Process para-
meters for Gas-
Setup
The following process parameters can be set and displayed for Gas-Setup:
GPr
Gas pre-flow
For setting the gas flow time before the arc is ignited
Setting range: 0 - 9.9 s
Factory setting: 0.1 s
GPo
Gas post-flow
For setting the gas flow time after the arc has gone out
Setting range: 0 - 9.9 s
Factory setting: 0.5 s
GCF
Gas factor
For setting the gas correction factor
Setting range: auto / 0.90 - 20.0
Factory setting: auto
(the correction factor is automatically set for standard gases from the Fronius
welding database)
Process para-
meters for pro-
cess control
The following process parameters can be set and displayed for the process con-
trol:
-
PSt - penetration stabilizer
-
AlSt - arc length stabilizer
Penetration stabilizer and arc length stabilizer can also be set in combination
with one another.
Penetration sta-
bilizer
The penetration stabilizer is used to set the max. permitted change in the wire
speed to ensure that the welding current and hence the penetration is kept
stable or constant with variable stick out.
The penetration stabilizer parameter is only available when the WP PMC (Weld-
ing Process Pulse Multi Control) or WP LSC (Welding Process Low Spatter Con-
trol) option has been enabled on the power source.
auto / 0.0 - 10.0 m/min (ipm
)Factory setting: 0 m/min
auto
A value of 10 m/min is stored for all characteristics, the penetration stabilizer is
activated.
0
The penetration stabilizer is not activated.
The wire speed remains constant.
0.1 - 10.0
The penetration stabilizer is activated.
The welding current remains constant.
