SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read the entire installation section before starting
installation.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
Only qualified personnel
should perform this
installation.
Turn the input power OFF at
the main switch or fuse box
before working on this equipment. Turn off the
input power to any other equipment connected to
the welding system at the main switch or fuse
box before working on the equipment.
Do not touch electrically “Hot” parts.
Always connect the POWERPLUSTM grounding
lug (located at the rear of the case) to a proper
safety (Earth) ground. POWERPLUSTM is for use
on a 3 phase 4 wire system with earthed neutral.
SELECT SUITABLE LOCATION
This power source should not be subjected to rain, nor
should any parts of it be submerged in water. Doing so
may cause improper operation as well as pose a safety
hazard. The best practice is to keep the machine in a
dry, sheltered area.
The bottom of machine must always be placed on a
firm, secure, level surface. There is a danger of the
machine toppling over if this precaution is not
taken.
Place the welder where clean cool air can freely
circulate in through the side and back louvers and out
through the case bottom. Water dust or any foreign
material that can be drawn into the welder should be
kept a minimum. Failure to observe these precautions
can result in excessive operating temperatures and
nuisance shutdowns.
Locate the POWERPLUSTM machine away from radio
controlled machinery. Normal operation of the welder
may adversely affect the operation of RF controlled
equipment, which may result in bodily injury or damage
to the equipment.
The machine must be located where there is least
500mm distance with barrier.
Small metal can be drawn into the machine, you
should avoidance.
INPUT POWER AND GROUNDING
CONNECTION
Only a qualified electrician should connect the
input leads to the POWERPLUSTM. Connections
should be made in accordance with the connection
diagram. Failure to do so may result in bodily injury
or death.
Open the input box on the rear of the case. Use a
three-phase supply line, the three live wires should go
through the three holes of the input wire holder and be
securely clamped and fixed. Connect L1, L2, L3 and
ground according to the Input Supply Connection
Diagram decal, refer to Figure A.1 on this page.
FIGURE A.1 –Input Supply Connection Diagram
The POWERPLUSTM is supplied cto onnect with 50Hz
or 60Hz input.
The customer need to suppliy ≥100KVA power supply
and the power supply voltage changes of ≤10%.
The input power supply cable should be connected with
some protect equipment like fuse、breaker and air-
break switch(size 125A, 3 phase).
You should use ≥25mm2 input power supply cable
when your equipment is at fully loaded output.
When your workshop is wet or you work on the steel
plate or shelf you should install a leakage protector.
After connecting the input cable to the machine,
check the input voltage setting by opening the front
control pannel. If the input voltage is above 415V,
connect the “COM”lead to the 415V position and set
DIP SWITCH 8 to the “ON”position on the control
board.
If the input voltage is at the rang from 342V to 415V,
connect the “COM”lead to the 380V position and set
DIP SWITCH 8 to the “OFF”position on the control
board.
