DIGIPULSE 450i POWER SOURCE FOR 50 HZ SERVICE
ESAB Part No. 31690
L-TEC Part No. 35618
June, 1995
I. General
This supplement covers the Digipulse 450i Power Source
specifically designed for 220/380/415 Volt — 50 Hertz service. It is identical to the standard Digipulse 450i, P/N 31120
unit covered in Form 15-014 except for the following:
IMPORTANT
As shipped from the factory, all Export units are hookedup to operate from a 415 volt input. If your input requirements do not match the factory-shipped provisions, the
following data should be heeded:
— You must change the input voltage links connections
(for the main and control transformer) to match your
actual input voltage, as described in Section II-C of
this insert.
A. Replacement Parts:
Main Transformer Assy. (MTR) - P/N 31693 replaces P/N
31133
Control Transformer Assy. (CTR) - P/N 31694 replaces
P/N 31134
Voltage Changeover Terminal Board Assy (TB) - P/N 31697
replaces P/N 31142
II. Form 15-014 is applicable to this unit except as
follows:
A. See Revised Specification Table following.
B. See Revised Table for Recommended Input Conduc-
tors and Line Fuses.
Note that the customer can either use the factory-supplied
input power cable (No. 6 AWG, 4/c, type SO, 90° C, 10-ft.
lg.), or provide his own leads per the Input table.

C. Primary Voltage Changeover Connections.
As mentioned in Section I, the primary windings of the main
and control transformer are factory-connected for 415-volt
operation. These connections are located on the terminal
board under the top cover, and are made using
reconnectable links. To accommodate the other input voltages available, the links must be repositioned as marked
on the terminal board (see illustration following).

D. Changes to Troubleshooting Section VI, as follows:
1. Reference the “Power Boards, PB1/PB2, Troubleshooting”
chart and change the “voltage measurement” readings of
the “Voltage Checks” data as follows:

P1-8 P1-10 24 vac
P1-8 P1-9 12 vac
P1-9 P1-10 12 vac
2. Reference the “Input Bridge, IBR, Troubleshooting” chart,
and change the “voltage measurement” readings of the
“Voltage Checks” data as follows:
Voltage Checks
TB-1 (+) TB-9 (-) 358-280 vdc @ 220 vac (+15%/-10%)
618-484 vdc @ 380 vac (+15%/-10%)
