Power Supply - Start Up - GYS INVERTER 5000 Manual De Instrucciones

Thank you for choosing our product ! In order to take the most of your welder, please read the following instructions
carefully :
The INVERTER 5000 is, Inverter, portable welder, for covered electrode and TIG Lift in DC. It operates on a 230V
single-phase power supply. It allows welding with rutiles, basic, stainless steel and cast iron electrodes. In TIG, it
allows to weld most of metals except aluminium and alloys. It is protected for a use on electric generators (230V /+-
15%).
POWER SUPPLY – START UP
• This machine is delivered with a 230V socket /16A plug type EEC7/7. It must be plugged on a 230 V (50-60Hz)
with earth. The absorbed effective current (I1eff) is shown on the machine, for maximal using conditions. Check
that the power supply and its protection (fuse and/or circuit-breaker) is compatible with the necessary current
during use. In some countries, the change of plug can be necessary to allow a use at maximal conditions. In
intensive use, preferably select a 20 A plug. The welder must be installed so that the mains plug is accessible.
• The start-up is done by pressing the ON / STAND BY.
• The device turns into protection mode if the power supply tension is over 265V for. To indicate this default, the
screen displays . Once in protection mode, you have to unplug the device and plug it back on a socket
delivering the correct tension.
• These are A-class devices. They are designed to be used in an industrial or professional environment. In a
different environment, it can be difficult to ensure electromagnetic compatibility, due to conducted disturbances
as well as radiation.
• From 1st December 2010, the new standard EN 60974-10 will be applicable for INVERTER 5000 : Warning: these
materials do not comply with IEC 61000-3-12. If they are to be connected to a low-voltage mains supply, it is the
responsibility of the user to ensure they can be connected. If necessary consult the operator of your electrical
distribution system
ELECTRODE WELDING (MMA Mode)
• Apply the usual welding rules.
• Leave the machine connected to the supply after welding in order to let it cool down.
• Thermal protection : thermal protection indicator turns on and the cooling time is about 2 to 5 min according to external temperature.
• Your machine is equipped with 3 specific functions to Inverters :
The Hot Start ( adjustable mode, see below) increases the current at the beginning of the welding.
The Arc Force increases the current in order to avoid the sticking when electrode enters in melted metal.
The Anti Sticking allows you to easily withdraw your electrode without damaging it in case of sticking.
Selection of MMA Mode and intensity setting :
- Select the MMA position  with the selector.
- Adjust the wished current (display ) using the key .
Hot Start adjustments
Hot Start is adjustable: - from 0 to 60% within the limit of 160A.
To adjust the Hot Start, go through the following steps:
 Press the selector  during 3 seconds.
 The inscription "HS" (Hot Start) starts blinking and a number appears.
 Set the required percentage ( display ) using keys 
 Valid the required figure by pressing the selector button 
TIG LIFT WELDING
The DC TIG welding requires a protective gas (argon).
Follow the steps as below :
1. Connect the earth clamp on the positive pole (+).
Connect a torch "valve" (refGYS. 044425) on the negative polarity (-).
2. Connect the pipe gas torch on the gas cylinder
3. Select TIG mode  using the selector button .
4. Adjust the wished current (display ) using the keys .
Advice : Take 30A/mm as a default setting and adjust according to the part to weld.
5. Set the gas flow on flewmeter of the gas cylinder, and then open the valve of the torch
6. To boot :
a-Touch the electrode on the welding part b- Raise the electrode 2 to 5 mm
of the part to be welded
