SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read this entire installation section before you start installation.
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
•Only qualified personnel should per- form this installation.
• Turn the input power OFF at the dis- connect switch or fuse box before working on this equipment. Turn off the input power to any other equip- ment connected to the welding sys- tem at the disconnect switch or fuse box before working on the equip- ment.
•Do not touch electrically hot parts.
•Always connect the POWER WAVE® grounding lug (located inside the reconnect input access
door) to a proper safety (Earth) ground.
LOCATION AND MOUNTING
The POWER WAVE® i400 case is designed to sup- port the Fanuc R30iA controller and op box (up to 300lbs), matching the controllerʼs footprint and styling. Mounting is externally accessible for simplified inte- gration. The flexibility of the POWER WAVE® i400 also allows it to be operated as a stand alone unit. In either case, bolting the unit to the floor or a suitable platform is recommended to provide maximum stabili- ty.The minimum recommended clearance for chassis removal is 26” (66cm) from the rear of the machine as viewed from the output studs. See the Chassis Removal Procedure for additional information.
CAUTION
•DO NOT MOUNT OVER COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES. Where there is a combustible surface directly under stationary or fixed electrical equipment, that surface shall be covered with a steel plate at least .06”(1.6mm) thick, which shall extend not
less than 5.90”(150mm) beyond the equipment on all sides.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
The POWER WAVE® i400 will operate in harsh envi- ronments. Even so, it is important that simple preven- tative measures are followed in order to assure long life and reliable operation.
•The POWER WAVE® i400 must be located where there is free circulation of clean air such that air movement in the louvered sections of the machine will not be restricted.
•Dirt and dust that can be drawn into the POWER WAVE® i400 should be kept to a minimum. The use of air filters on the air intake is not recommend- ed because normal air flow may be restricted. Failure to observe these precautions can result in excessive operating temperatures and nuisance shutdown.
•Do not use the POWER WAVE® i400 in an outdoor environment. The power source should not be sub- jected to falling water, nor should any parts of it be submerged in water. Doing so may cause improper operation as well as pose a safety hazard. The best practice is to keep the machine in a dry, shel- tered area.
