COURSE OF ACTION

 

 

 

 

Display shows any of the following:

 

 

 

 

 

Err 34

Capacitor "A" under voltage

Excess voltage on the main capaci-

tors. May be caused by improper

 

 

input configuration.

 

 

When accompanied by an undervolt-

Err 35

 

age error on the same side, it indi-

 

 

cates no capacitor voltage present

 

 

on that side, and is usually the result

 

Capacitor "B" under voltage

of an open or short in the primary

 

(Right side facing machine)

side of the machine.

 

 

 

Err 36

Thermal error

Indicates over temperature. Usually

 

 

accompanied by Thermal LED.

 

 

Check fan operation. Be sure

 

 

process does not exceed duty cycle

 

 

limit of the machine.

 

 

 

Err 37

Softstart error

Capacitor precharge failed. Usually

 

 

accompanied by codes 32-35.

 

 

 

Err 41

Secondary overcurrent error

The secondary (weld) current limit

 

 

has been exceeded. When this

 

 

occurs the machine output will phase

 

 

back to 100 amps, typically resulting

 

 

in a condition referred to as "noodle

 

 

welding"

 

 

NOTE: For the Power Wave 455/R

 

 

the secondary limit is 570 amps for

 

 

the standard stud, and 325 amps for

 

 

the STT stud and all single phase

 

 

operation.

 

 

 

Err 43

Capacitor delta error

The maximum voltage difference

 

 

between the main capacitors has

 

 

been exceeded. May be accompa-

 

 

nied by errors 32-35.

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION

If for any reason you do not understand the test procedures or are unable to perform the tests/repairs safely, contact your Local Lincoln Authorized Field Service Facility for technical troubleshooting assistance before you proceed.
