Potenza Assorbita @ I 2 Max; Tig Welding; Power Input @ I 2 Max; Absorberad Effekt @ I 2 Max - CEA PROJECT 2100 Manuel D'instructions

The current intensity to be used for the different types of wel ding,
within the field of regulation shown in table 4 is:
• High for plane, frontal plane and vertical upwards welding.
• Medium for overhead welding.
• Low for vertical downwards welding and for joining small pre-
heated pieces.
A fairly approximate indication of the average current to use in the
welding of electrodes for ordinary steel is given by the fol lowing
formula:
I = 50 x (Øe - 1)
Where:
I = intensity of the welding current
Øe = electrode diameter

TIG welding (Fig. C)
TIG welding melts the metal of the workpiece, using an arc struck
by a tungsten electrode.
The fusion bath and the electrode are protected by gas (Argon).
This type of welding is used to weld thin sheet metal or when el-
evated quality is required.
1) Connecting the welding cables:
• Connect one end of the gas hose to the gas connecter on
the TIG torch and the other end to the Argon cylinder and
open it.
• With the machine switched off:
- Connect the earth cable to the snap-on connector marked
+ (positive).
- Connect the relative earth clamp to the workpiece or to the
workpiece support in an area free of rust, paint, grease,
etc..
- Connect the TIG torch power cable to the snap-on con-
nector marked - (negative).
2) Adjust the welding current using the potentiometer (Pos. 3,
Fig. A).
3) Adjust the process switch (Pos. 6, Fig. A) to TIG (switch lever
moved to the left-hand side).
4) Start the welding machine by selecting pos. 1 on the line switch
(Pos. 7, Fig. A).
5) The white LED (Pos. 1, Fig. A) indicates that the welding ma-
chine is powered and ready to work.
6) Adjust the gas flow by manually turning the valve on the TIG
torch.
