The ARC500 is an arc welding machine, particularly suitable for sheet metal with a thickness of approx. 2 mm or more and for cut-to-size ISO-ISO blanks and Fiberfix studs. Microcontroller, function monitoring, error code display, stroke test
Welding frequency: 5 to 15 pins/min (depends on application and pin diameter).
Applications
- Particularly suitable for sheet metal with thickness ≥2 mm
- ISO - Particularly suitable for welding ARCO-ISO punched pins and Fiberfix nails; also materials with high heat resistance; excellent for insulation applications in building construction and fire-resistant insulation (FRI)
Process variants
- Short-cycle arc welding
- Rotary arc welding
Equipment
- Ceramic ferrule welding (standard)
Advantages
Features
- Microcontroller - for precise process timing, optimum functional reliability and maximum operating convenience
- Function monitoring - automatic function test after switch-on; monitoring of all internal system functions
- Error codes - via bright LEDs
- Stroke test - for gun with lift-off
Structure
- Easy to use
- Compact
- Robust - metal structure resistant to work in the company or on the construction site
Safety
- With integrated mains filter (protected against voltage fluctuations)
- Ideal for workplaces with large main voltage fluctuations - can also be used with critical voltage fluctuations (- 25% + 20%)
- EMC test
- Recording of voltage peaks during welding
- Restart blocking - prevents welding on an already welded element
- Thermal monitoring of transformer - automatic switch-off in the event of overheating
- Temperature regulated by a fan - reduces noise and dust in the welder (increased system reliability)
- Good separation of transformer and control unit - protects electronic components from dust and thermal loading
- The control unit is separated from the soldering lines - high degree of functional safety
- Cooling air tunnel - a flow of fresh air to the transformer protects the electronic components from dirt and dust
- Very good protection against external interference
- IP 23 protection rating
- Also allows work outdoors
Welding
- Manual potentiometer - infinite time settings; easy function monitoring via bright LEDs; welding time display; control and monitoring of all system functions
- Powerful - built-in current reserves
- Problem-free change of voltage polarity by reconnecting welding current and ground cables (polarity reversal)
