Remove the replacement PC board andsubstitute it with the original PC board torecreate the original problem.
a. If the original problem does not reappear bysubstituting the original board, then the PCboard was not the problem. Continue to lookfor bad connections in the control wiringharness, junction blocks, and terminal strips.
b. If the original problem is recreated by thesubstitution of the original board, then the PCboard was the problem. Reinstall thereplacement PC board and test the machine.
6. Always indicate that this procedure wasfollowed when warranty reports are to besubmitted.
NOTE: Following this procedure and writing on thewarranty report, “INSTALLED AND SWITCHED PCBOARDS TO VERIFY PROBLEM,” will help avoiddenial of legitimate PC board warranty claims.
