RA 650 E

RA300E, RA400E and RA650E are t yristor (SCR) controlled welding machines, designed to weld all type of

coated electrodes from 2mm, 300 model up to 5 mm, 400 & 650 models up to 6mm, while 400 model can

carbon gauge up to 6mm, 650 model can carbon gauge up to 10mm. For RA650E, cellulosic welding at low

currents is not recommended. Since 300 & 400 models can go as low as 20 Amps, their cellulosic welding

behavior is excellent and if a proper TIG starting unit is connected, they can perform as a DC TIG welder as

well. These units can be grouped as 4, 6, 8 or 9 machines in a rack, for large construction sites like shipbuilding

etc.

Due to th ristor (SCR) and electronic close loop control technology, current is adjusted precisely by a

potentiometer, initial striking ability of the electrodes can be improved via Hot Start potentiometer and certain

electrodes like basic electrodes which have tendency to short circuit and stick to the weld pool could be

avoided by adjusting the Arc Force potentiometer. Also due to this technology, pre-adjusted current stays

stable even during mains fluctuations or if additional welding cables are used. Electrical efficiency of these

machines are 70%.

Even though there is a certain level of electronics is involved in this machine, the PCB is protected in a

separate cabinet inside of the machine against dust and corrosion. With its telescopic arms and big wheels it

can be pulled easily across the working area especially at outdoor welding sites. Also stepless remote current

controlling is possible as an option.

These machines are fan cooled and thermally protected against overheating and phase failures.

2.2 INSTALLATION AND WORKING RECOMMENDATIONS

• Use lifting eyes or fork-lift to carry the machine.

Transport and place the device on a firm and level

ground so that it may not fall over. The maximum

permissible angle of inclination for transport and

assembly is 10°.

• For a better performance, keep the machine at

least 30 cm away from the surrounding objects.

Beware of excessive heat, dust and humidity

around the machine. Try not to operate the

machine under direct sunlight. Machines should

be operated on lower capacities when ambient air

temperature exceeds 40ºC.

• Avoid welding at outdoors where it is windy and

rainy, if this is a must, protect the welding area with

curtains, mobile screens or tents.

• Ensure that operators can easily reach the

machine controls and connections.

• Respect the duty cycles given at the data plate.

Exceeding the duty cycles frequently can damage

the machine and this would void the warranty.

• Do not use stronger fuses than those stated on the

data plate.

• Ensure that the earth clamp is tightly connected as

close as possible to the welding location. Do not let

welding current flow through any media other than

welding cables; e.g. over the machine itself, gas

tubes, chains, ball bearings, etc.

• Use suitable welding fume extraction systems.

Use breathing apparatus if there is a risk of inhaling

in confined places.
