Safety Precautions
A. Arc Welding
 
Arc Welding can be hazardous. Protect
yourself and others from possible serious
injury or death. Keep children away.
Pacemaker wearers keep away until
consulting your doctor.
In welding, as in most jobs, exposure to
certain hazards occurs. Welding is safe when
precautions are taken. The safety information
given below is only a summary of the more
complete safety information that will be found
in the Safety Standards listed at the end of
this section, Read and follow all Safety
Standards.
Have all installation, operation, maintenance
and repair work performed only by qualified
people.
B. Electric Shock
‘Touching live electrical parts ean cause fatal
shocks or severe burns. The electrode and
work circuit is electrically live whenever the
output is on. The input power circuit and
machine internal circuits are also live when
power is on, When using mechanized wire
feed, the wire, wire reel, drive roll housing
and all metal parts touching the welding wire
are electrically live. Incorrectly installed or
improperly grounded equipment is a hazard,
1. Do not touch live electrical parts.
10.
 
Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves
and appropriate body protection.
Disconnect input power before installing
or servicing this equipment.
Lockout/tagout input power according to
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety
Standards).
Properly install and ground this
equipment according to the operation
manual and national, state and local
codes,
Always verify the supply ground-check
and be sure that input power cord
ground wire is properly connected to
ground terminal in disconnect box or
that cord plug is connected to a properly
grounded receptacle outlet.
When making input connections, attach
proper grounding conductor first -
double-check connections.
Frequently inspect input power cord for
damage or bare wiring. Replace cord
immediately if damaged - bare wiring
can kill.
Turn off all equipment when not in use.
If earth grounding of the workpiece is
required, ground it directly with a
separate cable - do not use work clamp
or work cable.
Do not touch electrode if you are in
contact with the work, ground, or
another electrode from a different
machine.ALC-201 Are Length Control
11, Use only well-maintained equipment.
Repair or replace damaged parts at
once. Maintain unit according to
manual.
12. Wear a safety harness if working above
floor level.
13. Keep all panels and covers securely in
place.
14. Clamp work cable with good metal-to-
metal contact to workpiece or worktable
as near the weld as practical.
Cc. Arc Rays
Arc rays can burn eyes and skin; noise can
damage hearing; flying slag or sparks can
injure eyes.
Are rays from the welding process produce
intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet and
infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin.
Noise from some processes can damage
hearing. Chipping, grinding and weld cooling
throw off pieces of metal or slag.
1. Use approved ear plugs or ear mufis if
noise level is high.
2 Use a welding helmet fitted with a
proper shade of filter to protect your
face and eyes when welding or
watching.
3. Wear approved safety glasses with side
shields.
4. Use protective screens or barriers to
protect others from flash and glare;
warn others not to watch the arc.
5. Wear protective clothing made from
durable, flame-resistant material (wool
and leather) and foot protection where
necessary.
D. Fumes and Gases
Fumes and gases can be hazardous to your
health.
Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing
these fumes and gases can be hazardous to
your health,
1. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not
breathe the fumes.
2. If inside, ventilate the area and/or use
exhaust at the are to remove welding
fomes and gases.
3, If ventilation is poor, use an approved
air-supplied respirator.
4, Read the Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDSs) and the manufacturer's
instruction for metals, consumables,
coatings, cleaners, and degreasers.
5. Work in a confined space only if it is
well ventilated, or while wearing an air-
supplied respirator. Always have a
trained watch person nearby,
6 Do not weld in locations near
degreasing, cleaning, or spraying
operations. The heat and rays of the are
can react with vapors to form highly
toxic and irritating gases.
7. Do not weld on coated metals, such as
galvanized, lead or cadmium plated
steel, unless the coating is removed
from the weld area, the area is well
ventilated, and if necessary, while
woaring an air-supplied respirator. The
coatings and any metals containing
these elements can give off toxic fumes
if welded.E. Cylinders
Cylinders can explode if damaged.
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under
high pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can
explode. Since gas cylinders are normally part,
of the welding process, be sure to treat them
carefully.
1. Protect compressed gas cylinders from
excessive heat, mechanical shocks, slag,
open flames, sparks, and ares.
2 Install eylinders in an upright position
by securing to a stationary support or
cylinder rack to prevent falling or
tipping.
3. Keep cylinders away from any welding
or other electrical circuits.
4. Never weld on a pressurized cylinder -
explosion will result.
5. Use only correct shielding gas cylinders,
regulators, hoses and fittings designed
for the specific application; maintain
them and associated parts in good
condition.
6. Turn face away from valve outlet when
opening cylinder valve.
7. Keep protective cap in place over valve
except when cylinder is in use or
connected for use.
8 Read’ and follow instructions on
compressed gas cylinders, associated
equipment, and CGA publication P-1
listed in Safety Standards.
ALC-201 Arc Length Control
F. Welding
Welding can cause fire or explosion.
Welding on closed containers, such as tanks,
drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up.
Sparks can fly off from the welding arc. The
flying sparks, hot workpiece, and hot
equipment can cause fires and burns.
Accidental contact of electrode to metal
objects can cause sparks, explosion,
overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the
area is safe before doing any welding.
1. Protect yourself and others from flying
sparks and hot metal.
2. Do not weld where flying sparks can
strike flammable material.
3. Remove all flammables within 35 ft
(10.7 m) of the welding are. If this is not
possible, tightly cover them with
approved covers.
4, Be alert that welding sparks and hot
materials from welding can easily go
through small cracks and openings to
adjacent areas.
5. Watch for fire, and keep a fire
extinguisher nearby.
6. Do not weld on closed containers such
as tanks, drums, or pipes, unless they
are properly prepared according to
AWSF4.1 (see safety Standards).
7. Connect work cable to the work as close
to the welding area as practical to
prevent welding current travelling long,
possibly unknown paths and causing
electric shock and fire hazards.
8 Wear oil-free protective garments such
as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless
trousers, high shoes, and a cap.ALC-201 Arc Length Control
G. Moving Parts
Moving parts, such as fans, rotors, and belts
can cut fingers and hands and catch loose
clothing.
1. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and
guards closed and securely in place.
2 Have only qualified people remove
guards or covers for maintenance and
troubleshooting as necessary.
H. EMF Information
Considerations About Welding and the
Effects of Low Frequency Electric and
Magnetic Fields
‘The following is a quotation from the General
Conclusions Section of the U.S. Congress,
Office of Technology Assessment, Biological
Effects of Power Frequency Flectric &
Magnetic Fields - Background Paper, OTA-
BP-E.53 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government
Printing Office, May 1989):
there is now a very large volume of
scientific findings based on experiments at
the cellular level and from studies with
animals and people which clearly establish
that low frequency magnetic fields can
interact with, and produce changes in,
biological systems. While most of this work is
of very high quality, the results are complex.
Current scientific understanding does not yet
allow us to interpret the evidence in a single
coherent framework, Even more frustrating,
it does not yet allow us to draw definite
conclusions abut questions of possible risk or
to offer clear seience-based advice on
strategies to minimize or avoid potential
risks."
 
To reduce magnetic fields in the work place,
use the following procedures:
1. Keep cables close together by twisting
or taping them.
2. Arrange cables to one side and away
from the operator.
3. Do not coil or drape cables around the
body.
4. Keep welding power source and cables
as far away as practical.
5. Connect work clamp to workpiece as
close to the weld as possible.

‘The above procedures are among those also
normally recommended for pacemaker
wearers. Consult your doctor for complete
information.

Section Ill.
Operator Instructions
 
A. Introduction
‘The main purpose of the arc length control
(ALC) is to automatically maintain a con-
stant are gap for variations in the workpiece
seam, due to fit-up or fixturing.
‘When the ALC is properly connected to a
constant current power source the following
sequence of operation will occur.
B. Sequence of Operation
Step1
Ensure that the "Auto/Manual" switch is in
the Manual position; the operator manually
drives the actuator down. The tungsten will
touch the workpiece and retract a distance set
‘on the front panel touch retract control.
‘Step 2
Turn on the power supply. When an arc is
established this will be indicated by the
voltage lamps switching from set (red) to
actual (green); the meter will display the are
voltage between the tungsten and the work-
piece.
 
When the "In Range Are Voltage” is sensed
the start delay timer begins timing. The start
delay timer will time out and the drive mode
lamps will switch from "Manual" (red) to
"Auto" (green). The "voltage set” control may
be adjusted, to set the arc length,
Turning the "voltage set" clockwise will cause
a longer are and the meter reading will in-
crease,
Step 3
At the completion of the normal weld, turn off
the power supply.
Step 4
When the arc is extinguished, the torch will
retract a distance set by the front panel "stop
retract" control.
C. Function of Controls
1) Power "On/Off" switch
Closing this switch will energize the unit.
Wait 10 seconds before setting are gap.
2) "Power" light - green
‘This light should light when "On/Off" switch,
is closed. This light is powered by the posi-
tive 12 volt power supply and so is an indica-
tion that the low voltage supply is working.
8) Drive mode lights - one red, one green
‘The red light indicates the servo is in the
‘Manual mode. It should be on any time you
are not welding, any time the "Auto/Manual”
switch is in the "Manual" position, anytime
the "start delay" timer is timing out, and
anytime the unit is "Locked-out" from an
outside signal. The green light indicates the
servo is in the Auto mode. It should be on
during the normal welding process and off
anytime the Manual mode light is on.
 
‘When properly interfaced to a pulsing power
supply, these lights will switch between green
and red, Red during low pulse.
erg4) Voltage lights - one red, one green
‘The red light indicates there is no are and
that the reference voltage (the setting by
which you predetermine the arc length) may
be "set" or adjusted by the "voltage set" con-
trol. This "set" voltage is read on the digital
voltmeter as long as this light is on. The
green light indicates a welding arc. ‘The
voltmeter now indicates the “actual” are
voltage. When this light comes on, it will
start the “start delay" timer. This light
should be off anytime "set" light is on.
5) "Touch Retract"
‘At the beginning of each weld pass, after
securing workpiece to fixture, it will be neces-
sary to position the toreh electrode the proper
distance from the workpiece to enable the arc
to start. By operating the Manual down
switch until the electrode comes into contact
with the workpiece, the ALC will sense the
contact and the drive will reverse itself for a
period of time dictated by the "touch retract”
timer setting. The starting arc gap distance
is a function of both jog speed (PC board
adjustment) and the touch retract setting.
As long as these adjustments are not moved,
the starting are gap will be consistent from
weld to weld.
 
6) "Voltage Set"
‘When the voltage light indicates “set (red),
the control will adjust the voltage level to
that which the servo will maintain after the
welding process is started. The "voltage set"
control can be adjusted (during the welding
process) to any desired arc length or voltage
(as read on the voltmeter).
7) "Auto/Manual switch"
‘Switching the "Auto/Manual" switch to Manu-
al during the welding cycle will disable the
Auto drive servo. Anytime this switch is in
the "Manual! position, the Manual drive mode
light should be "On".
ALC-201 Arc Length Control
8) "Voltmeter"
‘The digital voltmeter constantly monitors
either the set reference voltage (when voltage
Tight indicates "set" - red) when not welding,
or the actual arc voltage (when voltage light
indicates "actual" - green) when an actual
welding arc is established.
9) "Start delay"
‘Whon the welding arc is initiated, it some-
times takes a short time for the arc to stabi-
ize. If the ALC control is in "Auto" during
this time, the torch will follow the voltage
variations from the unstabilized arc causing
the arc to become even more erratic. In a
short period of time, the ALC will either drive
the torch into the work or it will trip the burn
through detector. During this time, it is
desirable to keep the drive disabled until the
arc is stable, The "start delay" timer will
"lockout" the drive for a period of time indi-
cated by the start delay setting. This timer is
"0" to approximately "10" seconds. The start
delay timer must be set longer than pre-flow
plus initial current plus upslope.
10) "Sensitivity"
‘The "sensitivity" controls how fast the ALC
drive will respond to an arc voltage fluctua-
tion or change. Turning this control clockwise
will. increase sensitivity and turning the
control counterclockwise will decrease sensi-
tivity.
11) "Stop Retract"
 
When the welding process is stopped, it is
usually desirable to retract the torch for
clearance while removing the workpiece. The
drive will automatically retract upon loss of
welding arc for the period of time set on the
“stop retract” timer. Like "touch retract", the
distance traveled is a function of both jog
speed and "stop retract” time.
aesALC-201 Arc Length Control
12) Overload Protection
‘The fuse on the front panel is the overload
protection for the entire control and is rated
at 1 amp, 260 vac fast blow.
18) Detector Armed Light
This lamp will come on any time K3 is ener-
gized and the "Auto/Manual” switch is in the
‘Auto position indicating the burn through
detection circuit has been enabled.
14) Manual Up/Down
‘The Manual up/down switch enables the
operator to position the torch to workpiece.
Maintaining the front panel Manual down
will get the are gap distance. This switch is
active only when the drive mode lamp is in
Manual (red).
When the drive mode lamp is in Auto, Manu-
al up will turn "off" the detector armed lamp
(K3) and the burn through detection circuit.
The actuator Manual up/down will not turn
on or off the welding power supply.
D. Initial Set-Up Procedure
1) Set the "touch retract" and the “stop re-
tract timer to zero",
2) Set the power on/off switch to "on",
8) Check for the green "Power" light.
b) Check for the red "Manual" light.
ight.
the Manual up/down switch, check
for proper the operation of the drive.
 
) Check for the red voltage "Set"
d)
 
e) Set the "Auto/Manual" switch to "Auto".
3) Run the torch down contacting the work-
piece. The torch should touch the work and
stop even if the Manual down switch is left in
the down position,
4) Turn the “touch retract" control up a little
and push the up/down switch to the down
position. ‘The torch should push against the
workpiece and retract a short distance.
Repeat stop 4 until the proper are starting
gap is obtained (.030 or .040" will usually get
you started).
5) Adjust the "Voltage Set” control until the
voltmeter reads the desired arc voltage. If
the voltage has not been previously deter-
mined, try 11 to 12 volts for the initial test
setup.
6) Sot the "Start Delay" timer to % turn
clockwise (this should give about 5 or 6 see-
onds of start delay).
7) Set "Sensitivity" control 2 divisions short
of full clockwise.
8) Set the "Stop Retraet” control % turn
clockwise.
9) Turn on the welding power supply, inert
gas, water, etc.
10) Set the current control on the power sup-
ply to a level that will not burn a hole in the
workpiece, if left stationary for a minute or
so. Set the power supply to DC, straight
polarity.
11) Start the power supply.
12) What you should see:
 
a) As the arc strikes the workpiece, you
should see the voltage lights switch from red
("Set") to green ("Actual"). As this happens,
the ALC "Start Delay” timer will begin timing
out. The voltage you read on the voltmeter
will, at this point, indicate the actual arc
voltage as set by the touch retract timer
(starting arc gap).
fore eeb) After about 5 seconds, the "Start Delay"
timer will time out. At this point, the drive
mode lights will switch from red (Manual) to
green (Auto). If there is any difference be-
tween the voltage that was indicated on the
meter during start delay (initial starting are
gap voltage) and the voltage you set prior to
arc initiation, the drive will now respond and
position the torch until the “set” voltage is,
‘obtained. The speed of the drive response is,
determined by the "sensitivity" control. The
sensitivity control should be turned up until
the desired effect is achieved and no further.
If turned up too far, the drive may oscillate
up and down under certain circumstances.
Unnecessary drive action means unnecessary
wear.
©) You may now adjust the "voltage set"
control and power supply current. control to
obtain the desired arc length/heat. Once this
is done, filler may be fed into the weld pud-
dio, if it is used in the process. Next, try
workpiece to torch tracking along the weld
joint or face of a scrap plate.
ALC-201 Arc Length Control
d) Turn off the travel control, then the wire
feed control. Next turn off the welding power
source. At the loss of arc, the drive mode
lights should switch from green (Auto) to red
(Manual). Also the voltage lights should
switch from green (actual) to red (set) and the
drive should retract the torch away from the
workpiece, a distance determined by the "stop
retract” timer setting.
e) The final settings will have to be deter-
mined by experimentation and/or calculation,
depending on your particular requirements.
