(4)
plate contains the manufacturer's symbol
and the place of origin, together with the
type (model), article number and serial
number of the power source. The symbol
for the functional principle of the power
source, and the Standards with reference
to which it was developed, produced and
(5)
given final inspection & testing, are also
shown here.
The "Weld-process data" section gives
(4)
information on the weld process for which
the power source is intended (here = rod-
electrode welding and TIG welding with
contact ignition).
This section also states the welding-
(5)
amperage range, the maximum
permissible welding amperage (for the
respective duty cycle) and the respective
output voltages.
