1 Input Terminal Board TE1
Provides means for operation on
different input voltages.
2 Power Switch S1
Provide on/off control of unit.
3 Fan Motor FM
Provides cooling of internal compo-
nents.
4 Main Transformer T1
Supplies power to weld output cir-
cuit, various control circuits, main
control board PC1, and fan motor
FM.
5 Control Board PC1
Controls weld output by changing
the SCR gate pulses (conduction
times) after comparing current
feedback to selected amperage
signal.
Also provides input connections for
switches S3, S5, S6, and S7.
6 Arc Control Switch S6 And
Control R2
R2 selects short-circuit amperage
when S6 is On, and High Frequen-
cy control R13 is Off.
7 Crater Time Switch S7 And
Control R11
R11 selects crater time when S7 is
on, and Amperage Control switch
S5 is in Panel position.
8 Thermostat TP1
If T1 overheats, TP1 opens stop-
ping all weld output.
9 Output (Contactor) Switch S3
Selects On or remote contactor
control.
10 AC Balance Control R3
Controls changes to ac output
square wave.
11 Ammeter A1 And Voltmeter
V1
Display weld amperage and volt-
age while welding.
12 Amperage Control Switch S5
And Adjustment Control R1
R1 selects weld output amperage
when S5 is in Panel.
13 Remote 14 Filter Board
PC2/Remote 14 Receptacle
RC1
PC2 protects unit from high fre-
quency, and RC1 connects remote
amperage and contactor controls to
power source.
14 Circuit Breaker CB1
Protects 115 volts ac duplex recep-
tacle RC2 from overload.
