2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS
1. Once the packing has been opened, make sure that the machine is not
damaged. If in any doubt, call the service centre.
2. This equipment must only be used by qualified personnel.
3. During installation, any electric work must only be carried out by trained
personnel.
. The machine must be used in a dry place with good ventilation.
5. Make sure that no metal dust can be drawn in by the fan inside the
machine, as this could cause damage to the electronic circuits.
6. It is prohibited to connect more than one INVERTER generator in series
or in parallel.
7. When installing the machine, follow the local regulations on safety.
8. The position of the machine must allow easy access by the operator to
the controls and connectors.
9. When the welding machine is operating, all its covers and doors must be
closed and well fixed.
10. Do not expose the welding machine to direct sunlight or to heavy
rain. This equipment conforms to protection rating IP23S.
11. During welding, the welding cables must be located near or at
ground level. They should be as short as possible.
12. The operator must wear gloves, clothes, shoes, and a helmet or a
welder’s helmet, which protect and are fire-resistant in order to protect
him against electric shock, flashes and sparks from welding.
13. The operator must protect his eyes with safety visor or mask
designed for welding, fitted with standard safety filters. He should also be
aware that during electrical welding ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION is
emitted. Therefore it is vital that his face is also protected from radiation.
Ultraviolet rays produce the same harmful effect as sun burning on
unprotected skin.
1 . The operator is obliged to warn anyone near the welding area of
the risks that welding involves and to arrange to provide adequate
protection equipment.
15. It is very important to arrange for sufficient ventilation, especially
when welding in enclosed spaces. We suggest using suitable fume
extractors to prevent the risk of intoxication by fumes or gas generated
by the welding process.
16. The operator must ensure all flammable materials are removed
from the work area to avoid any risk of fire.
17. The operator must NEVER weld containers that have previously
contained petrol, lubricants, gas or similar flammable materials, even if
the container has been empty for a considerable time. THERE IS A
VERY HIGH RISK OF EXPLOSION.
18. The operator must be aware of all the special regulations which he
needs to conform to when welding in enclosed spaces with a high risk of

5/19

explosion.
19. To prevent electric shock, we strongly suggest the following rules:
20. Do not work in a damp or humid environment.
21. Do not use the welding machine if its cables are damaged in any
way.
22. Make sure that the earthing system of the electric equipment is
correctly connected and operational.
23. The operator must be insulated from the metal components
connected to the return wire.
2 . The earthing of the piece being worked could increase the risk of
injury to the operator.
EN 6097 -1 Standard: Open-circuit voltage. During the operation of the
machine, the highest voltage, with which it is possible to come into contact, is
the open-circuit voltage between the welding clamps.
The maximum open-circuit voltage of the welding machines is established by
national and international standards (EN 6097 -1) depending on the type of
weld current to be used, on its waveform and on the hazards arising from the
work place. These values are not applicable to the strike currents and those for
stabilisation of the arc that could be above it.
The open-circuit voltage, for as many adjustments as possible, must never
exceed the values relating to the various cases shown in the following table:
Case
Working conditions Open-circuit voltage
1 Places with increased risk of
electric shock
DC current: 113V
peak value
AC current: 68V
peak value and
8V effective
2 Places without increased risk
of electric shock
DC current: 113V
peak value
AC current: 113V
peak value and
80V effective
3 Torches held mechanically
with increased protection for
the operator
DC current: 1 1V
peak value
AC current: 1 1V
peak value and
100V effective
In case 1, the dc welding machines with rectifier must be built in such a way
that, in case of a fault developing in the rectifier (for example open circuit, short
circuit or lack of power), the permitted values cannot be exceeded.
25. Before opening the machine switch off the machine and disconnect
it from the power socket.
26. Only personnel authorised by this company can carry out
maintenance on the machine.
NOTE
Device complies with IEC 61000-3-12 with following conditions:
Short-circuit power Ssc of network in place at an interface between the user's
supply and the public network (PCC) must be least 99 kW.
User is obliged to consult with the electricity supplier if the impedance of the
network at this point is that required short-circuit capacity Zmax = 36 mΩ and

6/19

whether the device can be connected with a public low-voltage network.
On the nameplate are the following symbols: .
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
The welding device is in terms of interference designed primarily for industrial
areas. It meets the requirements of EN 6097 -10 class A and it isn’t designed
for using in residential areas, where the electrical energy is supplied by public
low-voltage power supply network. It can be here potential problems with
ensuring of electromagnetic compatibility in this areas, due to interference
caused by power lines as well as the radiated interference.
During operation, the device may be the source of interference.
Caution
We warn users, that they are responsible for possible interference from
welding.

The machine is equipped with a 16 A plug for connection to a single phase
supply 1 x 230 V, the corresponding data for this 16 A plug (Duty Cycle = DC)
are in the table above without brackets.
In order to fully use the technical capabilities of the machine, the machine must
be connected to the industrial single phase networks with a blue plug 32 A with
the maximum permissible fuse of 25 A. The corresponding data for such a 32
A plug are stated in the table above in brackets.

Another option is to connect the machine to the three-phase mains 3x 00 /
230V TN-S (CS). The condition is to use a 5 pin 32 A plugs for the supply
cable and connection to the phase voltage. Black (brown) wire connected to
one phase (e.g. L1), the blue wire to the neutral wire (N) and green-yellow wire
to the grounded conductor "PE". In this case, it is possible to connect the
machine to a three-phase socket, which may be protected by fuse max. 25 A.
Attention! Do not connect to the interconnected voltage (delta voltage)
(between 2 phases)!
Replacement of the plug may only be performed by ALFA IN authorized
service personnel.
