TRANSTIG 170Pi 2.05 Description 2.07 Transporting Methods The Cigweld Transtig 170Pi is a self contained single phase multi process welding inverter that is capable of performing MMAW (Stick) and GTAW (HF and Lift TIG) welding processes. The unit is equipped with an integrated voltage reduction device (VRD applicable in stick mode only), digital amperage/voltage meter, and a host of other features in order to fully satisfy the broad operating needs of the modern welding professional.
TRANSTIG 170Pi 2.09 Duty Cycle The rated duty cycle of a Welding Power Source, is a statement of the time it may be operated at its rated welding current output without exceeding the temperature limits of the insulation of the component parts. To explain the 10 minute duty cycle period the following example is used. Suppose a Welding Power Source is designed to operate at a 30% duty cycle, 170 amperes at 26.8 volts. This means that it has been designed and built to provide the rated amperage (170A) for 3.

TRANSTIG 170Pi NOTE 4 Minimum Generator Recommendation at the Maximum Output Duty Cycle. Due to large variations in performance and specifications of different brands and types of generators, Cigweld cannot guarantee full welding output power or duty cycle on every brand or type of generator. Some small generators incorporate low cost circuit breakers on their outputs. These circuit breakers usually will have a small reset button, and will trip much faster than a switchboard type circuit breaker.
TRANSTIG 170Pi SECTION 3: INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SETUP 3.01 Environment These units are designed for use in environments with increased hazard of electric shock as outlined in AS 60974.1 and AS 1674.2. A. Examples of environments with increased hazard of electric shock are: 1. In locations in which freedom of movement is restricted, so that the operator is forced to perform the work in a cramped (kneeling, sitting or lying) position with physical contact with conductive parts. 2.
TRANSTIG 170Pi C. Methods of Reducing Electromagnetic Emissions action may be as simple as earthing the welding circuit, see NOTE below. In other cases it could involve constructing an electromagnetic screen enclosing the Welding Power Source and the work, complete with associated input filters. In all cases, electromagnetic disturbances shall be reduced to the point where they are no longer troublesome. 1.
TRANSTIG 170Pi bonding the workpiece to earth may reduce emissions in some, but not all instances. Care should be taken to prevent the earthing of the workpiece increasing the risk of injury to users, or damage to other electrical equipment.
TRANSTIG 170Pi The display will also show error code E-1 if the “Fail to Safe” protection has operated. A-11690 2. Digital Meter (Amps and Volts) The digital meter is used to display the pre-set parameter values (when not welding) and actual output current or voltage (when welding) of the power source. A long press (>2s) on the Multi Function Control toggles between the display of amps and volts.
TRANSTIG 170Pi A-11647 Figure 3-3: Programming Mode STICK Programming Mode Programming Parameter Control Panel Display Hot Start This para me te r operates in STICK mode to improve the start characteristics for stick electrodes HOT START current is on top of the BASE current. e.g. HOT START current = 130 amps when BASE (WELD) = 100 amps & HOT START = 30 amps Range is 0 to 70A. Factory default is 20A. Note that maximum weld current is 170A. Base Current This parameter sets the STICK weld current.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Programming Parameter Control Panel Display Arc Force Arc Force is effective when in STICK mode only. Arc Force control provides an adjustable amount of Arc Force (or "dig") control. This feature can be particularly beneficial in providing the operator the ability to compensate for variability in joint fit-up in certain situations with particular electrodes. In general increasing the Arc Force control toward 100% (maximum Arc Force) allows greater penetration control to be achieved.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Up Slope This parameter operates in TIG modes only and is used to set the time for the weld current to ramp up from INITIAL current to BASE current. Range is 0.0 to 15.0 seconds. Factory default is 1.0 second. Base Current In DC TIG mode, this parameter sets the TIG welding current. In PULSE TIG mode, this parameter sets the PEAK current. Range is 5 to 170A. Factory default is 120A.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Pulse Mode / Direct DC mode This parameter selects PULSE operating mode or DIRECT DC (-) operating mode. Range is DC or Pulse Mode. Factory default is DC. Trough Current This parameter sets the TIG TROUGH current. The lowest point in the pulse is called the Trough. Range is 5 to base current level. Factory default is 80A.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Pulse Width This parameter sets the percentage “on” time of the PULSE FREQUENCY for BASE weld current when in PULSE operating mode. Range is 15 to 80%. Factory default is 50%. Pulse Frequency This parameter sets the PULSE FREQUENCY when in PULSE operating mode. Range is 0.5 to 500Hz. Factory default is 100Hz. Down Slope This parameter operates in TIG modes only and is used to set the time for the weld current to ramp down to the crater current.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Crater Current This parameter operates in TIG modes only. In 2T mode this is the current at the end of the down slope current ramp. When the welding current reaches the Crater Current value, the welding current will cease and the unit will enter Post Flow mode. In 4T mode, this is the current at the end of the down slope current ramp.
TRANSTIG 170Pi CAUTION Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused in the bayonet terminal. 7. Remote Control Socket The 8 pin Remote Control Socket is used to connect remote control devices to the welding power source. To make connections, align keyway, insert plug, and rotate threaded collar fully clockwise.
TRANSTIG 170Pi A-11663 4T Latch Mode This mode of welding is mainly used for long welding runs to reduce operator fatigue. In this mode the operator can press and release the torch trigger and the output will remain active. To deactivate the power source, the trigger switch must again be depressed and released, thus eliminating the need for the operator to hold the torch trigger.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Note that when the unit is powered on the mode selection control will automatically default to LIFT TIG/HF TIG mode. This is necessary so as to prevent inadvertent arcing should an electrode holder be connected to the unit and mistakenly be in contact with the work piece during power up. 11. Thermal Overload Indicator This welding power source is protected by a self resetting thermostat. The indicator will illuminate if the duty cycle of the power source has been exceeded.
TRANSTIG 170Pi 3.07 Shielding Gas Regulator Operating Instructions ! WARNING This equipment is designed for use with welding grade (Inert) shielding gases only. Shielding Gas Regulator Safety This regulator is designed to reduce and control high pressure gas from a cylinder or pipeline to the working pressure required for the equipment using it. If the equipment is improperly used, hazardous conditions are created that may cause accidents. It is the users responsibility to prevent such conditions.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Installation 1. Remove cylinder valve plastic dust seal. Clean the cylinder valve outlet of impurities that may clog orifices and damage seats before connecting the regulator. Crack the valve (open then close) momentarily, pointing the outlet away from people and sources of ignition. Wipe with a clean lint free cloth. 2. Match regulator to cylinder. Before connecting, check that the regulator label and cylinder marking agree and that the regulator inlet and cylinder outlet match.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Shutdown Close cylinder valve whenever the regulator is not in use. To shut down for extended periods (more than 30 minutes). 1. Close cylinder or upstream valve tightly. 2. Open downstream equipment valves to drain the lines. Bleed gas into a well ventilated area and away from any ignition source. 3. After gas is drained completely, disengage adjusting screw and close downstream equipment valves. 4.

TRANSTIG 170Pi Description The CIGWELD Foot Control is a foot operated switch and potentiometer which starts and stops the welding process and controls welding current through operation of the foot pedal. Refer to list below for compatible Cigweld power sources. Installation Attach the 8-pin connector on the end of the cable to the 8-pin receptacle on the front of the welding machine. To complete the connection, align the keyway, insert the plug, and rotate the threaded collar fully clockwise.
TRANSTIG 170Pi 3.10 Setup for Manual Arc (MMAW) Welding A. Connect the Electrode Holder lead to the positive welding terminal (+). If in doubt, consult the electrode manufacturer. Welding current flows from the Power Source via heavy duty bayonet type terminals. It is essential, however, that the male plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection. B. Connect the work lead to the negative welding terminal (-). If in doubt, consult the electrode manufacturer.

TRANSTIG 170Pi SECTION 4: BASIC WELDING GUIDE 4.01 Stick (MMAW) Basic Welding Technique Size of Electrode The electrode size is determined by the thickness of metals being joined and can also be governed by the type of welding machine available. Small welding machines will only provide sufficient current (amperage) to run the smaller size electrodes. For thin sections, it is necessary to use smaller electrodes otherwise the arc may burn holes through the job.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Welding Position The electrodes dealt with in this publication can be used in most positions, i.e. they are suitable for welding in flat, horizontal, vertical and overhead positions. Numerous applications call for welds to be made in positions intermediate between these. Some of the common types of welds are shown in Figures 4-1 through 4-8.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Art# A-07693 Figure 4-7: Overhead Position, Butt Weld Art # A-07694 Figure 4-8: Overhead Position, Fillet Weld Joint Preparations In many cases, it will be possible to weld steel sections without any special preparation. For heavier sections and for repair work on castings, etc., it will be necessary to cut or grind an angle between the pieces being joined to ensure proper penetration of the weld metal and to produce sound joints.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Arc Welding Technique - A Word to Beginners For those who have not yet done any welding, the simplest way to commence is to run beads on a piece of scrap plate. Use mild steel plate about 6.0mm thick and a 3.2mm electrode. Clean any paint, loose scale or grease off the plate and set it firmly on the work bench so that welding can be carried out in the downhand position. Make sure that the work clamp is making good electrical contact with the work, either directly or through the work table.
TRANSTIG 170Pi If the travel is too fast, the bead will be narrow and strung out and may even be broken up into individual globules. If the travel is too slow, the weld metal piles up and the bead will be too large. Making Welded Joints Having attained some skill in the handling of an electrode, you will be ready to go on to make up welded joints. A. Butt Welds Set up two plates with their edges parallel, as shown in Figure 4-11, allowing 1.6mm to 2.4mm gap between them and tack weld at both ends.
TRANSTIG 170Pi from the vertical. Some electrodes require to be sloped about 20º away from the perpendicular position to prevent slag from running ahead of the weld. Refer to Figure 4-13. Do not attempt to build up much larger than 6.4mm width with a 3.2mm electrode, otherwise the weld metal tends to sag towards the base, and undercut forms on the vertical leg. Multi-runs can be made as shown in Figure 4-14. Weaving in HV fillet welds is undesirable.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Art # A-07702 Figure 4-16: Multi Run Vertical Fillet Weld Art # A-07703 Figure 4-17: Examples of Vertical Fillet Welds 2. Vertical Down The Ferrocraft 21 electrode makes welding in this position particularly easy. Use a 3.2mm electrode at 100 amps. The tip of the electrode is held in light contact with the work and the speed of downward travel is regulated so that the tip of the electrode just keeps ahead of the slag. The electrode should point upwards at an angle of about 45º. 3.
TRANSTIG 170Pi Distortion Distortion in some degree is present in all forms of welding. In many cases it is so small that it is barely perceptible, but in other cases allowance has to be made before welding commences for the distortion that will subsequently occur. The study of distortion is so complex that only a brief outline can be attempted hear. The Cause of Distortion Distortion is caused by: A.
TRANSTIG 170Pi B. Distribution of Stresses Distortion may be reduced by selecting a welding sequence which will distribute the stresses suitably so that they tend to cancel each other out. See Figures 4-20 through 4-23 for various weld sequences. Choice of a suitable weld sequence is probably the most effective method of overcoming distortion, although an unsuitable sequence may exaggerate it. Simultaneous welding of both sides of a joint by two welders is often successful in eliminating distortion. C.

TRANSTIG 170Pi 4.03 TIG (GTAW) Basic Welding Technique Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) or TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) as it is commonly referred to, is a welding process in which fusion is produced by an electric arc that is established between a single tungsten (nonconsumable) electrode and the work piece. Shielding is obtained from a welding grade shielding gas or welding grade shielding gas mixture which is generally Argon based.
