Grid Connection Devices with a high output can inﬂuence the energy quality of the grid due to

their current consumption.

This may affect a number of device types in terms of:

-connection restrictions

-criteria regarding maximum permissible grid impedance *)

-criteria regarding the minimum required short-circuit power *)

*) both at the interface with the public grid

See technical data

In this case, the operator or the person using the device should check whether or

not the device is allowed to be connected, where appropriate through discussion

with the power supply company.

IMPORTANT! Ensure secure grounding of the grid connection!

Residual current

circuit breaker

Local regulations and national guidelines may mean that a residual current cir-

cuit breaker is required when connecting a device to the public grid.

The residual current circuit breaker recommended for the device by the manu-

facturer can be found in the technical data.

Personal Protec-

tion and Protec-

tion of Others

You are exposed to numerous hazards while handling the device, for example:

-Flying sparks and pieces of hot metal

-Arc radiation that poses a risk of injury to the eyes and skin

-Hazardous electromagnetic fields that pose a risk of death for individuals

with pacemakers

-Electrical risks from grid current and welding current

-Increased noise exposure

-Harmful welding fumes and gases

Wear suitable protective clothing when dealing with the device. The protective

clothing must have the following properties:

-Flame resistant

-Insulating and dry

-Covering the entire body and in good condition with no damage

-Safety helmet

-Cufﬂess pants

Protective clothing involves the following:

-Protecting the face and eyes from UV radiation, heat and ﬂying sparks with a

face guard featuring a regulation-compliant filter

-Wearing regulation-compliant protective goggles with side protection behind

the face guard

-Wearing rigid, wet-insulating footwear

-Protecting hands with appropriate gloves (featuring electrical insulation and

thermal protection)

-Wearing ear protection to reduce noise exposure and protect against injury

Keep persons, especially children, away during the operation of the devices and

during the welding process. If persons are in the vicinity, however:

-Instruct them about all hazards (blinding hazard due to arcs, risk of injury

from ﬂying sparks, welding fumes hazardous to health, noise exposure, pos-

sible hazard due to grid current or welding current, etc.)

-Provide suitable protective equipment or

-Construct suitable protective walls and curtains.

EN-US

Data on noise

emission values

The device produces a maximum noise level of <80 dB(A) (ref. 1pW) when idling

and in the cooling phase following operation in relation to the maximum permit-

ted operating point at standard loading in accordance with EN 60974-1.

A workplace-specific emission value for welding (and cutting) cannot be spe-

cified because this value depends on the welding process and the environmental

conditions. It is inﬂuenced by a wide range of parameters, such as the welding

process itself (MIG/MAG, TIG welding), the selected current type (direct cur-

rent, alternating current), the power range, the type of weld metal, the resonance

properties of the workpiece, the workplace environment, and many other factors.

Danger from tox-

ic gases and va-

pors

The fumes produced during welding contain toxic gases and vapors.

Welding fumes contain substances that cause cancer, as stated in monograph

118 from the International Agency for Research on Cancer.

Use at-source extraction source and a room extraction system.

If possible, use a welding torch with an integrated extraction device.

Keep your head out of the welding fumes and gases.

Take the following precautionary measures for fumes and harmful gases:

-Do not breathe them in.

-Extract them from the work area using appropriate equipment.

Ensure that there is a sufficient supply of fresh air. Ensure that there is a ventila-

tion ﬂow rate of at least 20 m³ per hour.

Use a welding helmet with air supply if there is insufficient ventilation.

If there is uncertainty as to whether the extraction capacity is sufficient, com-

pare the measured toxic emission values against the permissible limit values.

The following components are factors that determine how toxic the welding

fumes are:

-The metals used for the workpiece

-Electrodes

-Coatings

-Cleaning agents, degreasers, and the like

-The welding process used

Consult the corresponding material safety data sheets and manufacturer's in-

structions for the components listed above.

Recommendations for exposure scenarios, risk management measures and

identifying working conditions can be found on the European Welding Associ-

ation website under Health & Safety (https://european-welding.org).

Keep ﬂammable vapors (such as solvent vapors) out of the arc radiation range.

When no welding is taking place, close the valve of the shielding gas cylinder or

the main gas supply.

Danger from Fly-

ing Sparks

Flying sparks can cause fires and explosions.

Never undertake welding near ﬂammable materials.

Flammable materials must be kept at least 11 meters (36 ft. 1.07 in.) from the

arc or protected with a certified cover.

Keep suitable, tested fire extinguishers on hand.

Sparks and pieces of hot metal may also get into surrounding areas through

small cracks and openings. Take appropriate measures to ensure that there is no

risk of injury or fire.

Do not undertake welding in areas at risk of fire and explosion, or on sealed

tanks, drums, or pipes if these have not been prepared in accordance with cor-

responding national and international standards.

Do not undertake welding on containers in which gases, fuels, mineral oils, and

the like are/were stored. Residues pose a risk of explosion.

Risks from grid

current and

welding current

An electric shock can be fatal.

Do not touch voltage-carrying parts inside or outside the device.

During MIG/MAG welding and TIG welding, the welding wire, the wirespool, the

feed rollers, as well as all pieces of metal that are in contact with the welding

wire, are live.

Always place the wirefeeder on a sufficiently insulated base or use a suitable in-

sulating wirefeeder holder.

Ensure suitable personal protection with dry temporary backing or cover with

sufficient insulation against the ground potential. The temporary backing or cov-

er must completely cover the entire area between the body and the ground po-

tential.

All cables and leads must be secured, undamaged, insulated, and adequately di-

mensioned. Replace loose connections and scorched, damaged, or inadequately

dimensioned cables and leads immediately.

Before every use, check power connections for secure fit by hand.

In the case of power cables with bayonet connectors, turn the power cable by at

least 180° around the longitudinal axis and pretension.

Do not wrap cables or leads around your body or parts of the body.

Concerning the electrode (rod electrode, tungsten electrode, welding wire, etc.)

-Never immerse it in liquids to cool it

-Never touch it when the power source is switched on.

The open circuit voltage of a welding system may double, for example, between

the electrodes of two welding systems. Touching the potentials of both elec-

trodes at the same time may be life-threatening in some cases.

Have the grid and device supply lead regularly inspected by an electrician to en-

sure that the ground conductor is functioning properly.

Protection class I devices require a grid with a ground conductor and a connector

system with ground conductor contact for proper operation.

Operation of the device on a grid without a ground conductor and on a socket

without a ground conductor contact is only permitted if all national regulations

for protective separation are observed.

Otherwise, this is considered gross negligence. The manufacturer accepts no li-

ability for any damage resulting from improper use.

Use suitable equipment to ensure that the workpiece is sufficiently grounded if

necessary.

Switch off unused devices.

EN-US

When working at elevated heights, wear a safety harness to prevent falls.

Before working on the device, switch off the device and remove the grid plug.

Secure the device to prevent the grid plug from being connected and switched

on again by applying a clearly legible and understandable warning sign.

After opening the device:

-Discharge all electrically charged components

-Ensure that all components are disconnected from the power supply.

If work is needed on voltage-carrying parts, bring in a second person who will

switch off the main switch at the correct time.

Stray welding

currents

If the following instructions are not observed, stray welding currents may occur,

which pose a risk of the following:

-Fire

-Overheating of parts connected to the workpiece

-Irreparable damage to ground conductors

-Damage to the device and other electrical equipment

Ensure that the workpiece clamp is securely connected to the workpiece.

Secure the workpiece clamp as close to the spot to be welded as possible.

Position the device with sufficient insulation against electrically conductive envir-

onments, e.g., insulation against electrically conductive ﬂoors or electrically con-

ductive mounts.

Observe the following when using power distribution boards, twin-head mounts,

etc.: Even the electrode of the welding torch/electrode holder not in use carries

electric potential. Ensure that there is sufficient insulation when the unused

welding torch/electrode holder is stored.

In automated MIG/MAG applications, only guide the wire electrode from the

welding wire drum, large spool, or wirespool to the wirefeeder with insulation.

EMC Device

Classifications

Devices in emission class A:

-Are only designed for use in industrial settings

-Can cause line-bound and radiated interference in other areas

Devices in emission class B:

-Satisfy the emissions criteria for residential and industrial areas. This is also

true for residential areas in which the energy is supplied from the public low-

voltage grid.

EMC device classification as per the rating plate or technical data.

EMC measures In certain cases, even though a device complies with the standard limit values for

emissions, it may affect the application area for which it was designed (e.g., when

there is sensitive equipment at the same location, or if the site where the device

is installed is close to either radio or television receivers).

If this is the case, then the operating company is obliged to take appropriate ac-

tion to rectify the situation.
