Operating manual
INSTALLATION - USING THE PRODUCT
Only experienced persons, authorised by the manufacturer, may carry out the installation. During installation, ensure that the power source is
disconnected from the mains. Series or parallel power source connections are not allowed. It is recommended to use the welding cables supplied with
the unit in order to obtain the best performance.
DESCRIPTION
The CARPULSE is a «synergic» semi-automatic welding machine, ventilated for welding (MIG or MAG). This machine is recommended for welding
steel, stainless steel, aluminium and the brazing. Its adjustment is quick and easy with its «synergic» mode.

HUMAN-MACHINE INTERFACE (HMI)
Please read the Human Machine Interface (HMI) which forms part of the equipment's user literature.
HMI
POWER SWITCH
• The 230V model is fitted with a 16A socket type CEE7/7 which must be connected to a single-phase 230V (50 - 60 Hz) power supply fitted with three
wires and one earthed neutral.
- The 208/240V model is supplied without a plug and should only be connected on a single-phase 208-240V (50-60 Hz) three-wire (50-60 Hz) electrical
system with a earthed neutral.
The absorbed effective current (I1eff) is displayed on the machine, for optimal use. Check that the power supply and its protection (fuse and/or cir-
cuit breaker) are compatible with the current needed by the machine. In some countries, it may be necessary to change the plug to allow the use at
maximum settings.
• The machine is designed to work on a 230V -20% +15% power supply. It switches to protection mode if the power supply voltage is below 185V RMS
or over 265V RMS. (a default code will appear on the screen display).
• Power up the machine by switching the on / off switch (2 - FIG 1) to the I position, and stop it by switching it to the 0 position.
Warning! Never disconnect the power supply while the machine is charging.
CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE
The machine can work with generators as long as the auxiliary power matches these requirements:
- The voltage must be AC, always superior to 230 V -20% +15%, and the peak voltage below 400V,
- The frequency must be between 50 and 60 Hz.
It is imperative to check these requirements as several generators generate high voltage peaks that can damage these machines.
USING EXTENSION LEADS
All extension leads must be of a suitable length and width that is appropriate to the equipment's voltage. Use an extension lead that complies with
national safety regulations.
