User manual
FIRE AND EXPLOSION RISK
Fully shield the welding area; flammable materials should be kept at least 11 metres away.
Fire fighting equipment must be nearby during welding operations.
Beware of hot material or sparks being projected, even through cracks; they can cause a fire or explosion.
Keep people, flammable objects and pressurised containers at a safe distance.
Welding in closed containers or tubes should be avoided and if they are open they should be emptied of any flammable or explosive material (oils,
fuels and gas residues, etc.).
Grinding operations must not be directed towards the welding power source or towards any flammable materials.
GAS CYLINDERS
The gas coming out of the gas cylinders can cause suffocation if it becomes concentrated in the welding area (ventilate well).
Transportation must be done carefully and safely: gas cylinders must be shut off and the welding power source must be switched
off. They must be stored vertically and supported to limit the risk of falling.
Close the gas cylinder between uses. Beware of temperature variations and sun exposure.
The gas cylinder must not come into contact with flames, electric arcs, torches, earth clamps or any other heat or incandescent sources.
Be sure to keep it away from electrical and welding circuits and, therefore, never weld a pressurised cylinder.
Be careful when opening the gas cylinder's valve, keep your head away from the valve and make sure that the gas used is suitable for the welding
process.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The electrical power supply must be earthed. Use the fuse size recommended on the information panel.
Electric shocks can cause serious direct or indirect accidents and even death.
Never touch live parts inside or outside the live power source (torches, clamps, cables and electrodes) as these parts are directly connected to the
welding circuit.
Before opening the welding current source, it must be disconnected from the mains and wait 2 minutes. so that all the capacitors are discharged.
Do not touch the torch or electrode holder and the earth clamp at the same time.
Make sure to have the cables and torches replaced by a qualified and authorised technician if they become damaged. Select the cable's cross-section
size according to the intended application. Always wear dry, undamaged clothing to insulate yourself from the welding circuit. Wear insulated footwear
in all work environments.
THE EQUIPMENT'S EMC CLASSIFICATION
This Class A equipment is not suitable for use in a residential setting where power is supplied from the public, low voltage,
supply network. There may be difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility at these sites, this is due to both conducted
and radiated radio frequency interference.
TITANIUM 230 AC/DC FV:
Provided that the public, low-voltage, supply-network impedance at the point of common coupling is less than Zmax = 0.173
Ohms, this equipment complies with standard IEC 61000-3-11 and can be connected to public, low-voltage supply networks.
The installer or user of the equipment is responsible for ensuring that the network impedance complies with the impedance
restrictions, this may involve consulting with the distribution network operator if necessary.
TITANIUM 321AC/DC - 400 AC/DC:
This material complies with IEC 61000-3-11.
TITANIUM 230 AC/DC FV:
This material complies with IEC 61000-3-12.
TITANIUM 321AC/DC - 400 AC/DC:
This equipment does not comply with IEC 61000-3-12 and is intended to be connected to private, low-voltage networks that are
connected to the public supply network only at medium- and high-voltage levels. If connected to a public, low voltage supply
network, it is the installer's or user's responsibility to ensure that the equipment can be connected to the power supply by
consulting with the distribution network operator.
ELECTRO-MAGNETIC EMISSIONS
An electric current passing through any conductor produces localised electric and magnetic fields (EMF). The welding current
produces an electromagnetic field around the welding circuit and the welding equipment.
