ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance consists of periodically blowing
out the machine, using a low-pressure air stream, to
remove accumulated dust and dirt from the intake and
outlet louvers, and the cooling channels in the
machine. Also verify the Advanced Module fan is
operational when the power source fan is activated.
CALIBRATION SPECIFICATION
Due to the nature of its operation, calibration of the
Advanced Module is not required. From a system
perspective, the output calibration of the power source
and wire feeder should be performed as directed in
their respective instruction manuals.
Generally speaking the calibration will not need
adjustment. However, neglected or improperly
calibrated machines may not yield satisfactory weld
performance. To ensure optimal performance the
calibration of output voltage and current should be
checked yearly.
When calibrating the power source voltage with an
Advanced Module attached using the Power Wave
Manager utility, the actual output voltage should be
measured directly at the “Electrode” and “Work studs
of the Advanced Module, not the output studs of the
power source. This is necessary as the power source
is configured to monitor voltage at the output studs of
the Advanced Module, not the output studs of the
power source. The Advanced Module has no effect on
the output current calibration.
