INPUT LINE VOLTAGE, MAIN TRANSFORMER, VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH AND BAFFLE MOUNTED DIODE BRIDGE

The single phase input power is connected to the POWER MIG® 215 through a line switch located on the front panel.

A reconnect panel allows the user to configure the machine for the desired input voltage. The AC input voltage is applied to the primary of the main transformer. The cooling fan motor (120VAC) is powered from a portion of the primary winding. For welding purposes, the main transformer converts the high voltage, low current input power to a low voltage, high current output. This tapped secondary winding is coupled to a voltage selector switch. By selecting one of seven positions on the switch the user can preset the desired voltage output

from a minimum setting (A) to a maximum voltage setting (G). In addition, the main transformer also has a 28VAC winding. This 28VAC is rectified at the baffle mounted diode bridge. The resultant DC voltage (approx. 35VDC) is used to power the electronics on the control board.

NOTE: Unshaded areas of block logic diagrams are the subject of discussion.
