WARNING
Arc welding and cutting can be injurious to yourself and others. Take precautions when welding and
cutting. Ask for your employer's safety practices which should be based on manufacturers' hazard
data.
ESAB can provide you with all necessary welding protection and accessories.
WARNING
Do not use the power source for thawing frozen pipes.
CAUTION
Read and understand the instruction manual before
installing or operating.
CAUTION
This product is solely intended for arc welding.
CAUTION
Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential locations where
the electrical power is provided by the public low-voltage supply system.
There may be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic
compatibility of class A equipment in those locations, due to conducted
as well as radiated disturbances.

2 INTRODUCTION
The Tig 1500i / 2200i is a TIG welding power source, which can also be used for
MMA welding. It can be used direct current (DC).
2.1 Equipment
The power source is supplied with a 3 m welding cable complete with a TIG-torch,
3 m return cable, 3 m mains cable, instruction manual for power source and control
panel, see Ordering information on page 20.
Instruction manuals in other languages can be downloaded from the website,
www.esab.com.
See the separate instruction manual for a detailed description of the control panels.

Duty cycle
The duty cycle refers to the time as a percentage of a ten-minute period that you can weld or cut at
a certain load without overloading. The duty cycle is valid for 40° C.
Enclosure class
The IP code indicates the enclosure class, i. e. the degree of protection against penetration by solid
objects or water. Equipment marked IP23 is designed for indoor and outdoor use.
Application class
The symbol indicates that the power source is designed for use in areas with increased
electrical hazard.
Mains supply, Z max
Maximum permissible line impedance of the network in accordance with IEC 61000-3-11.

4 INSTALLATION
The installation must be carried out by a professional.
Note
Mains supply requirements
High power equipment may, due to the primary current drawn from the mains supply, influence the
power quality of the grid. Therefore connection restrictions or requirements regarding the
maximum permissible mains impedance or the required minimum supply capacity at the interface
point to the public grid may apply for some types of equipment (see technical data). In this case it
is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation with the
distribution network operator if necessary, that the equipment may be connected.
4.1 Location
Position the welding power source such that its cooling air inlets and outlets are not
obstructed.

5.4 TIG-welding
Before using the Tig 1500i/2200i for TIG welding it must be equipped with:
a TIG torch
a cylinder of suitable welding gas
a welding gas regulator (suitable gas regulator)
tungsten electrodes
suitable filler metal, if necessary
5.5 MMA-welding
nection of the
cated on the package of the electrode to be used.
Connect the return cable to the other terminal. Fit the earth clamp of the return cable
to the work-piece and make sure there is good contact between the work-piece and the
return cable terminal on the welding power source.
5.6 Overheating protection
The power source has two thermal overload trips which operate if the internal
temperature becomes too high. A fault code is shown in the panel. They reset
automatically when the temperature has fallen.

6 MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance is important for safe, reliable operation.
Only those persons who have appropriate electrical knowledge (authorized
personnel) may remove the safety plates to connect or carry out service,
maintenance or repair work on welding equipment.
CAUTION
All guarantee undertakings from the supplier cease to apply if the customer attempts any
work to rectify any faults in the product during the guarantee period.
7 FAULT-TRACING
Try these recommended checks and inspections before sending for an authorised
service technician.
Type of fault Corrective action
No arc. Check that the mains power supply switch is turned on.
Check that the welding current supply and return cables are
correctly connected.
Check that the correct current value is set.
Check the mains power supply.
The welding current is Check to see whether the thermal cut-outs have tripped.
