INITIAL OPERATION
Mains connection
After connection of the mains cable the machine is ready for use. Please note that all cable
connections must be made by authorized and qualified staff.
Type
DELTA 180E PFC
The machine will function optimally and satisfactorily if voltage is kept above permissible minimum
voltage.
Warning! There is an imminent danger of damaging the extension cable if it is coiled during use of
the machine, since the cable will not be cooled sufficiently. The extention cable must not, at the
same time, be used for the supply of any other equipment.
Connection of welding cables
Connect the welding cables to the front of the machine. Please note that the plug must be turned
through 45 degrees after insertion into the socket. If the plug is not installed correctly, it will be
damaged due to excessive contact resistance, and as a consequence the machine will be
damaged too. Any extension of welding cables will reduce the maximum performance of the
machine. This is caused by the fact that the electrical resistance of the cable will cause a decline in
voltage, which is directly dependent on the length of the cable.
Configuration
MIGATRONIC disclaims all responsibility for damaged cables and hoses and other damage related
to welding with an undersized welding torch and welding cables measured by welding
specifications e.g. in relation to permissible load.
Generator use
This welding machine can be used at all mains supplies providing sine-shaped current and voltage
and not exceeding the approved voltage tolerances stated in the technical data. Motorised
generators observing the above can be used as mains supply. Consult your supplier of generator
prior to connecting your welding machine. MIGATRONIC recommends use of a generator with
electronic regulator and supply of minimum 1.5 x the maximum kVA consumption of the welding
machine. The guarantee does not cover damage caused by incorrect or poor mains supply.
Usage of the machine
When welding with a DELTA 180E PFC machine, some heating of various components of the
machine takes place and during breaks in welding these components will cool down again.
It is not possible to overload the machine in normal use, and the machine can work continuously at
current settings up to 100A during MMA electrode welding. If the machine is set for currents higher
than 100A, there will be a need for periods during which the machine can cool down. Higher current
and higher ambient temperature will result in longer cooling periods.
