Information on the extraction system, intended use

Intended use

The MIG/MAG manual welding torch is intended solely for MIG/MAG welding in manual
applications.
Any other use is deemed to be "not in accordance with the intended purpose." The
manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage resulting from such improper use.
Intended use also means:
-
-
Requirements for It is recommended to only connect den Schweißbrenner to extraction units that meet the
the extraction following requirements:
unit 1.
2.
Cooling type
Water-cooled
Recommended negative pressures for gas-cooled and water-cooled welding torches
Following all the instructions in the Operating Instructions
Carrying out all the specified inspection and maintenance work
Extraction capacity of at least 100 m
- if the value is lower, there is a risk that the welding fumes will not be completely
extracted
- a higher value means there is a risk that shielding gas will be unintentionally
sucked off the weld seam
At least 13,000 Pa (130 mbar) generated negative pressure
- with longer welding torches, the volumetric flow (and thus also the negative
pressure) in the welding torch must be increased accordingly
- the following table shows the recommended negative pressure for a gas-cooled
welding torch and a water-cooled welding torch in each case
- the following diagram shows the relationship between the volumetric flow and
the negative pressure generated in the welding torch (= extraction characteristic
curve)
