READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING AND SEE WMA PUBLICATION 237 ‘The arc welder at work’ AVAILABLE FROM THE MANUFACTURER. PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS Bt el ch MUREX¢D 4 SAFETY In any arc welding or gouging operation, it is the responsibility of the user to observe certain safety rules to ensure his personal safety and to protect those working near him. Read all safety articles relevant to arc welding published by the WMA. Pay particular attention to any CAUTION or WARNING Notes included in this manual. CAUTION indicates possible equipment damage. WARNING indicates possible hazard to life. IN WARNING N / The ON/OFF sul, on this equipment does not es the unit from the mains electrical supply. AC POWER | IS PRESENT ON THE ON/OFF SWITCH TERMINALS. The On/Off lamp is an indication that the supply is switched on and does not imply that the unit is isolated from the supply. BEFORE REMOVING THE COVERS FOR MAINTENANCE, ISOLATE THE UNIT FROM THE MAINS ELEC TRICAL SUPPLY. | 1. Electrical /\ Treat electricity with respect. Even the open circuit voltage of this equipment can be dangerous. Adjustments to the torch or replacement of torch parts should be undertaken with the mains supply isolated from the unit. If damaged torch cables or torch components are found, the unit must be disconnected from the mains and defective parts must be replaced using only Murex spare parts. /N Do not work on live circuits or cables. Disconnect the main power supply. before checking the machine or performing any maintenance operation. /\ Be sure the case of the welding machine is properly connected to a good electrical earth. /N Have the wiring for the welding machine installed by a qualified electrician. All connections must be made according to specifications in force and to general safety standards. /\ Do not stand in water or on damp floors while using an arc welder or cutter. Do not use in the rain. /\ Do not operate with worn or poorly connected cables. Inspect all cables frequently for insulation failure, exposed wires and loose connections. | A Do not overioad cables or continue to operate with overheating cables. Cables which are too small for the current carried will overheat, causing rapid deterioration of the insulation. /\ Pay attention that live parts of the torch do not touch any metal which is connected to the earth cable. Fix an insulated hook to hang the torch on when it is not in use. 1. Ventilation Do not weld or cut on containers which have held combustible or flammable materials, or materials which give off flammable or toxic vapours when heated, without proper cleaning. /\ Locate the welding/cutting operation far enough from any vapour-type degreaser using trichlorethylene or other chlorinated hydrocarbons as solvents. The ultraviolet light from the arc can decompose these vapours into toxic gases at a considerable distance from the arc, even though the concentration of the gases is low enough to be undetectable by smell. /\ Be sure to provide adequate ventilation for removal and dilution of fume and gases. Fume exhaust facilities near the arc, or a ventilated helmet should be used when cutting in confined spaces or on toxic material. 2. Glare /N Never look at the arc without wearing eye protection. Always use the proper protective clothing, filter glasses, and gloves. Be careful to avoid exposed skin areas. Do not use cracked or defective helmets or shields. /N Never strike an arc when there is someone near who is not protected from the strong light of the arc. /A Wam bystanders who are not aware of the dangers of ultra- violet light. 3. General AN Take care when lifting the unit. | /\ Ensure that cylinders are secured by chains. /\ Locate the unit so that there is adequate air flow to the ventilation louvres. A Always dress correctly to protect against glare, radiation and spatter. 4. Fire /N Ensure that the correct type of fire extinguisher is available in the welding area. /N Do not weld near flammable materials or liquids, in or near explosive atmospheres, or on pipes carrying explosive gases. 5. Vehicle Electrics /\ When working on motor vehicles, remove the battery and any circuitry which may be damaged by the arc. /\ Whilst welding be aware of the possibility of ‘hidden wires’ behind panels or bulkheads. GENERAL The Transmig 305S and Transmig 4058 (TM 3058 a TM 4055) are constant voltage characteristic welding power supply units designed for use in MIG/MAG dip transfer and spray transfer modes. Inductance output sockets (XS2 A, B a C) are provided for these techniques (see below). In addition to the welding output, these units provide 42 volts and contactor control circuit outputs to a wire feed unit (socket on rear panel). Both units can be used in conjunction with the Transmatic 2 x 2, 4 x 4 and 4 x 4HD Feed Units. Details of interconnections to these feeders are given at the front of the Parts List under ‘Optional Extras’. A 42 volts a.c. outlet is supplied on a terminal block inside the unit to supply a CO. Heater if required (see installation, page 6). A water cooler may be fitted to the unit by mounting it on the cylinder carrier plate on the back panel. CONTROLS Ammeter MUREX Under welding conditions indicates welding current Voltmeter Indicates actual welding voltage. Press-to-read OCV switch -VE Welding power Minimum Inductance For short arc welding of thin materials root runs, aluminium and cored wires. -VE Welding power Medium Inductance - Used for short arc welding, gives slightly increased heat input. 220 volts a.c. is provided on a terminal block inside the unit to power the cooler (see installation, page 6). A thermostatically controlled cooling fan is mounted inside the rear panel. This fan normally runs at reduced power but if the temperature rises, the fan speed increases. Once the power source has cooled down, the fan returns to a low speed. The fan draws air in via the louvres in the front and side panels, and expels through the rear, cooling the rectifiers and other components. To operate efficiently these louvres must be kept free from obstruction. Reduced air flow may cause a thermal overload (over-heating). A thermostat protects he unit from thermal overload. This thermostat is mounted on the rectifier assembly (see Parts List) and disables the control circuit in the event of overheating. Should the overload lamp light (see below) cease welding, keep the mains switched on leaving the fan running to minimise the Overload Lamp 5 cooling time, and leave the unit to cool. Investigate the cause of overheating (ventilation, fan failure etc.). Circuit breakers on the rear panel, protect the circuits from excess current overload. They are reset by pushing in the buttons. WARNING Persistent operation of the ecu: breakers must be investigated. Under no conditions should (hey be held on artic oe device etc.) A Voltmeter and Ammeter mounted on the front panel indicate actual welding voltage and welding current values. The ‘Press to read’ button activates the welding output voltage allowing the O.C.V. (Open Circuit voltage) to be checked. The Voltage Selection switches provide coarse and fine control of output voltage. ON/OFF Lamp Indicates welding power is switched on.

Correct installation is important for the reliable and safe ing. of the equipment. Before continuing carry out the following checks: 1. Having unpacked the power source, inspect for evidence of damage or missing parts. Notify the carrier or Murex immediately. 2. Check the air louvres in the front and rear panels for any packing materials that might obstruct the air flow. 3. Position the equipment in a safe area. Leave at lest 0.5m clearance around the unit to allow air to circulate freely. The position should be free from dust, fumes and heat. See SAFETY at the front of this manual. Connection to Mains Supply WARNING i Before “making electrical input l £ connections: to the unit, use ‘machinery : lockout procedures’.

A CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION Welding Supply The mains input is applied to Terminal Block TBXT2 and is connected to the primary of transformer TM1 when contactor KM1 closes. It can be seen that, with the 230 volt links only in position as shown (see also pages 6 and 8). TM1 primary is connected as a delta winding for a fixed, 3 phase voltage of 230 volts. With the 400-415/500V links in position (230V links removed), the primary is star wired and the links add or remove lower sections of the primary winding as necessary. NOTE When selecting the input voltage, the one es on the Auxiliary Transformer mn must also me set. fe pages 6 and 8). | Fine and coarse settings are achieved by switching in or out sections of the primary winding, resulting in changes to the transformation ratio of the transformer, and hence the value of secondary output. The table opposite shows the switch contacts for various settings. The output from TM1 is rectified by diodes V1-V3 (pos.) and V4-V6 (neg.). Shunt RS1 ‘senses’ the output current which is displayed by the ammeter A. R1/C2 are transient suppressors and voltmeter V measures the output voltage across terminals XS2+ and XS2-. Inductance L1 has three tappings (XS2-A, XS2-B and XS2-C) for use in various welding modes - see page 5. The output voltage is taken to pins C and G of the control socket XS1. Auxiliary Supplies Switch OF1 connects mains supply voltage to the primary of Auxiliary Transformer TCH. NOTE The connections on ne terminal block must be changed to match the mains dés st see ages. 6 and 8. e 220V for the Fan M (via TBXT4) and Water Cooler ve TBXT3) is taken from the primary of TC1. The fan is powered via capacitor C3. If the temperature rises above a set limit, thermostat ST2 or ST3 will cause KM? to energise, and the fan will speed up until ST2 or ST3 re- sets. The Water Cooler supply is protected by circuit breakers FU3 and FU4. The 42V control voltage from TC1 secondary lights lamp НЫ. NOTE This lamp indicates control voltage ON/OFF and cv not signify isolation from the mains supply i.e. Mains Supply is still connnected to transformer TM1 primary and mains voltage selection blocks. mures 9 42 volts is taken to TB XT5 to power an external CO: Heater, this output is protected by circuit breaker FU1. Control When the torch switch is pressed, it completes a 42V circuit to main contactor KM1 via a thermostat ST1 and welding power is switched on by contacts KM1. It can be seen that a thermal overload (ST1) will result in KM1 becoming de-energised, resulting in welding power being shut down until the unit cools and ST1 resets. OF2 is a ‘Press-to-read’ button which energises the main contactor, allowing the open circuit volts to be read locally.

Switch off and isolate the main supply. 2. Using an insulation/resistance tester (e.g. Megger) set on the ohms range, check for earth continuity between the mains lead earth terminal and all earthed components. A reading of zero ohms should be obtained. A simple bulb and battery may be used if a megger or similar is not available. The bulb should glow brightly if continuity is satisfactory. 3. Manually hold on contactor KM1 or short circuits its contacts. 4. Wire together the L1, L2 and L3 terminals (or the cable ends) to form a ‘common junction’. 5. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the ‘ON’ position. 6. Wire together the (-) and (+) output sockets. 7. Using a 500V insulation tester (e.g. megger) check for an insulation resistance of at least 2m ohms between: a. The input terminals ‘common junction’ and the output terminals. b. The input terminals and pin F of XS1 (42V connections). 8. Remove all shorting links, release the contactor, reconnect to the mains supply and test the equipment before use. Overload Protection The overload protection thermostat is mounted on the diode bridge and will interrupt the welding current when the rectifier is overloaded. The current will automatically be reset when the unit is adequately cooled down. If the unit shuts off, keep the mains switched on leaving the fan running to minimise the cooling time. = Schedule Maintenance Daily 1. Check all welding and electrical cable for signs of cracking or general deterioration. 2. Check that all electrical and gas connections are in good physical condition. 3. Check the torch for damage. Replace any suspect part(s). ALWAYS CHECK THE WELDING AREA DAILY FOR POSSIBLE SAFETY HAZARDS, IF IN DOUBT CONSULT YOUR SAFETY OFFICER. Six-Monthly 1. Switch off the unit and disconnect from the mains electrical supply. 2. Remove the top and side covers (retain the fixing screws). 3. Using a soft brush, remove any dust or dirt from the interior of the unit. If compressed air is used to clean the unit the pressure must not exceed 2kg/cm? (30Ib/in?), and the air must be dry. | SUITABLE EYE AND MOUTH PROTECTION SHOULD BE WORN 4. Check the security of all components and connections. 5. Carry out an insulation and continuity test as detailed above. 6. Refit the covers.
