Sherman Tig (Jasic in disguise?)

[Altintas]

i will glue it and later
water transfer printing

I tightened the screws to tight

Get some abs rod and tig weld it.

The Sealey TIG200HFACDCF foot pedal works nicely with the Sherman. This style foot pedal is the same as most that retail for £200, but can be had for around £90 (Amazon had this for £70, but it's gone back up near £100). I just replaced the connector with the XS12 5 pin connector and now I just use a plain CK torch.

Does anyone know which wire is which in the Sealey pedal? Is there any easy way to tell using a multimeter?

I would think that taking the cover off the pedal would tell you. Two wires will go to the microswitch, and the other three to the potentiometer (one at each end and one to the wiper). That’s what the Sherman pedal has, although it’s slightly muddled in the Sherman because it has an extra pot on the side).

 

[Richiew]

Think I am sorted. Couple of pics in case anyone is interested. To be clear, this is the Sealey (Possibly SSC) pedal not the Sherman one.

10k pot so matches the welder. The spring loaded side pins just push in to allow you to split the pedal.

So black and red go to pins 5 and 3 It wont matter which way I presume.
The wiper which is the mauve wire goes to pin four.
Does it matter which way the pot min and max wires go round to 1 and 2?

Yes, 5 and 3 don’t matter. If 1 and 2 are swopped the pedal might work backwards I think (or may not even work at all), though that could depend on the circuit layout inside the welder. Maybe someone else can confirm this is the case..?

@eddie49 or @DavidL will know

Can't confirm what will happen but you won't damage anything.

I can have a look at mine tomorrow and figure out which way it should be.

Having never tried TIG before after around 3 hours practice starting to look acceptable :-)
Bit of burn through so probably need to move faster and more current.

Yes, that would be the result. If pins 1 and 2 are connected the wrong way round to the "low and "high" ends of the pot, the foot pedal will work backwards, so that maximum current would be with the pedal released and the current would decrease to minimum as you push the pedal down. ( That would be an amusing fault to build in to a drive-by-wire car accelerator pedal... ) The "wrong" connection will not hurt anything - apart from burning out your tungsten - so if the correct wiring isn't known, just try it either way.

I asked tecweld for a new front panel today. I received the answer that they had none

@www_weldes_de Not good !

Did you send message to us? Did you buy from us? If tecweld don't have front panel, then we exchange whole welder...

If someone need 5-PIN plugs or sockets to 206P AC/DC, we just add it to shop.

Hi, today i got the torch collet that was broken, and tnx a lot for the 3 extra collets a 2 tungstens !

Very good job @www_weldes_de

 

[Altintas]

I got two devices for repairs which were taken out of the program by the importer due to many defects

90% identical to jasic

 

[Altintas]

one is alive again plus silicon everywhere

 

[Altintas]

I put the sherman display in the Weldinger

 

[Hood]

I put the sherman display in the Weldinger

So it is basically the same internals ?

Yes

 

[Altintas]

the components are identical but from other manufacturers, inferior

the igbts were defective and are from a different manufacturer

Have you got a link to the 5 Pin plugs?
