1.2Product introduction
Kemppi Master MLS™ 2500 and 3500 is a MMA welding machine designed for industrial use and for welding all kinds of covered electrodes, including difficult-to-weld types such as cellulose electrodes. The equipment consists of power source, welding cables and function panel.
Kemppi Mastertig MLS™ 3000 and 4000 is a TIG welding system especially designed for industrial use and for welding e.g. stainless steel materials. The equipment consists of a power source, function panel, TIG welding torch, ground cable and an optional cooling unit. The cooling unit MasterCool 10 is used in water-cooled TIG welding.
The power source is a multifunctional machine for demanding professional use for MMA, TIG and pulsed TIG welding with direct current. The power source is controlled with IGBT transistors with a frequency of approximately 20 kHz, and the operational functions with a microprocessor. The welding torch can be either water-cooled or gas-cooled.

2.5Installation 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 fixing 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,
continue gently pushing the upper part of the panel until it clips into place. Finally, push the fixing pin back into its place.
2.6Distribution 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.
Master MLS™ 2500, MasterTig MLS™ 3000
This equipment complies with IEC 61000-3-12 provided that the short-circuit power Ssc is greater than or equal to 1.6 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 1.6 MVA.
Master MLS™ 3500, MasterTig MLS™ 4000
This equipment complies with IEC 61000-3-12 provided that the short-circuit power Ssc is greater than or equal to 2.5 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 2.5 MVA.
2.7Mains connection
NOTE! Only an authorised electrician is allowed to install mains cable and plug!
The power source is equipped with a 5-meter mains cable without plug. The fuse and cable sizes are given in the Technical data at the end of this manual.
NOTE! This equipment’s electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is designed for use in an industrial environment. Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential location where the electrical power is provided by the public low-voltage supply system.

2.8Welding cable connections
2.8.1 Choosing welding polarity in MMA welding
You can change the welding polarity by choosing (+) or (-) cable connector.
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 firmly.
2.9Cooling unit to MasterCool 10
NOTE! Cooling liquid is injurious! Avoid also contact with skin or eyes. In case of injury, seek for medical advice.
Cooling unit MasterCool 10 together with TIG torch of Kemppi’s 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 etanol and water, or with any other suitable antifreeze. The capacity of the reservoir is 3 litres.
