What does No Welding Current (Overtemperature - Duty Cycle) mean?
The welding machine is active and displaying an overtemperature condition but produces no welding current. This occurs when the device has been operated beyond its specified duty cycle, leading to internal heating.
Common Causes
- Welding machine has been overloaded during operation.
- The duty cycle for the specific welding current and ambient temperature has been exceeded.
Repair Steps & Checklist
