BE SURE THAT ALL INSTALLATION, OPERATION,

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR PROCEDURES ARE

PERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS.

FOR ENGINE POWERED

EQUIPMENT.

1.a. Turn the engine off before troubleshooting

and maintenance work unless the

maintenance work requires it to be running.

1.b. Operate engines in open, well-ventilated areas or vent the engine

exhaust fumes outdoors.

1.c. Do not add the fuel near an open flame welding

arc or when the engine is running. Stop the

engine and allow it to cool before refueling to

prevent spilled fuel from vaporizing on contact

with hot engine parts and igniting. Do not spill fuel when filling

tank. If fuel is spilled, wipe it up and do not start engine until

fumes have been eliminated.

1.d. Keep all equipment safety guards, covers

and devices in position and in good repair.

Keep hands, hair, clothing and tools away

from V-belts, gears, fans and all other

moving parts when starting, operating or

repairing equipment.

1.e. In some cases it may be necessary to remove safety guards to

perform required maintenance. Remove guards only when

necessary and replace them when the maintenance requiring

their removal is complete. Always use the greatest care when

working near moving parts.

1.f. Do not put your hands near the engine fan. Do not attempt to

override the governor or idler by pushing on the throttle control

rods while the engine is running.

1.g. To prevent accidentally starting gasoline engines while turning

the engine or welding generator during maintenance work,

disconnect the spark plug wires, distributor cap or magneto wire

as appropriate.

1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove the radiator

pressure cap when the engine is

hot.

ELECTRIC AND

MAGNETIC FIELDS MAY

BE DANGEROUS

2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductor

causes localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF).

Welding current creates EMF fields around welding cables

and welding machines

2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, and

welders having a pacemaker should consult their physician

before welding.

2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other health effects

which are now not known.

2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order to

minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:

2.d.1. Route the electrode and work cables together - Secure

them with tape when possible.

2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body.

2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode and work

cables. If the electrode cable is on your right side, the

work cable should also be on your right side.

2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as pos-

sible to the area being welded.

2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.

SAFETY

Safety 02 of 04 - 5/16/2018

ELECTRIC SHOCK

CAN KILL.

3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits are

electrically “hot” when the welder is on. Do

not touch these “hot” parts with your bare skin or wet clothing.

Wear dry, hole-free gloves to insulate hands.

3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation.

Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your full area

of physical contact with work and ground.

In addition to the normal safety precautions, if

welding must be performed under electrically

hazardous conditions (in damp locations or while

wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such as

floors, gratings or scaffolds; when in cramped

positions such as sitting, kneeling or lying, if there

is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact

with the workpiece or ground) use the following

equipment:

• Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder.

• DC Manual (Stick) Welder.

• AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.

3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,

electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomatic welding

gun are also electrically “hot”.

3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electrical

connection with the metal being welded. The connection should

be as close as possible to the area being welded.

3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical (earth)

ground.

3.f. Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable and

welding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replace

damaged insulation.

3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.

3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts of electrode

holders connected to two welders because voltage

between the

two can be the total of the open circuit voltage of both

welders.

3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protect

yourself from a fall should you get a shock.

3.j. Also see It ems 6.c. and 8.

ARC RAYS CAN BURN.

4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover plates to protect your

eyes from sparks and the rays of the arc when welding or

observing open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens should

conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.

4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant material

to protect your skin and that of your helpers from the arc rays.

4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammable

screening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor expose

themselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.

FUMES AND GASES

CAN BE DANGEROUS.

5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases

hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these

fumes and gases. When welding, keep your head out of the fume.

Use enough ventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep fumes

and gases away from the breathing zone. When welding

hardfacing (see instructions on container or SDS)

or on lead or cadmium plated steel and other

metals or coatings which produce highly toxic

fumes, keep exposure as low as possible and

within applicable OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits

using local exhaust or mechanical ventilation

unless exposure assessments indicate otherwise.

In confined spaces or in some circumstances,

outdoors, a respirator may also be required.

Additional precautions are also required when

welding

on galvanized steel.

5. b. The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected by

various factors including proper use and positioning of the

equipment, maintenance of the equipment and the specific

welding procedure and application involved. Worker exposure

level should be checked upon installation and periodically

thereafter to be certain it is within applicable OSHA PEL and

ACGIH TLV limits.

5.c. Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors

coming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations. The

heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors to form

phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating products.

5.d. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air and

cause

injury or death. Always use enough ventilation, especially in

confined areas, to insure breathing air is safe.

5.e. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions for this

equipment and the consumables to be used, including the

Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and follow your employer’s safety

practices. SDS forms are available from your welding

distributor or from the manufacturer.

5.f. Also see item 1.b.

SAFETY

Safety 03 of 04 - 5/16/2018

WELDING AND CUTTING

SPARKS CAN CAUSE

FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area. If

this is not possible, cover them to prevent the welding sparks

from starting a fire. Remember that welding sparks and hot

materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and

openings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding near hydraulic lines.

Have a fire extinguisher readily available.

6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site, special

precautions should be used to prevent hazardous situations.

Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSI Standard Z49.1)

and the operating information for the equipment being used.

6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode circuit is

touching the work or ground. Accidental contact can cause

overheating and create a fire hazard.

6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until the

proper steps have been taken to insure that such procedures

will not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substances inside.

They can cause an explosion even though they have been

“cleaned”. For information, purchase “Recommended Safe

Practices for the Preparation for Welding and Cutting of

Containers and Piping That Have Held Hazardous Substances”,

AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society

(see address above).

6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting or

welding. They may explode.

6.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oil free

protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless

trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wear ear plugs

when welding out of position or in confined places. Always wear

safety glasses with side shields when in a welding area.

6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the welding area

as practical. Work cables connected to the building framework or

other locations away from the welding area increase the

possibility of the welding current passing through lifting chains,

crane cables or other alternate circuits. This can create fire

hazards or overheat lifting chains or cables until they fail.

6.h. Also see item 1.c.

6.I. Read and follow NFPA 51B “Standard for Fire Prevention During

Welding, Cutting and Other Hot Work”, available from NFPA, 1

Batterymarch Park, PO box 9101, Quincy, MA 022690-9101.

6.j. Do not use a welding power source for pipe thawing.

CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IF

DAMAGED.

7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders containing

the correct shielding gas for the process used

and properly operating regulators designed for

the gas and pressure used. All hoses, fittings,

etc. should be suitable for the application and

maintained in good condition.

7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained to

an undercarriage or fixed support.

7.c. Cylinders should be located:

• Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected

to physical damage.

• A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations

and any other source of heat, sparks, or flame.

7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other

electrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.

7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outlet

when opening the cylinder valve.

7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and hand tight

except when the cylinder is in use or connected for use.

7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gas cylinders,

associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l, “Precautions for

Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in Cylinders,” available from

the Compressed Gas Association, 14501 George Carter Way

Chantilly, VA 20151.

FOR ELECTRICALLY

POWERED EQUIPMENT.

8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnect

switch at the fuse box before working on

the equipment.

8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. National Electrical

Code, all local codes and the manufacturer’s recommendations.

8.c. Ground the equipment in accordance with the U.S. National

Electrical Code and the manufacturer’s recommendations.

SAFETY

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ

Pour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instruc-

tions et les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent

dans ce manuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté

générales suivantes:

Sûreté Pour Soudage A L’Arc

1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:

a. Les circuits à l’électrode et à la piéce sont sous tension

quand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujours

tout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nue

ou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sans

trous pour isoler les mains.

b. Faire trés attention de bien s’isoler de la masse quand on

soude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un plancher

metallique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans

les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une

grande partie du corps peut être en contact avec la

masse.

c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câble

de soudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr état

defonctionnement.

d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans l’eau pour le

refroidir.

e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tension

des porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à soud-

er parce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être le

total de la tension à vide des deux machines.

f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source de

courant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautions

pour le porte-électrode s’applicuent aussi au pistolet de

soudage.

2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se pro-

téger contre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne

jamais enrouler le câble-électrode autour de n’importe quelle

partie du corps.

3. Un coup d’arc peut être plus sévère qu’un coup de soliel,

donc:

a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant approprié

ainsi qu’un verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du

rayonnement de l’arc et des projections quand on soude

ou quand on regarde l’arc.

b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger la

peau de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement de

l‘arc.

c. Protéger l’autre personnel travaillant à proximité au

soudage à l’aide d’écrans appropriés et non-inflamma-

bles.

4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de l’arc de

soudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection

libres de l’huile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse,

pantalons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.

5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone de

soudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans les

zones où l’on pique le laitier.

6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin de

prévenir tout risque d’incendie dû aux étincelles.

7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé de

la masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer un

échauffement et un risque d’incendie.

8. S’assurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possible

de la zone de travail qu’il est pratique de le faire. Si on place

la masse sur la charpente de la construction ou d’autres

endroits éloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risque

de voir passer le courant de soudage par les chaines de lev-

age, câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut provoquer

des risques d’incendie ou d’echauffement des chaines et des

câbles jusqu’à ce qu’ils se rompent.

9. Assurer une ventilation suffisante dans la zone de soudage.

Ceci est particuliérement important pour le soudage de tôles

galvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal qui

produit des fumeés toxiques.

10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenant

d’opérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. La

chaleur ou les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir avec les

vapeurs du solvant pour produire du phosgéne (gas forte-

ment toxique) ou autres produits irritants.

11. Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements sur la sûreté,

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POUR

LES MACHINES À SOUDER À

TRANSFORMATEUR ET À

REDRESSEUR

1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code

de l’électricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dis-

positif de montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à

une bonne mise à la terre.

2. Autant que possible, I’installation et l’entretien du poste

seront effectués par un électricien qualifié.

3. Avant de faires des travaux à l’interieur de poste, la

debrancher à l’interrupteur à la boite de fusibles.

4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leur

place.

SAFETY

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

Conformance

Products displaying the CE mark are in conformity with European Community Council Directive of 3 May

1989 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility

(89/336/EEC). It was manufactured in conformity with a national standard that implements a harmonized

standard: EN 60974-10 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Product Standard for Arc Welding Equipment.

It is for use with other Lincoln Electric equipment. It is designed for industrial and professional use.

Introduction

All electrical equipment generates small amounts of electromagnetic emission. Electrical emission may be

transmitted through power lines or radiated through space, similar to a radio transmitter. When emissions

are received by other equipment, electrical interference may result. Electrical emissions may affect many

kinds of electrical equipment; other nearby welding equipment, radio and TV reception, numerical controlled

machines, telephone systems, computers, etc. Be aware that interference may result and extra precautions

may be required when a welding power source is used in a domestic establishment.

Installation and Use

The user is responsible for installing and using the welding equipment according to the manufacturer’s

instructions. If electromagnetic disturbances are detected then it shall be the responsibility of the user of the

welding equipment to resolve the situation with the technical assistance of the manufacturer. In some cases

this remedial action may be as simple as earthing (grounding) the welding circuit, see Note. In other cases it

could involve construction of an electromagnetic screen enclosing the power source and the work complete

with associated input filters. In all cases electromagnetic disturbances must be reduced to the point where

they are no longer troublesome.

Note: The welding circuit may or may not be earthed for safety reasons according to national codes.

Changing the earthing arrangements should only be authorized by a person who is compe-

tent to access whether the changes will increase the risk of injury, e.g., by allowing parallel

welding current return paths which may damage the earth circuits of other equipment.

Assessment of Area

Before installing welding equipment the user shall make an assessment of potential electromagnetic prob-

lems in the surrounding area. The following shall be taken into account:

a) other supply cables, control cables, signaling and telephone cables; above, below and adjacent to the

welding equipment;

b) radio and television transmitters and receivers;

c) computer and other control equipment;

d) safety critical equipment, e.g., guarding of industrial equipment;

e) the health of the people around, e.g., the use of pacemakers and hearing aids;

f) equipment used for calibration or measurement

g) the immunity of other equipment in the environment. The user shall ensure that other equipment being

used in the environment is compatible. This may require additional protection measures;

h) the time of day that welding or other activities are to be carried out.

L10093 3-1-96H

SAFETY

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

The size of the surrounding area to be considered will depend on the structure of the building and other

activities that are taking place. The surrounding area may extend beyond the boundaries of the premises.

Methods of Reducing Emissions

Mains Supply

Welding equipment should be connected to the mains supply according to the manufacturer’s recommenda-

tions. If interference occurs, it may be necessary to take additional precautions such as filtering of the mains

supply. Consideration should be given to shielding the supply cable of permanently installed welding equip-

ment, in metallic conduit or equivalent. Shielding should be electrically continuous throughout its length. The

shielding should be connected to the welding power source so that good electrical contact is maintained

between the conduit and the welding power source enclosure.

Maintenance of the Welding Equipment

The welding equipment should be routinely maintained according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

All access and service doors and covers should be closed and properly fastened when the welding equip-

ment is in operation. The welding equipment should not be modified in any way except for those changes

and adjustments covered in the manufacturers instructions. In particular, the spark gaps of arc striking and

stabilizing devices should be adjusted and maintained according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Welding Cables

The welding cables should be kept as short as possible and should be positioned close together, running at

or close to floor level.

Equipotential Bonding

Bonding of all metallic components in the welding installation and adjacent to it should be considered.

However, metallic components bonded to the work piece will increase the risk that the operator could

receive a shock by touching these metallic components and the electrode at the same time. The operator

should be insulated from all such bonded metallic components.

Earthing of the Workpiece

Where the workpiece is not bonded to earth for electrical safety, not connected to earth because of its size

and position, e.g., ships hull or building steelwork, a connection bonding the workpiece to earth may reduce

emissions in some, but not all instances. Care should be taken to prevent the earthing of the workpiece

increasing the risk of injury to users, or damage to other electrical equipment. Where necessary, the connec-

tion of the workpiece to earth should be made by a direct connection to the workpiece, but in some countries

where direct connection is not permitted, the bonding should be achieved by suitable capacitance, selected

according to national regulations.

Screening and Shielding

Selective screening and shielding of other cables and equipment in the surrounding area may alleviate prob-

lems of interference. Screening of the entire welding installation may be considered for special applications.

SELECT SUITABLE LOCATION

Place the welder where clean cooling air can freely

circulate in through the front louvers and out through

the rear louvers. Dirt, dust or any foreign material that

can be drawn into the welder should be kept at a

minimum. Failure to observe these precautions can

result in excessive operating temperatures and

nuisance shut-downs.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC)

The EMC classification of the

DC655e (CE)

is Industrial,

Scientific and Medical (ISM) group 2, class A. The

DC655e

(CE)

is for industrial use only. (See prints L10093-1, -2

Safety Pages in the front of Instruction Manual for further

details).

Locate the

DC655e (CE)

away from radio controlled

machinery. The normal operation of the

DC655e (CE)

may adversely affect the operation of RF controlled equip-

ment, which may result in bodily injury or damage to the

equipment.

STACKING

The DC655e (CE) may be stacked three-high provid-

ed the bottom machine is on a stable, hard, level sur-

face. Be sure that the two pins in the roof fit into the

slots in the base of the DC655e (CE) above it.

TILTING

Do not place the machine on a surface that is inclined

enough to create a risk of the machine falling over.

ELECTRICAL

INPUT CONNECTIONS

Before installing the machine check that the input sup-

ply voltage, phase, and frequency are the same as the

voltage, phase, and frequency as specified on the

welder nameplate.

Use input wire sizes that meet local electrical codes or

see the Technical Specifications page in this manu-

al.

Input power supply entry is through the hole in the

Case Back Assembly. See Figure A.1 for the location

of the machine’s input cable entry opening, Input

Contactor (CR1), and reconnect panel.

FUSE AND WIRE SIZES

Protect the input circuit with the super lag fuses or

delay type circuit breakers listed on the Technical

Specifications page of this manual for the machine

being used. They are also called inverse time or ther-

mal/magnetic circuit breakers.

DO NOT use fuses or circuit breakers with a lower

amp rating than recommended. This can result in

“nuisance” tripping caused by inrush current even

when machine is not being used for welding at high

output currents.

GROUND CONNECTION

Ground the frame of the machine. A ground

terminal marked with the symbol ( ) is located inside

the case back of the machine near the input contactor.

Access to the input box assembly is at the upper rear

of the machine. See your local and national electrical

codes for proper grounding methods. Use grounding

wire sizes that meet local electrical codes or see the

Technical Specifications page in this manual.

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Only qualified personnel should

perform this installation.

• Turn the input power OFF at the discon-

nect switch or fuse box before working on

this equipment.

• Turn the Power switch on the DC655e

(CE) “OFF” before connecting or discon-

necting output cables, wire feeder or

remote connections, or other equipment.

• Do not touch electrically hot parts.

• Always connect the DC655e (CE) ground-

ing terminal (located on the welder near

the reconnect panel) to a good

electrical earth ground.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The DC655e (CE) is an energy efficient constant voltage DC

power source that produces outstanding arc characteristics

for multiple CV or CC welding processes

This is a European 50/60 Hertz models that is “CE” qualified

and rated for IEC 974-1.

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES AND

EQUIPMENT

The DC655e (CE) is designed for CV or CC process-

es.

CV processes include: GMAW (MIG) and FCAW (flux-

cored) welding, plus the capability of CV submerged

arc welding and air carbon arc gouging. It produces

outstanding welding performance with a single range

full output control knob.

CC processes include stick welding, CC submerged

arc and superior air carbon arc gouging with up to 3/8”

(10 mm) diameter carbons. The same single range full

output control knob is used and paralleling capability

is provided.

The DC655e (CE) is recommended for use with

OPERATION

B-3

1. INPUT POWER ON/OFF SWITCH - This tog-

gle switch turns the machine on or off. Putting the

switch in the ON position energizes the

machine’s input contactor applying input power to

the machine. Switching the switch to the

OFF position de-energizes the input contactor.

This switch is also used to reset a machine shut-

down. (See Machine Shutdown section)

2. PILOT LIGHT - When the power switch is in the

ON position the machine’s white pilot light will illu-

minate. If the input contactor de-energizes the

machine in a shutdown situation the pilot will still

illuminate. In this situation it will be necessary to

reset the machine by switching the power switch to

the OFF then ON position. (See Machine

Shutdown section)

3. OUTPUT CONTROL - This control provides

continuous control of the machine’s output from

minimum to maximum as it is rotated clockwise.

The CV mode voltage range of control is 13 to 44V.

The CC mode current range of control is 50 to

815A.

4. OUTPUT TERMINALS ON/REMOTE - When this

switch is in the REMOTE position, the DC655e

(CE) output terminals will be electrically “cold” until

a remote device such as a wire feeder closes the

#2 and #4 circuit in the MS-receptacle or terminal

strip. When this switch is in the ON position the

machine’s output terminals will be electrically ener-

gized all the time.

5. LOCAL/REMOTE CONTROL SWITCH - When this

switch is set to the LOCAL position, control of

the output voltage is via the output control on the

DC655e (CE) control panel. When this switch is set

to the REMOTE position, control is through a

remote source such as a wire feeder via the #75,

#76, and #77 leads in the MS-receptacle or terminal

strip.

6. CC STICK/CV SUBARC/CV MIG MODE SWITCH -

This switch selects the proper welding characteris-

tics for the process being used:

CC Stick

provides a constant current output

characteristic through the 50 to 815 amp range.

The current is adjusted within this range by the

Output Control dial. The open circuit (no load)

voltage will be about 68 volts in this mode.

DC655e (CE) (RED-D-ARC)

CONTROLS AND SETTINGS

All operator controls and adjustments are located on the case front of the DC655e (CE). Refer to Figures B.1,

and B.2 and corresponding explanations.

FIGURE B.1 CONTROL PANEL CONTROLS

DC655e

B-4

OPERATION

B-4

This mode is used for stick welding (SMAW) and

CC air carbon-arc gouging, and employs a “Hot

Start” feature and an Arc Force Control. CC

mode may also be used for CC submerged arc

with appropriate arc-sensing CC(VV) wire feed-

ers if arc force is set high enough. Refer to

Welding Performance Section.

CV MIG

provides a constant voltage output

characteristic through the 13 to 44 volt range.

The voltage is adjusted within this range by the

Output Control dial.

The dynamic characteristics of this mode are

ideal for open arc processes including,

MIG/MAG (GMAW), Innershield®, and other

cored wire (FCAW) processes. Faster travel

submerged arc processes and CV air carbon-

arc gouging may also use this mode. Refer to

the Welding Performance Section.

CV Sub-Arc

provides the same constant voltage

output control range as CV MIG, but the dynam-

ic characteristics of this mode make possible

improved CV (constant wire speed) submerged

arc welding. This improved process is most

noticeable on high deposition slow travel speed

welds. Fast travel, narrow bead subarc welds

will have better performance in CV MIG mode.

7. ARC FORCE CONTROL - This control is only func-

tional in CC Stick mode. It prevents “stubbing” of

the electrode by providing the extra weld current

that linearly increases as the welding voltage

decreases below a level determined by the setting

of the constant current control.

The Arc Force control knob, located behind the

latched cover, adjusts arc force from “Min” (no cur-

rent increase) to “Max” (higher short circuit current).

“Mid” position (#5) is recommended for most CC

welding. Refer to the Welding Performance

Section.

8. OPTIONAL VOLTMETER & AMMETER - Digital

or analog meter kits are available as field installed

options. Refer to the Accessories Section of this

manual.

9. THERMAL PROTECTION LIGHT - If the

machine overheats due to lack of proper air flow

through the machine or due to exceeding the

machine’s duty cycle, thermostats will disable the

welding output and this light will illuminate. Input

power is still applied to the machine and the cooling

fan will continue to run. When the machine cools

the welding output will resume.

at the terminal strip and the 4-pin receptacle for the

optional paralleling kit. This terminal strip contains

the same circuits as the 14 pin MS-receptacle. The

cover also provides for installation of cable strain

relief clamps.

6. POSITIVE OUTPUT TERMINAL - This output ter-

minal is for connecting a welding cable. To change

welding polarity and for proper welding cable size

refer to Electrode and Work Cables in the

Installation Section of this manual.

7. NEGATIVE OUTPUT TERMINALS - These output

terminals are for connecting a welding cable to

either the High Inductance or Low Inductance

Terminal for desired arc characteristics. (Low induc-

tance is recommended only for NR203Ni 1%). To

change welding polarity and for proper welding

cable size refer to Electrode and Work Cables in

the Installation Section of this manual.

CASE BACK CONNECTIONS

220VAC AUXILIARY RECEPTACLE

This receptacle provides up to 2 amps of 220VAC

auxiliary power for a water cooler.

220VAC 2 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER

This breaker protects the 220VAC auxiliary circuit

located in the 220VAC receptacle.

AUXILIARY POWER

42 volt AC auxiliary power, as required for some wire

feeders, is available through the wire feeder recepta-

cle. A 10 amp circuit breaker protects the 42 volt cir-

cuit from overloads.

Note that some types of equipment, especially

pumps and large motors, have starting currents

which are significantly higher than their running

current. These higher starting currents may cause

the circuit breaker to open. If this situation occurs,

the user should refrain from using the DC655e

(CE) auxiliary power for that equipment.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

MACHINE PROTECTION

THERMAL FAN CONTROL

The machine’s cooling fan remains off when the tem-

perature of the rectifiers and windings inside the

machine are below that requiring air flow cooling, as

determined by electronic monitoring of several thermal

sensors and the welding current of the machine. The

fan may remain off until welding begins, but once the

fan is activated, it will remain on for at least 5 minutes

to assure proper cooling. This feature saves energy

and also minimizes the amount of dirt and other air

borne particles being drawn into the machine.

FAN MOTOR FUSE

A 10 amp slow blow fuse protects the fan motor cir-

cuit. This fuse is located inside the DC655e (CE)

mounted on the fan motor bracket.

MACHINE SHUTDOWN

The DC655e (CE) provides shutdown modes for ther-

mal over-heating, excessive load currents and faults.

It also provides an idle timer shutdown feature for

additional operating economy.
