OPERATING MANUAL
4. USING THE WELDER
4.1 Basic controls
Main switch
When you turn the on/o switch into position 1, the main power indicator is illuminated and the welder system starts a power-up sequence. The system is ready for use when the setup panel is ready. Always turn the machine on and o with the power source mains switch. Never use the mains plug as a switch.
Indicator lights
The indicator lights of the machine report its operational state: When the green main power indicator is on, it indicates that the machine is switched on. When the orange warning indicator light is on, the machine is overheated. This is due to a higher than regular working load exceeding the rated duty cycle. The cooling fan continues to cool the machine down. When the light goes o the machine is ready to weld again.
Cooling fans
The A7 MIG Power Source incorporates two simultaneously operating cooling fans. The fans will start during welding as the machine reaches operational temperature, and they will run for 1 to 10 minutes after welding, depending on the heat eect of the completed cycle.

4.4 User identification
4.4.1 Overview
The user identication system enables access control of individual users. The feature is optional and can be turned on when needed. Initially, the user identication system is turned o. The welding system is in the initial state when it is taken into use for the rst time or after a factory reset.
System conguration, control and monitoring functions are divided into three access levels. The lowest level (level
0) covers the smallest subset of functions. The middle level (level 1) covers a larger subset and the highest level (level 2) covers all the available functions. The access level is associated with a user account by specifying a role for the user. See Table 4.18 "User roles in the A7 MIG Welder
system" for descriptions of dierent user roles and the
associated access levels.
User accounts are protected from unauthorized use by a PIN code. The PIN code is a 4-digit numeric code that can have any value between 0000 and 9999. Each user can change their PIN code. Administrator level users can reset the PIN codes of other users. The user identication system requires at least one existing administrator level user account in order to work correctly. The system prevents deleting or changing an administrator user account when no other administrator account exists.
In the initial state, there is only one user account called “Admin” in the system. The PIN code of the Admin user is ‘0000’ (four zeroes) by default.
Table 4.18 User roles in the A7 MIG Welder system
Role Access level Description
Welder Level 0 A welder works on a robot cell changing workpieces and welding. The welder can
adjust welding values within the limits set by the supervisor. The welder cannot change system settings or memory channels.
Supervisor Level 1 A supervisor teaches the robot new works and prepares the system for welding. The
supervisor species welding value limits to be used by welders. The supervisor creates memory channels and deletes and modies them. The supervisor cannot change the system settings related to the cell conguration.
Administrator Level 2 An administrator builds and maintains the robot cell. The administrator species all
system settings related to the xed environment, for example, emergency stop or welding cable length. The administrator can create, modify and delete other users and set user identication system o if needed.

OPERATING MANUAL
4.5 Touch sensor
The touch sensor is a specic functional system used in automated welding for finding workpiece’s accurate location and position. The touch sensor hardware and I/O is located in the robot interface unit. A welding robot nds the particular edges of the workpiece by touching them either with a welding wire or a gas nozzle. Touches are detected by the touch sensor and the information is passed on to the robot controller.
The touch sensor generates a sensing voltage separately from the welding power source. Touch is detected when there is a shortcut between the workpiece and the sensing tool resulting in a voltage drop. The negative pole of touch sensor’s voltage source is connected to a welding minus. The positive pole of the sensor is connected either to a welding plus or a gas nozzle. The target for the positive pole can be changed by a user. A relay in the touch sensor device enables the conguration by software.
The touch sensor system consists of hardware and software. The hardware consists of a touch sensor device, a fast status output connector and wiring in the wire feeder’s control cable for the gas nozzle use (see Figure 4.20 "Touch
sensing system"). The software enables conguration and
control. Conguration is available in the setup panel and in the web user interface. The touch sensor is controlled by the welding robot using the digital robot interface.

The touch sensor device behaves as a software controllable power source. The power source can be switched on or o from the robot controller by using the digital robot interface. The touch sensor cannot be put on or turned o from the setup panel or the web user interface.
The touch sensor cannot be used when the welding cycle is on.

OPERATING MANUAL
4.5.1 Voltage source, levels and safety
The touch sensor provides eight software selectable DC voltage levels (see Table 4.19,
“Voltage levels”). The voltage level can be congured in the web user interface or the
setup panel. See Subsection 4.5.5, “Selecting output voltage” for more information on the voltage level setup.
All levels have limited continuous power supply to ensure human safety. The 200 V supply drops down under the 113 V level when loaded by a 5.6 kΩ resistor which is the nominal DC resistance of the human body. In some cases, voltage levels above 113 V can still cause minor harm, such as pain, to a person. Use the gate door safety switch with touch sensor levels above 110 V.
The welder system features an arc measurement function which is performed between the welding plus and minus poles near the welding arc using specic cabling and a measurement circuitry. The measurement system inuences touch sensing when the welding wire is used as a touch tool and when the arc measurement cables are connected. The measurement system does not inuence touch sensing when the gas nozzle is used as the touch tool.
The touch sensing is inuenced when
• the arc measurement cable between the power source and the wire feeder (included in the cable set) is connected, but the arc measurement clamp from the wire feeder to the workpiece is disconnected.
• the clamp is also connected. This situation is more harmful because it causes false touch detection at certain voltage levels.
The Table 4.19, “Voltage levels” describes all setups and their relative voltage levels. The accuracy of all values in the table except the nominal voltage is ±5 %.
Table 4.19 Voltage levels

OPERATING MANUAL
4.5.2 Touch tool
Two alternative touch tools can be used for touch sensing (see Figure 4.21, “Welding wire used as touch tool” and
Figure 4.22, “Gas nozzle used as touch tool”). The regular
tool is the welding wire (welding plus). Sometimes the welding wire is not accurate enough. The tip of the welding wire can bend resulting in incorrect position information. In that case the gas nozzle can be used instead. Using the gas nozzle requires extra wiring from wire feeder’s 10-pole peripheral connector (pin F) to the gas nozzle.
The touch tool can be forced by the conguration in both the web user interface and the setup panel, or the selection can be allowed to be managed by the robot controller by using the digital robot interface. See Subsection 4.5.6,
“Conguring touch tool” for more information on these
alternatives.
Figure 4.21 Welding wire used as touching tool
Figure 4.22 Gas nozzle used as touching tool
4.5.3 Fast status output
The fast status output is a direct hardware output for systems where the latency between the sensing and the detection status reception is an issue. The normal latency is around 10 milliseconds through the eldbus. The response time of the fast output is about 1.5 milliseconds.
See the A7 Welder Integration guide for connecting and conguring the fast output.
4.5.4 Selecting output voltage

4.6 Through Arc Seam Tracking (TAST)
Through-Arc Seam Tracking ( TAST) is used in arc welding for following a welding groove automatically by weaving the welding head (see Figure 4.23, “Weaving the welding
head during TAST”) and measuring the arc length. The
seam tracking provides precise welds in setups where the workpiece position within repetitive tasks varies, or when the route of the groove is complicated.
Figure 4.23 Weaving the welding head during TAST
The arc length depends on the wire tip distance from the middle of the groove. Weaving the welding head between the edges of the groove generates a signal that is directly proportional to the arc length (see Figure 4.24, “TAST
signal waveform”). The generated signal is equivalent to
the welding current.
Arc length
Time
1 2 3
Figure 4.24 TAST signal waveform
1. Shor t arc (edge)
2. Long arc (middle)
3. Shor t arc (opposite edge)
The welding power source measures welding current as a contiguous value during welding. It lters the raw current value to generate a stable signal for the TAST. The TAST signal is valid for all MIG/MAG processes including Pulse MIG and Double Pulse MIG.
The TAST signal is passed to a welding robot as a numeric value using the digital robot interface. Using the TAST requires use of certain I/O tables containing a eld for the TAST value and the control signal. See the A7 MIG Welder
Integration guide for more information.
The TAST function is always available in the digital robot interface and therefor it does not have any conguration parameters in the web user interface or in the setup panel.

4.7 Collision sensor
For information on connecting and conguring the collision sensor, see the A7 MIG
Welder Integration guide.
The collision sensor is a module mounted between a robot arm and a welding torch. It protects the torch neck from bending and breaking on collision to an obstacle. The collision detection is usually based on micro switches or optical switches which act on the collision. The information about the detection is passed to the robot that uses it to stop motion immediately to prevent any damage.
In the A7 MIG Welder the collision sensor signal is read by the wire feeder and the information is passed to the robot by the welding system. In addition, a collision causes always the Error 53 Collision detected in the welding system. When the error occurs, the power source stops welding immediately.

4.9 Arc measurement
The welding system supports precise arc voltage, current, and power measurement for specic processes. Using this feature makes it unnecessary to concern about voltage losses in the welding cables. Measurement requires dedicated cables from the power source to the wire feeder (included in the interconnection cable set) and from the wire feeder to the workpiece (a separate cable with a clamp, included in the delivery). See Figure 4.30, “Arc measurement system” for details.

OPERATING MANUAL
4.10 Gas flow sensor
The welding system is equipped with a gas ow sensor that is located inside the wire feeder. The sensor is capable of sensing gas ow for any mixture of six base gases containing Argon (Ar), Carbon dioxide (CO₂), Nitrogen (N₂), Hydrogen (H₂), Oxygen (O₂) and Helium (He). The gas ow sensor provides both ow indication and ow rate outputs. The outputs can be monitored in the web user interface and in a robot pendant through the digital robot interface.
These instructions and specications apply to a gas ow sensor unit that is a standalone
device inside the wire feeder.
They do not apply to an integrated gas ow sensor that uses wire feeder hardware. To check the type of the gas sensor in use, go to setup panel’s Main menu > System cong
menu > Device information and navigate through the list. The standalone gas ow sensor
device appears in the list as “Gas sensor unit”. If that entry does not exist, the system uses the integrated gas ow sensor.
4.10.1 On/Off control
The gas ow sensor can be turned on and o. By default, it is o. When turned on, ow rate and status are monitored in web user interface’s welding display.
Setup panel
Go to the Main menu > System cong menu > Gas sensor menu, navigate to the Enabled parameter and turn the control knob on it to change the gas ow sensor on or o. Press the Save button to save the changes.
Web user interface
Go to the Welding settings > Welding system > Gas sensor settings and select the Gas
sensor on or o by clicking the corresponding button. A pop-up bar with Save and Reset changes buttons will appear at the bottom. Press the Save button in the dialog to save
the settings.
4.10.2 Gas flow sensing level
The welding system can indicate ow rate below sensing level. This feature is enabled when the gas ow sensor has been turned on, the gas ow sensing level has been set to greater than zero, and gas is owing by the means of manual control, or during welding. The indication is reported 3 seconds after the gas valve has been opened. The status is monitored in the welding display of the web user interface, and is passed to the robot via the digital robot interface as the GasFlowOk signal.
Setup panel
Go to the Main menu > System cong menu > Gas sensor menu, navigate to the Level parameter and turn the control knob on it to change the gas ow sensing level. Press the
Save button to save the changes.
Web user interface
Go to the Welding settings > Welding system > Gas sensor settings and adjust the Gas ow
sensing level parameter by using the slider, or by clicking on the value and typing a new
value. A pop-up bar with Save and Reset changes buttons will appear at the bottom. Press the Save button in the dialog to save the settings.
4.10.3 Gas mixture setup
Knowing the exact mixture of the shielding gas is necessary for precise gas ow measurement. The gas ow sensor unit supports ow measurement for any mixture of the six base gases, including pure base gases. The mixtures are set up by specifying the percentage of each gas in the mixture.
Recongure the mixture every time when the type of the shielding gas is changed.
The percentage of Argon is changed automatically when adjusting other gases, the total percentage being always 100 %. For example, if Carbon dioxide is increased from 0 to 18 %, Argon is changed automatically from 100 to 82 %. This applies for Ar+18CO₂ gas. If Carbon dioxide is increased to 100 %, Argon is decreased to 0 %. This applies for pure CO₂ gas, etc.
Setup panel
Go to the Main menu > System cong menu > Gas sensor menu > Gas mixture menu. Navigate through the gas parameters and adjust their percentage in the mixture by turning the control knob, according to the shielding gas in use. Press the Save button to save the changes.
Web user interface
Go to the Welding settings > Welding system > Gas sensor settings and adjust the gases by using sliders, or by clicking on the value and typing a new value. A pop-up bar with
Save and Reset changes buttons will appear at the bottom. Press the Save button in the
dialog to save the settings.

OPERATING MANUAL
6. OPERATION DISTURBANCES
Should you experience a malfunction from your machine, please consult the basic troubleshooting text above rst, and complete some basic checks.
If the machine malfunction cannot be corrected with these measures, contact your Kemppi maintenance service workshop.
Operation of the overload protection
Yellow thermal protection lamp is lit when the thermostat is operating, due to loading beyond the stated duty cycle.
The thermostat will operate, if machine is continuously loaded over rated values or cooling air circulation is blocked.
Internal fans will cool the machine, and when the pilot lamp is not lit the machine is automatically ready for welding.
Control fuses
Fuse, 6.3 A delayed, on the rear wall of the machine provides protection for auxiliary devices.
Use the same type and rating of fuse as marked beside the fuse adapter. Damage caused by incorrect fuse selection is not covered by the guarantee.
Under- and overvoltages in the mains supply
Primary circuits of the machine are protected against sudden, transient overvoltage. The machine is designed to withstand 3 x 440 V voltage continuously. Ensure that voltage is kept within this permissible limit, especially when the mains supply is provided by a combustion engine generator. If the mains have undervoltage (under approx. 300 V) or overvoltage (over approx. 480 V) machine control stops operation automatically.
Loss of a phase in the mains supply
Loss of a mains power phase causes noticeably poor welding properties. In some cases, the machine won't start at all. Loss of a phase can be due to following:
• Blowing of mains supply fuse
• Defective mains cable
• Bad connection of mains power cable on machine terminal block or plug of machine.

OPERATING MANUAL
7. MAINTENANCE
When considering and planning routine maintenance, please consider the frequency of machine use and the working environment.
Correct operation of the machine and regular maintenance will help you avoid unnecessary downtime and equipment failure.
Disconnect the machine from the mains before handling the
electrical cables.
7.1 Daily maintenance
Check the overall condition of the welding gun. Remove welding spatter from the contact tip and clean the gas nozzle. Replace worn or damaged parts. Only use original Kemppi spare parts.
Check the condition and connection of the welding circuit components: welding gun, earth return cable and clamp, sockets and connectors.
Check the condition of the feed rolls, needle bearings and shafts. Clean and lubricate bearings and shafts with a small quantity of light machine oil if necessary. Assemble, adjust and test function.
Check that the feed rolls are suitable for the ller wire you are using, and that their pressure adjustment is correct.
7.2 Periodic maintenance
Periodic maintenance should only be carried out by a suitably qualied person. Disconnect the plug of the machine from the mains socket and wait about 2 minutes (capacitor charge) before removing the cover plate.
Check at least every half year the electric connectors of the machine – clean any oxidized parts and tighten loose connections.
You must know the correct tension torques values before starting the reparation of the loose joints.
Clean the inner parts of the machine from dust and dirt e.g. with a soft brush and vacuum cleaner. Also clean the ventilation net behind the front grill.
Do not use compressed air, there is a risk that the dirt will compact even more tightly into gaps of cooling proles.
Do not use pressure washing devices.
Only an authorized trained electrician should carry out
repairs to Kemppi machines.
7.3 Service shop maintenance
Kemppi Service Workshops complete maintenance according to their Kemppi service agreement.
The major points in the maintenance procedure are listed as follows:
• Cleaning of the machine
• Checking and maintenance of the welding tools
• Checking of connectors, switches and potentiometers
• Checking of electric connections
• Checking of mains cable and plug
• Damaged parts or parts in bad condition are replaced by new ones
• Maintenance testing.
• Operation and performance values of the machine are checked, and when necessary adjusted by means of software and test equipment.
Software loading
Kemppi Service Workshops can also test and load rmware and welding software.
