This may affect a number of device types in terms of:
- connection restrictions
-

In this case, the operator or the person using the device should check whether or not the
device is allowed to be connected, where appropriate through discussion with the power
supply company.
IMPORTANT! Ensure secure grounding of the grid connection!
Personal Protec-
tion and Protec-
tion of Others
You are exposed to numerous hazards while handling the device, for example:
- Flying sparks and pieces of hot metal
- Arc radiation that poses a risk of injury to the eyes and skin
- Hazardous electromagnetic fields that pose a risk of death for individuals with pace-
makers
- Electrical risks from grid current and welding current
- Increased noise exposure
- Harmful welding fumes and gases
Wear suitable protective clothing when dealing with the device. The protective clothing
must have the following properties:
- Flame resistant
- Insulating and dry
- Covering the entire body and in good condition with no damage
- Safety helmet
- Cuffless pants
Protective clothing involves the following:
- Protecting the face and eyes from UV radiation, heat and flying sparks with a face
guard featuring a regulation-compliant filter
- Wearing regulation-compliant protective goggles with side protection behind the face
guard
- Wearing rigid, wet-insulating footwear
- Protecting hands with appropriate gloves (featuring electrical insulation and thermal
protection)
- Wearing ear protection to reduce noise exposure and protect against injury
Keep persons, especially children, away during the operation of the devices and during
the welding process. If persons are in the vicinity, however:
- Instruct them about all hazards (blinding hazard due to arcs, risk of injury from flying
sparks, welding fumes hazardous to health, noise exposure, possible hazard due to
grid current or welding current, etc.)
- Provide suitable protective equipment or
- Construct suitable protective walls and curtains.
Data regarding
Noise Emission
Values
The device produces a maximum noise level of <80 dB(A) (ref. 1pW) when idling and in
the cooling phase following operation in relation to the maximum permitted operating
point at standard loading in accordance with EN 60974-1.
A workplace-specific emission value for welding (and cutting) cannot be specified
because this value depends on the welding process and the environmental conditions. It
is influenced by a wide range of parameters, such as the welding process itself (MIG/
MAG, TIG welding), the selected current type (direct current, alternating current), the
