Quattro elementi DIY repair

The weakest element of welding transformers is the terminal block to which the welding cables are connected. Poor contact together with a high welding current leads to strong heating of the connection and the wires connected to it. As a result, the connection itself is destroyed, the insulation at the ends of the windings burns out, as a result of which a short circuit occurs.

Repair of a welding transformer in this case is reduced to sorting out the heating joint, cleaning the contact surfaces and clamping them, ensuring tight contact of all elements.

Among others, the following malfunctions occur.

Spontaneous shutdown of the welding machine... When the transformer is connected to the network, its protection is triggered, as a result of which the device is turned off. This can occur due to short circuits in the high voltage circuit - between the wires and the case, or wires between themselves. A short circuit between the turns of the coils or sheets of the magnetic circuit, as well as the breakdown of capacitors, can also trigger the protection. When repairing, it is necessary to disconnect the transformer from the network, find the defective place and eliminate the malfunction - restore the insulation, replace the capacitor, etc.

Strong hum of the transformer, often accompanied by overheating. The reason may be loosening of the bolts tightening the sheet elements of the magnetic circuit, malfunctions in the fastening of the core or the mechanism for moving the coils, overloading of the transformer (excessively long operation, high value of the welding current, large diameter of the electrode). A short circuit between welding cables or sheets of a magnetic circuit also leads to a strong hum. It is necessary to check and tighten all screws and bolts, eliminate irregularities in the mechanisms for fixing the core and moving the coils, check and restore the insulation in the welding cables.

Excessive heating of the welding machine... The most common reasons for this include a violation of the operating rules in the form of setting the welding current above the permissible value, using a large diameter electrode or too long work without interruption. It is necessary to observe the standard operating mode - set moderate current values, use electrodes of small diameters, take breaks in work to cool the device.

Strong heating can lead to a short circuit between the turns of the coil winding due to combustion of the insulation, usually accompanied by smoke. This is the most serious case, about which they say that the apparatus "burned out". If this happened, then the repair of the welding machine will require, at best, a local restoration of the coil wire insulation, at worst - its complete rewinding. In the latter version, in order to preserve the characteristics of the apparatus, it is necessary to rewind with a wire of the original section - with the same number of turns as it was.

Low welding current... The phenomenon can be observed with undervoltage in the supply network or a malfunction of the welding current regulator.

Poor welding current adjustment... This can be caused by various faults in the current control mechanisms, which differ in different designs of welding transformers. Namely, malfunctions in the screw of the current regulator, a short circuit between the terminals of the regulator, a violation of the mobility of the secondary coils due to the ingress of foreign objects or other reasons, a short circuit in the choke coil, etc. It is necessary to remove the casing from the apparatus and investigate the specific current control mechanism in order to detect a malfunction. The simplicity of the device of the welding machine and the accessibility of all its components for inspection make it easier to troubleshoot.

A sudden break in the welding arc and the inability to ignite it again... Instead of an arc, only small sparks are observed. This can be caused by a breakdown of the high voltage winding to the welding circuit, a short circuit between the welding wires, or a disruption in their connection to the terminals of the machine.

Consumption of large current from the network at no load... This can be caused by a short circuit of the winding turns, which is eliminated by a local restoration of insulation or a complete rewinding of the coil.

The available electronic part - a diode rectifier and a control module - makes the welding rectifier akin to an inverter. Therefore, troubleshooting involves checking the diode bridge and elements of the control board. A diode bridge is a reliable component in electronic circuits, but sometimes it fails. In general, the reasons for the malfunction can be very different: the tracks on the boards burn out, the control circuit transformers fail. The photo below shows a case when repairing a welding machine with your own hands, which consisted of replacing a non-working part of a control board with a Russian analogue, allowed the user to save a considerable amount on repairs (70% of the cost of the welding machine).

Unlike a welding transformer, which is more of an electrical product, a welding inverter is an electronic device. This means that diagnostics and repair of welding inverters involves checking the performance of transistors, diodes, resistors, zener diodes and other elements that make up electronic circuits. You need to be able to work with an oscilloscope, not to mention multimeters, voltmeters and other ordinary measuring equipment.

A feature of the repair of inverters is the fact that in many cases it is difficult or even impossible to determine by the nature of the malfunction a failed component, you have to check all the elements of the circuit sequentially.

From the foregoing, it follows that the successful repair of a welding inverter with your own hands is possible only if you have at least initial knowledge in electronics and little experience in working with electrical circuits. Otherwise, self-repair can only result in a waste of time and effort.

As you know, the principle of operation of a welding inverter is a step-by-step conversion of an electrical signal:

• Rectifying the mains current - using an input rectifier.
• Converting the rectified current into high-frequency alternating current - in the inverter module.
• Lowering the high-frequency voltage to the welding voltage - with a power transformer (very small in size due to the high frequency of the voltage).
• Rectification of alternating high-frequency current into constant welding - by an output rectifier.

In accordance with the operations performed, the inverter structurally consists of several electronic modules, the main of which are the input rectifier module, the output rectifier module and the control board with keys (transistors).

While the main components in inverters of different designs remain unchanged, their layout in devices from different manufacturers can vary greatly.

Checking transistors... The weakest point of inverters is transistors, so the repair of inverter welding machines usually begins with their inspection. A faulty transistor is usually visible immediately - a cracked or cracked case, burned-out leads. If such is found, you can start repairing the inverter by replacing it. This is what a burnt key looks like.

And this is how it was installed instead of the burnt one. The transistor is installed on thermal paste (KPT-8), which provides good heat dissipation to the aluminum radiator.

Sometimes there are no external signs of malfunction, all keys appear to be intact. Then, to determine the faulty transistor, a multimeter is used to dial them.

It is very good to identify faulty items, but not all.Repair of inverter welding machines also involves the search, instead of burnt out elements, suitable analogues. For this, the characteristic of the failed elements is determined (according to the datasheet) and, based on it, analogues are selected for replacement.

Checking Driver Items... Power transistors usually do not fail by themselves, most often this is preceded by the failure of the elements of the "swinging" their driver. Below is a photo of the board with the elements of the Telwin Tecnica 164 inverter driver. The check is carried out using an ohmmeter. All defective parts are soldered out and replaced with suitable analogs.

Rectifier test... Input and output rectifiers, which are diode bridges mounted on a radiator, are considered reliable elements of inverters. However, sometimes they also fail. This does not apply to those shown in the photo below, they are serviceable.

The diode bridge is most conveniently checked by unsoldering the wires from it and removing it from the board. This makes work easier and does not deceive when there is a short circuit in the circuit. The verification algorithm is simple, if the entire group is short-circuited, you need to look for a faulty (punctured) diode.

It is convenient to use a soldering iron with a suction for desoldering parts.

Control board monitoring... The key control board is the most complex module of the welding inverter; the reliability of the functioning of all components of the device depends on its operation. A qualified repair of welding inverters should end with a check for the presence of control signals coming to the busbars of the gates of the key module. This check is carried out using an oscilloscope.

Sergey, good day!
U-Kmaster, Disassemble the burner, clean! Take out the collet and read it with a fine sandpaper outside and in the hole, or if possible, replace the collet with a new one. Clean the nozzle, perhaps there are drops of metal in the inside, perhaps the nozzle is cracked. We do not see from here, and the cards are in your hands! I don’t think it’s a matter of the apparatus.

Dear forum management.
I can’t “answer”, I can’t “answer with quotation”, I can only “edit” and “answer in the subject” in a small window.
Here I try.
The further - the better.
The button "This is useful" appeared again.
So when will it end?
If I had this on my computer at all forums, I would say that the computer is to blame. And so - only here.
Maybe that Don River mudlo (I can't find another word) hurts here? Or haven't you even seen him? Take a look. Knocked him down this morning.
And it seems to me that this is one and the same creature suffering from sexogeomatipathy that has appeared before.
Every time it registers, and then until the next deletion on (sorry) my branch. Is this an attack on the forum, or just someone's inaction? Or am I the only one interested in the cleanliness of the forum? Or poke the admins in the nose?
So poked, for example like this:

So what? Something has changed?
And if the top has actions, then show the result. But it only gets worse.

Sorry guys. This kind of inaction is just infuriating. Where am I wrong? There is no result. I can be scolded for not following the rules, I can be punished, I can be removed or banned, but you can't ignore my requests. Otherwise, why am I here? This means that there will be no reaction to requests from members of the forum.
Remember, the top, (if you know at all) the situation with the search for a file hosting service. Did any of you help? Except as the members of the forum did not find it.
And what to do?
But the "Very useful" button works. And for (why) do I need it?

Do I work for you and your money? Or are you for me and others like me? How do you decide already.
I'm just sure who of you (the top) will read this.

I am writing deliberately not in a personal message, and not to the mail, and not to Skype. And I want to hear an answer or an explanation right here, in an open form, on the forum. Once in more than two years. ONCE.
To cast aside doubts - I don't drink, or I suspect. all sorts of thoughts will appear now.

I do not know how to draw attention to this. Who of the members of the forum read this, and who shares my point of view, I don’t know, click “This is useful”.I am ready to listen to any opinion.
From SW. Sergei.

We were looking for a cabin with only a high pallet. In terms of size and depth, it is just a little short of a full-fledged bath, but it allows you to do a lot of things. For example, it is great for washing, bathing children, and an adult may well sit in a sitz bath. It is very convenient to drain the water after bathing, the clever clik-clak system.

We chose the cabin for a very long time and very carefully. Therefore, everything suits us. They themselves did not dare to install. You never know what. Made by professionals, so the cabin does not let us down.

Our bathroom is of a decent size, so we chose a large cabin. And since we have two small children, we cannot do without a high pallet. The pallet is strong, children are constantly jumping on it, it is not cracked anywhere. The glasses are thick, durable and safe. The mechanism of the doors is made conscientiously, after not quite neatly closing them (children move their backs), they continue to close tightly.

Heating is generally a separate hassle, there are so many things to consider when buying ... If my friend had not advised me, I would probably still toil now, spending money on experiments. Now I have been using the Dozatech boiler for about a year and have stopped, then I do not look for other options. The boiler is five-way, I usually only met 1-3 running ones, and plus the costs are small, because pellets can generally be taken the cheapest, this does not affect the quality of heating at all.

I use pellets for two winters. This boiler was advised by a friend. I looked at the design, read the reviews - I liked everything. Well, in the process of operation I did not get confused. Made of high-quality steel, the burner is retort and the feed is two-level (I work with two augers and pellets are poured from the side directly onto the burner). This prevents a fire in the bunker. Therefore, I can safely leave it to keep warm for a week. By the way, I also liked the bunker - it is spacious and it is easy to load pellets, even my wife can handle it.

In this section, practical cases of repair from our service center

Be careful! The information provided should not be taken as a guide to action, since in the event of an attempt to repair complex electronic devices by unqualified personnel, various negative consequences may occur.

If the equipment fails, its owner, who for one reason or another does not have time to deliver the broken unit to the service center, independently determines the cause of the breakdown, calls a familiar single-handed master, reports the malfunction and asks to come to repair or replace the part ... Perhaps such a repair will be able to restore the equipment to work, but for how long? It is likely that after a while the unit will fail again, and already due to another breakdown. What's the matter? In the absence of comprehensive diagnostics, which allows not only to determine the specific cause of the malfunction, but also to assess the general condition of the equipment. And if the owner does not realize the importance of diagnostics in time, then he will spend money “down the drain”, scolding equipment manufacturers for its poor-quality manufacturing and feeling sorry for himself.

Good time of the day. Recently I became the proud owner of a quattro elementi 185 inverter for manual arc welding. It took some time to learn how to cook with a coated electrode. After a while, the thought came to mind: what if instead of an electrode (piece) to use flux-cored wire (consumable electrode), which is used for semi-automatic welding without gas. The thing is that when welding with flux-cored wire, there is virtually no slag, which, accordingly, does not need to be cleaned. In addition, in my opinion, welding of a vertical seam from top to bottom is simplified, for the reason that the slag does not flow under the weld pool (since it does not exist). Yes, you will have to cut and trim the wire to keep it straight. But still curious, maybe who did this?

P.S. The vertical seam is welded from bottom to top. If you weld from top to bottom, the metal from the weld pool gets into the cold area. The result is the absence of penetration, porosity and cavities in the seam.

The vertical seams are welded with short stitches. Carry out penetration, when you notice the beginning of the formation of a bulge, take a short break. As soon as the flux begins to darken slightly, welding resumes. If you missed the time, wait until the flux cools down, beat it off and continue heating where you left off.

There are several types of stabilizers:

The cost of repairs depends on the malfunction, on the power and on the circuit of the device (type). You can read more about types and their fundamental difference in our article.

• Error on display L, H
• Knocks out a machine gun
• Does not turn on
• Does not stabilize

At errors on the display L (low voltage), H (high voltage) most likely the control board will need to be repaired. By cost from 700 rubles for relay type stabilizers and from 2500r for electromechanical.
If knocks out the net (machine), then repairing Quattro Elementi will cost from 700 rubles both for relay type and electromechanical. The price depends primarily on the power of the device.
If the stabilizer Quattro Elementi does not work, the fault can be caused by the control board, standby power circuits and / or transformer. The cost of the repair will be from 500r.
If Quattro Elementi does not stabilize (input voltage = output voltage, or reduced at the output), then the repair will be from 700 rubles for relay type and from 2500r for electromechanical. In this case, we also recommend checking the machine and replacing it.

wearers of electric prostheses (for example: artificial limbs-prostheses, hearing

contact lens wearers (remove lenses before using the apparatus)

People belonging to the above groups should be at a safe distance from
working area.
2.12. Electromagnetic compatibility and potential problems
Quattro Elementi machines have passed the necessary EMC tests in
in accordance with the established directives. However, during welding,
devices can affect installations in the vicinity.
The electric arc generated during welding creates electromagnetic fields that affect
on electronic devices. The user must take all possible precautions
so that electromagnetic interference does not directly or indirectly damage people and institutions
(hospitals, laboratories, information processing centers, etc.).
The welding machines comply with the IP21 protection system. It is forbidden to store and use
devices in the rain and dusty environment.

3.1. Equipment
The devices are equipped with a mains cable with a mains plug.

Delivered with the device: return cable with earth clamp, cable with holder
electrode, case, shoulder strap, this manual and warranty card.

3.2. The correct choice of apparatus.
Please read this paragraph carefully to avoid misunderstandings.
Like any electrical device, the welding machine heats up during operation. The higher
the value of the set welding current and the longer the work is done, the stronger. For
prevention of failure, the device is equipped with thermal protection, which, when exceeded
permissible temperature inside the case, will turn off the device. Overheating occurs when
the duration of work exceeds the permissible value.

If the fan heater does not turn on when connected to the mains and pressing the button, there may be several reasons for the malfunction. The first thing to do is to check the electrical cord, it may have been interrupted somewhere during summer storage. Did not help? We take a screwdriver and a multimeter, after which we proceed to self-repair the fan heater. The most likely cause of the malfunction is the fuse box, one of which has tripped due to overheating.

Using the Scarlett household heater as an example SC158 Let's consider in the form of step-by-step instructions how to fix a fan heater with your own hands:

1. First, unscrew the screws on the back cover, there are usually 6 of them, as shown in the photo.
2. Next, we ring the main elements of the circuit with a multimeter: thermal fuses, a thermostat, a thermal switch. The first fuse can be seen immediately without removing the blades. To find the second one, which is on the engine, you will have to remove the fan. You call the circuit with a multimeter on your own and if the reason is really this type of breakdown, you buy the exact same element in the store and replace it (the cost is not more than 30 rubles).

We draw your attention to the fact that it is strictly forbidden to replace the fuses with thin wires (bugs). With this method of repairing a fan heater with your own hands, you will make a fire hazardous heater that will not work when overheated!

The second popular failure of a fan heater is blowing, but not heating the air. In this case, the cause of the malfunction is most likely a heating element - a spiral or a ceramic heating element. Everything is simple here - you check the resistance in the circuit with a multimeter and if an open circuit occurs somewhere, you need to replace the heating element with a new one. Sometimes it happens that the heater stops heating because one of the sections of the spiral is damaged. In this case, you can try to repair the fan heater yourself by connecting the nichrome spiral.

It is also not a rare case when the same fuse is the cause of a breakdown. If the fan heater does not heat up, check the fuses using the technology provided above.

In addition, the bimetallic thermostat often fails (shown in the photo with a red arrow). For repair, you just need to clean its contacts yourself to a metallic color and warm it up yourself with a soldering iron. The thermostat should behave as follows: when heated, the contacts must open the circuit, when cooled down, close again. If the device does not work, try to manually close the temperature controller and connect the heater to the mains. If it is a worker, the spiral should be heated.

If the fan heater works, but the fan does not turn, the most likely cause of the malfunction is the motor stopped working. What to do in this case? Ring the part with a multimeter and check the insides. Perhaps the bearings are simply worn out and need to be replaced. We talked about how to use a multimeter in the corresponding article!

Another breakdown option is heavy dust pollution, as a result of which the fan does not spin or often turns off. Try to repair the motor yourself by wiping it with a rag and dripping a little machine oil between the moving and stationary parts. Did not help? We replace the broken electric motor with a new one with the same characteristics.

Well, and the last malfunction - the fan heater does not heat the air well. In this case, the cause of the breakdown is contamination of the spare parts. Most likely, the heating element is covered in dust, as a result of which heating occurs weakly, for example, at the second speed, as at the first. For such an easy repair, turn off the power and use a dry rag or vacuum cleaner to walk over all the elements of the circuit, the main thing is not to damage anything. Did you do it, but it doesn't help? Check the electrical plug, it may be at fault. Turn on the heater for a few minutes, then remove the plug from the socket and feel the electrodes. If one of them is noticeably warmer than the second, the electrical plug is broken, as a result of which the household heater produces little heat.
