INTRODUCTION
LUA 400 is a welding rectifier built on the inverter principle and designed for welding
with coated electrodes, TIG welding, semi--automatic welding and arc air gouging.
Advanced electronics permit rapid control, low energy consumption, excellent welding characteristics and compensation for mains voltage fluctuation.
Inverter technology contributed to the low weight and compact dimensions of the
unit. The rating plate and connection information are located at the rear of the LUA.
LUA is supplied with two handles, connecting bolts, Allen key and cable couplings.
WARNING
This product is intended for industrial use. In a domestic environment this product
may cause radio interference. It is the users responsibility to take adequate precautions.
WARNING
ARC WELDING AND CUTTING CAN BE INJURIOUS TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. TAKE PRECAUTIONS WHEN WELDING. ASK FOR YOUR EMPLOYER’S SAFETY PRACTICES WHICH SHOULD BE
BASED ON MANUFACTURERS’ HAZARD DATA.
ELECTRIC SHOCK -- Can kill
S Install and earth the welding unit in accordance with applicable standards.
S Do not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet clothing.
S Insulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.
S Ensure your working stance is safe.
FUMES AND GASES -- Can be dangerous to health
S Keep your head out of the fumes.
S Use ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and
the general area.
ARC RAYS -- Can injure eyes and burn skin.
S Protect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective
clothing.
S Protect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.
FIRE HAZARD
S Sparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.
NOISE -- Excessive noise can damage hearing
S Protect your ears. Use ear defenders or other hearing protection.
S Warn bystanders of the risk.
MALFUNCTION -- Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING.

Applications
LUA 400 is the ideal choice for those who require a single power source that permits
the use of all welding methods.
The basic unit, the LUA 400 power source, can be combined with ESAB standard
components to create a complete system for MIG/MAG, manual or TIG welding. T h is
instruction manual only describes the LUA 400 power source. (Order numbers for
complementary equipment can be found in the ”Accessories” section).
Manual welding
The high open circuit voltage and a carefully chosen ”start puff” at the beginning of
welding ensure a smooth start to the welding cycle and easy striking of electrodes.
The ”anti--freeze feature” of LUA greatly reduces the risk of the electrode sticking to
the work piece. If however the electrode does stick then the welding current is automatically reduced so that the electrode can be freed without damage and welding
can continue immediately. This feature facilitates the welding of root beads in particular and saves electrodes.
MIG/MAG welding
In the case of semi--automatic welding the power source must be combined with a
wire feed unit, welding gun and gas bottle.
The latest electronics have been used to produce a compact, manageable and reliable semi--automatic supply with first class characteristics for MIG/MAG welding.
By using ESAB’s wide selection of semi--automatic components (wire feed units, remote controls, welding guns, counterbalance arms and cooling units) you can customise equipment to suit your welding requirements. ESAB’s special brochures describe the wide selection of semi--automatic equipment and accessories.
TIG welding
When combined with ESAB’s TIG--AID and BTD TIG gun the LUA 400 is an excellent
unit for professional TIG welding.
Low current operation is essential for welding thin sheet metal. The LUA 400 satisfies this requirement, with a minimum welding current of just 15 A.
During TIG welding the ”start puff” and ”anti-- freeze” features should be switched off.
t
This is done by turning the rotary switch on the front panel
o the ”TIG” setting.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
This is how the LUA inverter works.
The incoming 3 phase AC current is rectified. Then it is converted back into AC using
a much higher frequency than mains frequency. After transformation the current is
again rectified to give a DC supply for welding. The entire cycle is controlled by a
control circuit that gives the power source the desired static characteristic and dynamic performance.
LUA is divided into four main sections:
S The control section on top, comprising the circuit card, controls and electronics.
S The fan compartment, containing the fan and power resistor.
S The remaining components are mainly divided into mains components and weld-
ing components.
Control system
The LUA control system used modern electronics to create a power source that has
excellent static and dynamic welding characteristics, high efficiency, high power factor, low minimum current, start puff, anti--freeze, foldback, electrically insulated remote control, compensation for mains fluctuations, etc.

INSTALLATION
Check that the welding power source is set up for the available main voltage before
connecting it to the supply.
The voltage is indicated on the rating plate at the rear of the power source.
LUA must be connected to a three phase mains supply.
LUA is supplied with a mains cable. The cable is connected to the terminals L1, L2
and L3 on terminal block K11. The phase sequence is not important. The cable
grommet and cable grip are located on the bottom right at the rear of the rectifier.
The equipment must be earthed in accordance with regulations.
Suitable welding and return cables for the LUA 400 are 50 mm2.
Controls on front panel of LUA:
1. Power switch
2. White lamp which lights up when rectifier
is switched on
3. Yellow lamp which lights up if power
source overheats
4. Rotary switch for selecting between
MIG/MAG, manual, or TIG welding
5. Knob for adjusting welding current.
Equipped with planetary gear to allow
fine adjustment. A sliding clutch prevents
damage caused if the knob is turned past
the min. or max. settings.
6. Toggle switch for selecting between current control on front panel or remote control
7. Socket for remote control
Controls at rear of LUA:
8. Automatic fuse which protects against
overloading and high current spikes
9. Socket for connecting wire feed unit and
MIG/MAG remote control
bu07d001
10. Socket for connecting OCD1 cooling unit
or TIG--AID (220 V)
11. Fuses

OPERATION
1. LUA must be placed upright.
2. Set the automatic fuse on the rear to setting I.
3. Set the power switch to setting I. The power lamp will light up and the fan will
start.
4. Check that there is no restriction in the flow of air.
5. Set the rotary switch to MIG/MAG, manual or TIG, as required. There are three
different MIG/MAG settings. A gives the ”coldest” weld and C gives the ”hottest”
weld.
6. In the case of MMA or TIG welding, set the toggle switch on the front panel to
allow direct or remote control of the welding current, as required.
7. In the case of MIG/MAG welding the remote control must also be connected to
the socket on the wire feed unit and the toggle switches on the wire feed unit and
the front panel must both be set to the appropriate setting.
8. Fine adjust the welding current using the knob on the front panel or using the remote control. See relevant instruction manual.
9. Check that the couplings on the welding cable and return cable are properly connectedtoLUA.
10. LUA is now ready to start welding.
Operating instructions for the wire feed unit and TIG--AID are supplied with that
equipment.
Safety devices
As mentioned previously there is an automatic fuse unit on the rear of the LUA
power source.
In the event of overloading or a high current spike this fuse trips automatically and
switches off the power.
To continue operation the automatic fuse must be reset to setting I. If the fuse trips
repeatedly you should call in a service engineer.
LUA is also equipped with a thermal overload switch that automatically switches off
the power in the event of overload or overheating (yellow lamp lights up). This is
reset automatically once the components have cooled down to an acceptable tem perature.
