1.2 INTRODUCTION
Kemppi Mastertig MLS ACDC is a family of TIG welding machines designed for industrial use, with characteristics especially suitable for welding materials like aluminium and stainless steel. The equipment consists of power source, function panel and welding torch. The cooling unit Mastercool 30 is used in water-cooled TIG welding. The welding torch can be either water­cooled or gas-cooled.
Multipurpose power sources Mastertig MLS™ 3000 and 3003 ACDC of 300 A maximum current is designed for demanding professional welding, suitable for electrode, TIG and pulsed TIG welding with both direct and alternating current. The power source is controlled with IGBT transistors with a frequency of approximately 30 kHz, and the operational functions with a microprocessor.
Mastertig MLS 3000 ACDC is connected to a 400-V three-phase network. Mastertig MLS 3003 ACDC is a multi-voltage power source that operates steplessly in the three-phase range 230–460 V.
Mastertig MLS 3000 ACDC VRD is equipped with so called Voltage Reduction Device (VRD) function to avoid danger of electric shock. VRD maintains open circuit voltage under 35 V.

2. INSTALLATION
2.1 REMOVAL FROM PACKAGING
The equipment is packed in durable packages designed especially for it. However, it is necessary to check the equipment before using it to make sure that the equipment or any part of it has not got damaged during transportation. Also check that the delivery corresponds to your order and that you have received all necessary instructions for installing and operating the equipment. The packaging material is recyclable.
2.2 LOCATING THE MACHINE
Place the machine on a horizontal, stable and clean ground. Protect the machine from rain and direct sunshine. Check that there is enough space for cooling air circulation in front of and behind the machine.
2.3 SERIAL NUMBER
Serial number of the machine is marked on the rating plate. The serial number is the only proper means of identifying parts for a specic product. It is important to make correct reference to the serial number of the product when making repairs or ordering spare parts.

2.5 INSTALLATION OF THE PANEL
1. Fasten the cable connectors of the function panel to the power source (2 pieces).
2. Place the bottom edge of the panel behind the securing clips on the machine. Remove the xing pin from the top edge with, for example, a screwdriver. Then gently push the upper part of the panel into place. Make sure that the cables do not get damaged,

2.6 MAINS CONNECTION
NOTE! Only an authorised electrician is allowed to install mains cable and plug!
The machine is equipped with a ve-metre power cord. Only an authorised electrician is allowed to install the plug. The fuse and cable sizes are given in the Technical data at the end of this manual.
2.7 DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
All regular electrical devices without special circuits generate harmonic currents into distribution network. High rates of harmonic current may cause losses and disturbance to some equipment.
MasterTig MLS 3000 ACDC
WARNING: This equipment does not comply with IEC 61000-3-12. If it is connected to a public low voltage system, it is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation with the distribution network operator if necessary, that the equipment may be connected.
MasterTig MLS 3003 ACDC
This equipment complies with IEC 61000-3-12 provided that the short-circuit power Ssc is greater than or equal to 1.2 MVA at the interface point between the user’s supply and the public supply network. It is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation with the distribution network operator if necessary, that the equipment is connected only to a supply with a short-circuit power Ssc greater than or equal to 1.2 MVA.

2.8 WELDING CABLE CONNECTIONS
The welding cables must be made of at least 25 mm² copper cable.
2.8.1 Choosing welding polarity in MMA welding
You can select the polarity electronically from the control panel, i.e. you do not have to switch the places of the (+) and (-) connectors.
NOTE! Connect always the negative connector to the work piece.
2.8.2 Earthing
If possible, always fasten the earth clamp of return current cable directly onto work piece.
1. Clean contact surface of earth clamp from paint and rust.
2. Fasten clamp properly, so that contact surface is as large as possible.
3. Check that clamp is fastened rmly.
2.9 COOLING UNIT TO MASTERCOOL 30
NOTE! Cooling liquid is injurious! Avoid also contact with skin or eyes. In case of injury, seek for
medical advice.
Cooling unit Mastercool 30 together with TIG torch Kemppi TTC-W range enables TIG welding with water-cooled torch.
The cooling unit is installed beneath the power source with screws. Electrical connections are on the bottom of power source. Fill the reservoir with a 20 – 40 % mixture of glycol and water, or with any other suitable antifreeze. The capacity of the reservoir is 3 litres.
