In this video we present our professional combi TIG welding machines with plasma cutting function.
Before we look at the scope of delivery and commissioning, we will first
discuss the differences between the devices. Both devices in this series have high-frequency ignition
with 200 amperes in TIG mode and 170 amps in MMA mode.
The plasma cutting function is equipped with a contact ignition and a 50A power. This means that cuts of up to 12 mm in structural steel can be achieved.
The Berlin 2400 is the DC combination welding machine. A large number of welding work can be carried out with this.
With the New York 2500, all weldable metals, including aluminum, can be processed thanks to the AC function.
The jobs you have set can be saved in 9 storage locations and can be called up at any time.
The scope of delivery includes: a TIG welding torch WP 17, 4 m long, with 9 mm mandrel,
5-pole control line and a shielded gas quick coupling. A grounding clamp 3 m long,
with 16 mm² cable diameter and 9 mm mandrel.
An electrode holder 3 m long, with 16 mm² cable diameter and 9 mm mandrel.
A shielding gas hose with two screw clamps.
A comprehensive accessory package, each consisting of a gas nozzle of size 4 to 7.
A short and long torch cap and two clamping sleeves with housing
in sizes of 1.6 and 2.4 mm, as well as device-specific operating instructions in German and English.
For the plasma function you also get a PT 31
plasma torch 4 m long with a 9 mm mandrel and 5-pole control line
and compressed air quick coupling. A pressure reducer with water separator, compressed air manometer,
compressed air hose connectors , a suitable holder
for mounting on the back of the device and Teflon tape.
To assemble the pressure reducer you need an 11 mm and 14 mm open-end wrench.
The inlet and outlet for the compressed air hose connectors are located on the sides.
Remove the protective caps from the pressure reducer and wrap the connector with Teflon tape.
Tighten the connector hand-tight with the spanner.
Repeat the process on the other side.
The compressed air monometer is also wrapped in Teflon tape and hand-tightened.
Connect the short piece of compressed air hose to the outlet on the pressure reducer and the long
piece to the inlet on the pressure reducer.
To assemble the air pressure reducer, first remove the nuts with washers and screw them back onto the device with the holder.
The pressure reducer is then pushed into the holder from below and screwed tight.
Now connect the short end of the compressed air hose
to the device and the long piece to your compressor.
For this you may need a quick coupling, which is not included in the scope of delivery.
Before using for the first time, check your plasma torch.
To do this, unscrew the ceramic cap. Remove the contact tip, the swirl ring and
the electrode. If one side of the electrode is worn out, turn it over once and continue
using it from the other side. The assembly is done in reverse order.
Tighten the ceramic cap hand-tight.
In order to put the plasma torch or TIG torch into operation, first connect the hose package.
Pay attention to the guide lug on the control line and screw it on hand-tight.
With the quick release connector, make sure that it audibly clicks into place.
The torch is connected to the negative welding power connection. The grounding clamp comes to the positive welding current connection.
Now let's take a look at the control panel of the New York 2500:
If you are in TIG mode, switch on the pulse function at the bottom right. The set welding current is shown on the display.
Further settings can now be made using the setting button.
The base current from 10 to 100 amps.
The pulse duration from 10 to 90%.
The pulse frequency from 1 to 200 Hz.
The current reduction from 0.1 to 10 seconds The final
current from 10 to 200 amperes
The gas follow-up time from 0.1 to 10 seconds
In AC mode: The balance from 10 to 30%
The AC frequency from 50 up to 200 Hz
The gas lead time from 0.1 to 5 seconds.
The starting current from 10 to 200 amps.
The current increase from 0.1 to 10 seconds.
In order to take the plasma cutter into operation, first connect the hose
package. Use the selection button to switch to the plasma function. The
set cutting current is shown on the display. The adjustment range is 20 to 50 amps.
By pressing the setting button you can also set the gas follow-up time
so that the torch is sufficiently cooled after the cutting process.
We recommend setting a gas follow-up time of at least 5 seconds.
For electrode welding, the TIG welding torch is exchanged for the electrode holder.
Clamp the electrode holder to the negative welding current connection and the grounding clamp to the positive welding current connection.
Switch from TIG mode to MMA mode. The welding current can be adjusted from 10 to 170 amps using the setting button.
By pressing the setting button, you get to the submenu to make further settings.
Hotstart strength in amps. From 1 to 10, always in steps of ten. That means 1 equals 10 amps, 5 equals 50 amps.
These are always added to the welding current that has already been set.
Hotstart time in seconds: from 1 to 10 seconds. Sets the duration of the hot start in order to ignite the electrode optimally.
Arc Force adjustment range from 1 to 100 amps. The amps specified here are added to the welding current so that the electrodes do not stick.
Important: the set welding current and ArcForce can together provide 170 amperes.
If the welding current is already set at 170 A, the Arc Force no longer has any additional function,
as the maximum power is already made available.
