2 - SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

2.1 - Introduction.
The TIG SOUND AC/DC 2540/T is a system for MMA and TIG welding, with arc starting in
both contact and high frequency mode.
It is made up of an electronic power source (art. 348), and a set of accessories to adapt to
various applications (see list in Sales Catalogue).
The power source is controlled by a microprocessor circuit, which manages the operative
functions of the welding system and operator interface.

2.2 - Technical specifications.


To verify the technical specifications, see the machine plate, Instruction Manual, and Sales
Catalogue.

2.3 - Description of power source art. 348.


Art. 348 is a voltage power source with controlled current, consisting of a three-phase rectifier
bridge, a DC/AC converter (inverter), and an additional rectifier bridge.
Furthermore, an additional DC/AC converter downstream of the second rectifier converts the
welding current back to AC.
Referring to the electrical diagram in par. 5.1, drawing 4.1 and table 4.2, we can identify the
main blocks that make up the power sources.
The main switch (9) directly powers the pre-charging board (42), which generates the 540 V
voltage to power the igbt inverter (21).
The same voltage is also applied to the flyback board (20), which acts as the main power
supply and generates all service voltages for the various power source circuits.
The inverter (21) converts the direct voltage into alternating square wave, suitable for
powering the transformer (64), which provides the secondary circuit with voltage and current
values suitable for welding.
The welding current is regulated in the inverter (21), with the modulation of the output
voltage T.off, while keeping the T.on constant. Consequently, the frequency of the voltage
applied to the transformer is variable, and more specifically ranges between 15 and 43 kHz.
Furthermore, in order to have a broader setting range for the welding current, the T.on may also
be selected from among four fixed, programmed values, automatically selected by the control
based on welding needs.
The secondary circuit of the transformer (64) has a central socket and powers the diode group
(40), which rectifies the alternating current generated by the inverter, making it available to the
next inverting stage.
The diode group (40) is made up of four diodes connected in a single-phase bridge, and
provides a dual output voltage, thus a positive and negative with regard to the central socket of
the transformer acting as a potential 0 . This configuration simplifies insertion of the next
inverting stage, present on the power source art. 348.
The central socket of the transformer, before the terminal of the power source output,
contains the choke (65) to level the welding current, and the HF transformer (26) to start the
welding arc without contact between the electrode and workpiece.
At the output of the diode group (40) is the Hall-effect current transducer (66). This sends the
current feedback signal of the secondary current to the control board (23) to regulate the welding
current.
The inverting stage, by the IGBT module (51), reverses the polarity of the power source
output voltage in AC operating mode.

3.302.038 18/10/00
CEBORA S.p.A. 6

The module (51) has two igbt in half-bridge configuration, connected so that the alternating
closure of the two makes the positive and then the negative voltage appear at the output + of
the power source, present on the output terminals of the diode group (40), also marked with +
and . These voltages obviously refer to the potential of the terminal of the power source
output, corresponding to the 0 of the central socket of the secondary circuit of the transformer.
The pre-charge board (42), controlled by the control board (23), acts:
- pre-charges the capacitors-DC on the igbt board (21);
- powers the fans (57) inside the power source.
The control board (23) contains the main power source microprocessor.
It supervises management of the other boards, more specialized in their functions, regulates
the welding current by generating the PWM signal to send to the igbt board (21), and
communicates with the control panel, which in this case is made up of intelligent modules,
equipped with microprocessors, available in two versions (art. 218 and 220, see Sales
Catalogue).
A specialization board, called the satellite board (22), is mounted on the control board (23).
Its primary role is essentially to act as an interface between control board (23), control panel, HF
board (25), and driver board (46).
The igbt board (21) represents the power inverter that powers the transformer (64); it contains
the four igbt connected in H-bridge configuration, the leveling capacitors of the voltage
provided by the pre-charge board, and the TA to detect the primary transformer current. The TA
signal is used by the control board (23) to make sure the inverter is operating correctly, and does
not affect the normal adjustment of the welding current.
The igbt board (21) also has a board mounted on it; this is the driver-igbt board, which carries
out isolated commands to drive the four igbt of the inverter.
The HF board (25), combined with the HF transformer (26), generates the high voltage and
high frequency pulses necessary to start the welding arc. Its operation depends on the presence of
AC voltage on the secondary circuit of the transformer (64), and is controlled by the satellite
board (22).
The driver board (46) drives the two IGBT contained in the module (51), based on the signals
received from the satellite board (22). It also contains a circuit to detect the voltage present on
the capacitors-AC board (49), whose signal is used by the power supply board (24) to check the
maximum voltage reached on the AC-capacitors, in AC power source mode.
The snubber board (43), mounted against the IGBT module (51), contains the RC networks to
protect the two IGBT.
The capacitors-AC board (49) contains the capacitors to recover energy from the choke (65)
while reversing the polarity of the output voltage.
The power supply board (24) is a direct current power source that charges the capacitors on
the capacitors-AC board (49), to ensure sufficient voltage and energy to maintain the stability of
the pilot arc in both half-waves.
Its operation is driven by the control board (23), through the driver board (46), and controlled
via the circuit provided on the driver board (46).
The resistors present in modules (55) and (56) serve to limit peak currents circulating in the
AC capacitors.
The temperature sensor (48) is mounted on the dissipater of the module (51); its signal
reaches the control board (23) for analysis via the driver (46) and satellite (22) boards.
The connector board (32) is located in proximity of the output terminals, and acts as a power
source input/output and output voltage signal conditioning interface. The board also contains the
control circuit of the gas solenoid valve (28), necessary for TIG welding.

CEBORA S.p.A. 7

The following signals are available to the power source connector:


Start power source (torch button).
Welding current external adjustment (potentiometer).
Interface signal from cooling unit.
arc lit signal output.
All of these signals are exchanged with the control board (23) via the I2Cbus
communication system.
The signals processed by the electronic boards and present at their connectors are listed in the
table in chapter five of this manual.

3.4.2 - 002 - Hardware lockup.
Power source lockup due to software error. Replace control board (23).

3.4.3 - 020 - No interlock signal.


Power source blocked due to missing interlock signal, caused by connector J11 control board
(23) or J10 igbt board (21) disconnected (the same connectors as the current feedback signal at
the primary circuit of the transformer (64).
See : TRANSFORMER (64) PRIMARY CIRCUIT CURRENT TEST, par. 3.3.7.

3.4.4 - 025 - Malfunction on the EPLD bus in the control board (23).
This code calls up various problems that may occur in controlling the igbt inverter (21). These
are generally those defects that cause excessive current at the primary circuit of the transformer
(64), due for example to a short-circuit at the output of the igbt board (21) or in the diode group
(40).
For an analysis of the problem, see open circuit operation par. 3.3.8 and operation on
resistive load par. 3.3.9.
In case of Error 25 in MMA mode, the Process selection may be blocked in MMA. To
exit this situation, you must shut off the power source, press the Process button (A) (fig. 3.2.3),
restart the power source while holding down the button (A), and release the button as soon as the
process selection switches to TIG.

Check the conditions of the power source power supply mains (see par. 3.3.1).
Replace flyback board (20).
Replace control board (23).

3.4.7 - 052 - Start button pressed during start-up.


See : START COMMAND TEST par. 3.3.4.

3.4.8 - 053 - Start button pressed during reset from stop due to overtemperature.
The high temperature alarm stops the power source, and the led (AM) on control panel (fig.
3.2.3) lights, but it does not remain in memory. It is automatically reset when the temperature
falls within the allowed limits.
It may occur that the unit resets when the start command is present; therefore, to prevent the
power source from starting suddenly due to a random reset, this situation is detected and causes a
memory block in the power source, with Error 53 indicated.
To reset this situation, shut off the power source, remove the start command and restart the
power source. See par. 3.3.4.

3.4.9 - 054 - Power source output voltage greater than 48 Vac.


For safety reasons, the power source is blocked if the output voltage exceeds 48 Vac during
welding.
In AC open circuit operation, in both TIG and MMA, the power source has an output voltage
of approximately 57 Vdc.
Alternating voltage, as well as operation of the power supply board (24), depend on the
presence of current at the power source output; the hazardous AC voltage control at the power
source output is activated when welding current ceases, to make sure that any breakdown in the
control circuits continues generating alternating voltage with the power source in open-circuit.
This block is indicated when the code 054 appears on the display (Y) and the LED (AO) shuts
off (fig. 3.2.3) on control panel.
