test run of the circulation of the liquid TEST

Filling in the liquid and checking the liquid level is done by pulling open the hatch in the lower

part of the machine so that you can see the filling hole for the liquid. The cooling units tank

is filled with 20 – 40 % glycol / water mixture according to antifreeze requirements. Instead of

glycol / water mixture you can also use another liquid according to your experience.
The circulation of the liquid is operation-controlled, which means that the liquid is circulating

only during welding and for a while after the welding.

5. internal protections of the Machine

5.1. overheating protection

The yellow signal light of the overheating protection comes on and the machine stops

when the machine has overheated. The machine may overheat if the machine is loaded

for a long time with a current higher than 100 % of the duty cycle or when the

circulation of the cooling air is prevented.

5.2. over-voltage protection of the Mains supply voltage

If the over-voltages in the mains supply are so high that they can endanger the

machine, the supply of the machine is immediately turned off. If the over-voltages

are short in duration, this may be seen as short breaks in the current. The signal

light of the panel showing an over / under-voltage comes on during a long period

of over-voltage.

5.3. the Wrong voltage selection

Mastertig ACDC 2500, Mastertig ACDC 2500W

If a multi-voltage machine is connected to the wrong voltage, the machine will not

start and the signal light in the front panel comes on to indicate this. The machine will

not be damaged if it is connected to the wrong voltage for a short time. Unplug the

machine from the mains supply and select the correct voltage from the switch under

the front panel.

5.4. protection of a Water-cooleD torch

Mastertig ACDC 2500W and -3500W

If the switch of the cooling unit is in the position for an gas-cooled torch and you start welding

with a water-cooled torch and a current is over 60 A, the welding is broken.
