How to lift up the machine
The weld machine has a strong handle all in one with the frame, used for transporting the machine manually only.
NOTE: These hoisting and transportation devices conform to European standards. Do not use other hoisting and tran-
sportation systems.
Open the packaging
The system essentially consists of:
• Weld unit.
• Separately as an option:
- Welding torches.
- Ground cable, complete with rapid coupling.
- Coolant unit.
- Trolley for transportation.
- Interfaces for simple and advanced automation.
- Generator - automation interface connection cables.
Upon receiving the system:
• Remove the welding generator and all relevant accessories-components from their packaging.
• Check that the weld machine is in good condition, if not report any problems immediately to the seller-distributor.
• Make sure all ventilation grilles are open and that no foreign bodies are blocking the air circulation.
Serial number
The welding machine’s serial number is shown on the unit’s data plate.
The serial number provides the key to tracing the production lot applicable to the product. The serial number may be essential with or-
dering spare parts or planning maintenance.
Installation
The installation site for the system must be carefully chosen in order to ensure its satisfactory and safe use. The user is responsible for
the installation and use of the system in accordance with the producer’s instructions contained in this manual. Before installing the sy-
stem the user must take into consideration the potential electromagnetic problems in the work area. In particular, we suggest that you
should avoid installing the system close to:
• Signalling, control and telephone cables.
• Radio and television transmitters and receivers.
• Computers and control and measurement instruments.
• Security and protection instruments.
Persons fitted with pace-makers, hearing aids and similar equipment must consult their doctor before going near a machine in opera-
tion. The environment in which the equipment is installed must be suitable for the casing’s protection level. This system is cooled by me-
ans of the forced circulation of air, and must therefore be placed in such a way that the air may be easily sucked in and expelled through
the apertures made in the frame.
The welding unit is characterised by the following levels:
• Protection level IP 23 S indicates that the equipment can be used both indoors and outdoors.
• Use class “S” means that the equipment can be used in conditions subject to heightened electrical shock.
Connection to the electrical supply
Connection of the machine to the user line (electrical current) must be performed by qualified personnel.
Before connecting the welding machine to the mains power supply, make sure that rated voltage and frequency
correspond to those provided by the mains power supply and that the welding machine’s power switch is tur-
ned to “O”.
MATRIX X220 AC/DC • Single-phase power supply
Use the welder’s own plug to connect it up to the main power supply. Proceed as follows if you have to replace the plug:
• 2 conducting wires are needed for connecting the machine to the supply.
• The third, which is YELLOW GREEN in colour is used for making the “GROUND” connection.
MATRIX X300 AC/DC • Three-phase power supply
The four-pole cable supplied with the system must be used for the connection to the mains power supply. This cable is made up of:
• Three conductors that are used to connect the machine to the power supply.
• The fourth, which is YELLOW-GREEN, is used to form the “GROUND” connection.
Connect a suitable load of normalised plug (3p+t) to the power cable and provide for an electrical socket com-
plete with fuses or an automatic switch. The ground terminal must be connected to the ground conducting
wire (YELLOW-GREEN) of the supply.
