Welding Equipment selection criteria
- Welding process type
- Welding Characteristics
- Duty cycle
- Environment – Ambient Temperature
- Degree of protection class for enclosures
- Supply – Standard through Busbars or through DG sets
- Special applications like pipe laying etc
- Welding current stability or dynamic response
Welding process type
- SMAW
- GMAW
- GTAW
- SAW
Special considerations
- Printed circuit boards should be coated with protective layer to protect them against the conducting and non-conducting dust- These PCBs should not be in the main air ventilation path
- These PCBs also should preferably be housed in the metallic or plastic box
Welding trials for performance
