Care, maintenance and disposal
General Under normal operating conditions, the power source requires only a minimum of care and
maintenance. However, it is vital to observe some important points to ensure the welding
system remains in a usable condition for many years.
Safety
At every start-up - Check mains plug, mains cable, welding torch, interconnecting hosepack and ground-
ing (earthing) connection for damage
- Check whether the all-round clearance of 0.5 m (1 ft. 8 in.) is kept to ensure that the
cooling air can easily flow and escape.
Every 2 months - If present: clean air filter
Every 6 months
- open the device
- clean out the device interior using dry compressed air at reduced pressure
- if a lot of dust has accumulated, clean the cooling air ducts.
Updating firm-
ware
IMPORTANT! To update the firmware you need a PC or laptop that is connected to the
power source via an Ethernet network.
Get latest firmware (e.g. from the Fronius Download Center)
File format: official_tpsi_x.x.x-xxxx.ffw
Establish Ethernet connection between PC/laptop and power source
Open the power source SmartManager (see page 171)
Transfer the firmware to the power source (see page 185)
Disposal Dispose of in accordance with the applicable national and local regulations.
WARNING! An electric shock can be fatal. Before opening the device
- Turn the mains switch to the "O" position
- Unplug the machine from the mains
- Prevent it from being switched on again
- Using a suitable measuring instrument, check to make sure that electrically
charged components (e.g. capacitors) have discharged
NOTE! Air inlets and outlets must never be covered, not even partially.
NOTE! Risk of damage to electronic components. Do not bring air nozzle too
close to electronic components.
