National Electrical Code For Unbalanced AC TIG Welding Above 180 Amps, 255A/16V/40% Duty Cycle, Auto Balance Based on the 1993 U.
– 9 – INST ALLA TION Read entire installation section before starting installation. Safety Precautions SELECT SUIT ABLE LOCA TION Place the welder where clean cooling air can freely circulate in through the rear louvers and out through the side louvers.
– 10 – INST ALLA TION 4. Keep the torch in good repair and all connections tight to reduce high frequency leakage. 5. The work terminal must be connected to a ground within ten feet of the welder, using one of the following methods: a ) A metal underground water pipe in direct contact with the earth for ten feet or more.
– 11 – INST ALLA TION TABLE 1 Cable Sizes for Combined Lengths of Copper Electrode and Work Cable Machine Size Lengths up to 100 ft 100 to 200 ft 200 to 250 ft 255 Amp 40% Duty Cycle #2 (35mm 2 ) #1 (45mm 2 ) 1/0 (55mm 2 ) Welders are shipped connected for the highest input voltage as listed on the rating Plate.
– 12 – INST ALLA TION DO NOT operate a water-cooled torch unless water is flowing. Water doesn’t flow until solenoid is actuated. If using a water-cooled torch with a Magnum water cooler, connect the cooler water outlet to the ‘Water Valve In” fitting.
– 13 – ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. • Do not touch electrically live parts or electrode with skin or wet clothing. • Insulate yourself from work and ground. • Always wear dry insulating gloves. FUMES AND GASES can be dangerous. • Keep your head out of fumes.

– 16 – • Welding current limit can be preset from 5 to 315 amps and is displayed on the Ammeter when not welding. • Auto Balance circuitry automatically provides the proper amount of cleaning and penetration when AC TIG welding. Manual AC wave balance adjust- ment is also possible.
– 17 – • Strain relief holes in base for welding cables, gas and water hoses and control cables. • Easy access for input connections. Connections are simple strip and clamp of input wires (no lugs required). • Low fan noise at idle. • Modular construction for easy servicing.
– 18 – OPERA TION 4. AC WAVE BALANCE: These keys are active in the AC TIG mode only. They are used to set the amount of cleaning and/or penetration produced during an AC TIG weld. Auto Balance™ automatically sets the AC Wave Balance according to the welding current.
– 19 – OPERA TION A. AC/DC INDICATOR: This symbol represents the output polarity of the 255 . . . either AC or DC. AC is shown in Figure 4A; DC is shown in Figure 4B. B . VOLTMETER: This meter displays open circuit voltage as well as welding voltage, as measured on the output studs of the Square Wave TIG 255.

– 21 – OPERA TION 7. If welding with AC polarity, select Auto Balance™. This gives the optimum ratio between cleaning and penetration, automatically adjusted for the output current. If manual adjustment of the AC Wave Balance is desired, select Manual Balance, and adjust the wave balance with the Cleaning and Penetration keys.
– 22 – OPERA TION 9. Set the Afterflow time with the Seconds Up/Down keys. Afterflow time provides shielding gas flow (and cooling water, if used) after the weld. Use short Afterflow times with low currents and small tungstens, long afterflow times at high output currents with large tungstens.
– 23 – OPERA TION 50/60Hz MACHINES - (Codes 10024 thru 10026 & 10134) Square Wave TIG 255 machines rated for 50/60Hz operation provide 2 amps of 220 volt AC power at a continental European (Schuko) type receptacle, located on the lower case back of the machine.
