This machine can operate in harsh environments.
However, it is important that simple preventative
measures are followed to assure long life and reliable
operation:
• This machine must be located where there is free
circulation of clean air without restrictions for air
movement to and from the air vents. Do not cover
the machine with paper, cloth or rags when switched
on.
• Dirt and dust that can be drawn into the machine
should be kept to a minimum.
• This machine has a protection rating of IP21S.
Keep it dry and do not place it on wet ground or in
puddles. Do not use in wet or damp locations. Store
indoors.
• Locate the machine away from radio controlled
machinery. Normal operation may adversely affect
the operation of nearby radio controlled machinery,
which may result in injury or equipment damage.
Read the section on electromagnetic compatibility in
this manual.
• Do not operate in areas with an ambient tempera-
ture greater than 40°C.
%& 
The INVERTEC® 100S cannot
be stacked.
&& 
Place the machine directly on a secure, level surface.
Do not place or operate this machine on a surface
with an incline greater than 15° from horizontal. The
machine may topple over if this procedure is not fol-
lowed.

Check the input voltage, phase, and frequency sup-
plied to this machine before turning it on. The allow-
able input voltage is indicated in the technical specifi-
cation section of this manual and on the rating plate of
the machine. Be sure that the machine is grounded.
Make sure the power available at the input connection
is adequate for normal operation of the machine. The
fuse rating and cable sizes are both indicated in the
technical specification section of this manual.
Fuse the input circuit with time delay fuses marked “D”
or delay type

circuit breakers. Using fuses or circuit
breakers smaller than recommended may result in
“nuisance” shut-offs from welder inrush currents even
if not welding at high currents.

Also called “inverse time” or “thermal/magnetic” circuit breakers.
These circuit breakers have a delay in tripping action that
decreases as the magnitude of the current increases.
The INVERTEC® 100S is recommended for use on
an individual branch circuit.
