ESAB FABRICATOR 211i
SAFETY/INSTALLATION 3-4 Manual 0-5450
3.05 Ventilation
!
WARNING
Since the inhalation of welding fumes can be harmful, ensure that the welding area is effec-
tively ventilated.
3.06 Electricity Supply
!
CAUTION
The Electricity Supply voltage should be within 208/230V AC ± 10% or 115 V AC ± 10%. Too low a supply
voltage may cause poor welding performance in STICK mode such as the arc snuffing out during welding.
Too high a supply voltage will cause components to overheat and possibly fail. The Welding power Source
must be:
• Correctly installed, if necessary, by a qualied electrician.
• Correctly earthed (electrically) in accordance with local regulations.
• Connected to the correct size power point and fuse as per the Specications on page 3-2.
WARNING
The Fabricator 211i must be electrically connected by a qualified electrical trades-person. Damage to the
PCA (Power Control Assembly) could occur if 265 VAC or higher is applied to the Primary Power Cable
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill; SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE is present after removal of input power. DO
NOT TOUCH live electrical parts.
SHUT DOWN welding power source, disconnect input power employing lockout/tagging procedures. Lock-out/tagging procedures
consist of padlocking line disconnect switch in open position, removing fuses from fuse box, or shutting OFF and red-tagging circuit
breaker or other disconnecting device.
Power Cords Included With Power Supply
Attached to the power supply is an input power cord with a 208/230Volt 50 Amp NEMA 6-50 P for plug. Supplied adapter allow for
connection of the power supply input cable plug to 115 V input power.

Electrical Input Requirements
Operate the welding power source from a single-phase 50/60 Hz, AC power supply. The input voltage must match one of the electri-
cal input voltages shown on the input data label on the unit nameplate. Contact the local electric utility for information about the type
of electrical service available, how proper connections should be made, and inspection required. The line disconnect switch provides
a safe and convenient means to completely remove all electrical power from the welding power supply whenever necessary to
inspect or service the unit. The Welding Power Source must be:
Do not connect in input (WHITE or BLACK) conductor to the ground terminal.
