Foreword

This part of Chapter 3, "Terms and definitions" are recommended, the rest are mandatory. "Arc welding equipment" ranging from electric arc welder for its auxiliary equipment, is expected to be divided into 13 parts, which are. --- Part 1. Welding power sources; --- Part 2. Cooling system; --- Part 3. Arc and Arc Stabilisation Unit; --- Part 4. Inspection and testing during use; --- Part 5. Wire feeders; --- Part 6. Load limits for manual metal arc welding power source; --- Part 7. torch (gun); --- Part 8. plasma cutting system gas path means; --- Part 9. Installation and Use; --- Part 10. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements; --- Part 11. Electrode holders; --- Part 12. Coupling devices for welding cables; --- Part 13. Welding clamp. This section "arc welding equipment" in Section 11. This section drafted in accordance with GB/T 1.1-2009 given rules. This Part replaces GB 15579.11-1998 "Part 11 Safety requirements for arc welding equipment. Electrode holders." This portion GB 15579.11-1998 compared to the main changes are as follows. --- Environmental conditions according to GB 15579.1 was modified (see Chapter 4); --- Provides welding tongs rated current is 60% duty cycle corresponding to the welding current value (see Chapter 6); --- Table 1 welding cable minimum cross-sectional area range partly modified (see Table 1); --- Accuracy requirements for measuring instruments has been modified (see 5.1); --- Dielectric strength test, increasing the "Replace test" method (see 8.3). --- Increased tolerance applied during DC rated current temperature rise test (see 9.1); --- Canceled heating rods into the insulating layer depth limits (see 9.3); --- Gives examples of welding clamp mark (see Chapter 11). This section uses redrafted Law Amendment uses IEC 60974-11.2010 "Arc welding equipment Part 11. Electrode holders" only IEC 60974-11.2010 in the heat treatment conditions, the rated current level and the cable cross-sectional area of the range made the appropriate changes. This part of the reason for modification using the IEC 60974-11.2010, because. a) China's vast territory, the southern summer, more typical hot and humid climate, so this part of the press GB/T 2423.3 requirements to the wet The heat treatment temperature is 40 ℃. In this way, in line with national conditions, but also with the welding machine industry GB/T 8118 and other relevant standards coordination Consistent. b) electrode holder is supporting the use of electric arc welder, if the welding current rating level and the nominal current rating discrepancies can cause erroneous solution. So this part of the nominal current rating according to GB/T 8118 provisions of sub-file, IEC 60974-11 current levels to include In the form of number of reservations. c) IEC 60974-11 and IEC 60974-12 respectively welding clamp and welding cable couplers are equipped with cable makes provision, but Regulation Constant welding current and the corresponding cable cross-sectional area different from the former than the latter freshman profile. Since both devices are installed in the arc welding The output of the power supply, the cable cross-sectional area should be consistent. Accordance with the actual usage, this part of the welding current corresponding electrical Cable cross-sectional area shrink a file, the same as IEC 60974-12. This part is proposed by the China Electrical Equipment Industrial Association. This part of the National Welding Standardization Technical Committee (SAC/TC70) centralized. This section is drafted. Ningbo Long Welding Technology Co., Ltd. Nantong-Hong mechanical and electrical welding, mechanical and electrical shares Zhejiang Kende Limited parts, welding tools Yongkang launder Ltd., Shenzhen Ruiling Industrial Co., Ltd., Chengdu tripartite Electric Co. Division of Electrical, Inspection and Chengdu. The main drafters of this section. Chending Long, Tang Zikang, Zhuxuan Hui, Wang Xinmin, Qiu light, Xing Jun, Pan Ying. This part of the standard replaces the previous editions are. --- GB 15579.11-1998. Welding equipment - Part 11. Electrode holders
