Tip
If machines cover plate screws thread fails you could
change PT screws diameter to 5,5mm - 6mm.
Note!
Protective earth conductivity test must be performed at
earth points on both the front and back plates

Main circuit card Z001
IGBT-moduleCurrent transformer
EMC filtering
Primary rectifier
Gate transformers
- EMC filtering
- Primary rectifier and DC -link charging PTC
- H –bridge frequency 27kHz)
- Gate transformers and gate drivers
- Auxiliary voltage 15VDC
- Over voltage sensing from DC-link
- Two stage fan start
- PTC protection alerts signals comes from the main transformer and the
secondary choke)
Functions and components:
15VDC aux. voltage

Measurement points
DC Link -
DC Link +
L1,L2 and L3
DC-link voltage with Kemppi multipower):
digital multimeter
1. Feed 22 VAC to auxiliary transformers secondary
connector from Kemppi multipower connector
must be connected)
2. Measure value from DC-link test points by digital
multimeter
Value: 500 VDC or more
3. Measure secondary voltage start signal needed)
Value: 30VDC or more
Primary rectifier: Digital multimeter diode
test
1. Red test probe L1, L2, and L3 one at the
time)
Black test probe DC-link plus
Value: 0,3 - 0,5 VDC -> diodes ok
2. Red test probe DC-link plus
Black test probe L1,L2 and L3 one at the
time)
Value: No value -> diodes ok
3. Red test probe L1, L2, and L3 one at the
time)
Black test probe DC-link minus
Value: No value -> diodes ok
4. Red test probe DC-link minus
Black test probe L1,L2 and L3 one at the
time)
Value: 0,3 – 0,5 VDC -> diodes ok
If values in test 1 or 4 are close to zero rectifier is
short circuited. If value is “no value” circuit is
open
If values in test 2 or 3 are close to zero diodes are
leaking

Measurement points
Diode branch A
Diode branch B
Common point
Resistor A
Resistor B
Secondary diodes:
1. Measure diode branches one at the time
from transformer red test probe) to
common point black test probe)
Values: 0,3 – 0,5 VDC
2. Measure diode branches one at the time
from common point red test probe) to
transformer black test probe)
Value: No value
Damping circuit resistors:
Resistor value must be 5Ω
Main components
- Middle point connected full wave rectifier
- Damping circuit reduces voltage stress of diodes
- Overvoltage varistors protect diodes from ignition sparks

Wire feeder motor control card A001
Adjustments
Wire feed speed maximum:
1. Adjust wire feed speed potentiometer to
maximum
2. Feed wire 10 second by triggering the
torch
3. Measure fed wire length
4. Should be 16,7% of 18m/min 3m/min)
- If wire feed speed is offset, adjust
trimmer and repeat steps 2.-4.
Functions
- Wire motor power feeding from machine’s secondary circuit by MOSFET half bridge
- Wire feed speed maximum adjustment by trimmer
- Spool room light in different small card)
Tilt and detach
NOTE!
- When installing spare part card you have to check wire feeding speed maximum adjustment level
- Before installing tilt and detach spool room light card

Panel card P001
Functions
- Supply voltage 24VDC filtering
- Generating reference voltage 3,3VDC
- Voltage adjustment by potentiometer
- Wire feed adjustment by potentiometer
- Start signal throughput for optional usage)
- Three leds: On, Overheat protection and No gas
Gas pressure switch S002
Functions
- Prevent welding while gas pressure under adjusted level
- Adjusted to 1 bar as a default
- Not functioning in gasless wire mode
Adjustment
1. Connect gas hose to gas connector
2. Adjust pressure to 1 bar
3. Adjust pressure switch alert level to 1 bar
