Soudage sur moteurs avec
commandes électroniques
REMARQUE
Because the strength of the frame may decrease,
some manufacturers do not recommend welding onto
a chassis frame or rail. Consult the OEM of the equip-
ment or your Perkins dealer regarding welding on a
chassis frame or rail.
Correct welding procedures are necessary to avoid
damage to the engines ECM, sensors, and
associated components. When possible, remove the
component from the unit and then weld the
component. If removal of the component is not
possible, the following procedure must be followed
when you weld on a unit equipped with an Electronic
Engine. The following procedure is considered to be
the safest procedure to weld on a component. This
procedure should provide a minimum risk of damage
to electronic components.
REMARQUE
Pour la mise à la masse du poste de soudage, ne
pas utiliser des composants électriques comme
l'ECM ou les capteurs. Une mise à la masse inad-
équate peut endommager les coussinets de la trans-
mission, les composants hydrauliques, électriques et
autres.
Attacher le câble de masse du poste de soudage sur
le composant à souder. Prévoir la mise à la masse
aussi près que possible de la zone de soudage. Cela
diminuera les risques de dégâts.
Nota: Perform the welding in areas that are free from
explosive hazards.
1. Stop the engine. Turn the switched power to the
OFF position.
2. Ensure that the fuel supply to the engine is turned
off.
3. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the
battery. If a battery disconnect switch is provided,
open the switch.
4. Disconnect all electronic components from the
wiring harnesses. Include the following
components:
• Electronic components for the driven
equipment
• ECM
• Sensors
• Electric operated fuel pump
i08031607
• Electronically controlled valves
• Relays
• Aftertreatment ID module
Do not use electrical components (ECM or ECM sen-
sors) or electronic component grounding points for
grounding the welder.
Illustration 34
Use the example above. The current flow from the
welder to the ground clamp of the welder will not
damage any associated components.
(1) Engine
(2) Welding electrode
(3) Keyswitch in the OFF position
(4) Battery disconnect switch in the open position
(5) Disconnected battery cables
(6) Battery
(7) Electrical/Electronic component
(8) The component that is being welded
(9) Current path of the welder
(10) Ground clamp for the welder
5. Connect the welding ground cable directly to the
part that will be welded. Place the ground cable as
close as possible to the weld to reduce the
possibility of welding current damage to the
following components. Bearings, hydraulic
components, electrical components, and ground
straps.
