- Protection against acess to dangerous parts from solid bodies of a ≥12.5mm diameter and,
- Protection against the rain inclined at 60% towards the vertical.
These devices can be used outside in accordance with the IP23 protection index.
• Do not use the machine when the temperature is > 40°C.
• The power cables, extensions and welding cables must be fully uncoiled to prevent overheating.
The manufacturer does not incur any responsability regarding damages to both objects and persons that result from an incorrect
and/or dangerous use of the machine.
MAINTENANCE / RECOMMENDATIONS
• Maintenance should only be carried out by a qualified person. Annual maintenance is recommended.
• Ensure the machine is unplugged from the mains, and wait for two minutes before carrying out maintenance work. DANGER
High Voltage and Currents inside the machine.
• Remove the casing 2 or 3 times a year to remove any excess dust. Take this opportunity to have the electrical connections
checked by a qualified person, with an insulated tool.
• Regularly check the condition of the power supply cable. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its after sales service or an equally qualified person.
• Ensure the ventilation holes of the device are not blocked to allow adequate air circulation.
• Do not use this equipment to thaw pipes, to charge batteries, or to start any engine.
INSTALLATION – FONCTIONNEMENT PRODUIT
Only qualified personnel authorized by the manufacturer should perform the installation of the welding equipment. During set up, the operator must
ensure that the machine is unplugged. Connecting generators in a series or a parallel circuit is forbidden.
EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION (FIG-1)
The IMS 220 FV CEL is a portable, ventilated Inverter welding station designed for welding the coated electrode (MMA) and the refractory electrode
(TIG Lift) in direct current (DC).
The MMA process allows to weld all types of electrodes : rutile, basic, cast-iron and cellulosic.
The TIG process requires gas protection (Argon) and welds most metals except aluminum and its alloys.
It is protected for operation on generators (Power supply, 230V +-15%).
These products can be fitted with a remote control (ref. 045675) or a foot pedal (ref. 045682).

POWER SUPPLY – START UP
• This equipment is supplied with a 16 A CEE7 / 7 plug and must be connected to a three-wire 230V (50-60 Hz) single-phase electrical installation
with the earthed neutral. The 200E FV CEL integrates a « Flexible Voltage » system. It has to be plugged on a power supply variable between 110V
and 240V (50 – 60 Hz) WITH earth. The absorbed effective current (I1eff) is shown on the machine, for maximal using conditions. Check that the
power supply and its protection (fuse and/or circuit-breaker) is compatible with the necessary current during use. For intensive use at 230Vrms and
110Vrms, disconnect the original plug and replace it with a 32A plug protected by a 32A circuit breaker. The welder must be installed so that the main
plug is accessible.
• The power is switched on by rotating the On/Off switch to position I, conversely the power is switched off by rotating it to position O. Warning!
Never disconnect the power supply while the machine is charging.
The device turns into protection mode if the supply voltage is over 265V for the single-phase products (the sсreen displays
Normal operation will resume when the voltage has returned to its nominal range.
CONNECTION ON A GENERATOR
The machine can work with generators as long as the auxiliary power matches these requirements :
- The voltage must be AC, always set as specified, and the peak voltage below 400V,
- The frequency must be between 50 and 60 Hz.
18
It is imperative to check these requirements as several generators generate high voltage peaks that can damage these machines.
