36、ch half-weld cycle of alternating current 4 Welding current measuring system 4.1 General Welding current measuring systems consist of a welding current meter, a current sensor (e.g. current sensing coil, non-inductive shunt, or any suitable sensors) and display. 4.2 Applicability The welding current

37、 measuring system shall be selected based on a consideration of the following factors, in order to guarantee highly accurate measurement: type of current sensor (coil, shunt, other suitable sensors); type of welding current (alternating, direct or pulsed current); current level or current range; fre

38、quency of current or current waveform; location of current sensor (primary or secondary of circuit). Welding current measuring systems are classified into two types. One is used for measurement of alternating current only, which does not apply correctly to measurements of direct current. The other i

39、s a multi-purpose type applicable for the measurement of all current types, including continuous direct and pulsed direct current in addition to alternating current. 4.3 Accuracy The scatter in measured current value is caused by the following factors: manufacturing variations of current sensor and

40、existence of distortion caused by incorrect use, or excessive repeat bending in fitting and detaching the coil; setting position of current sensor; magnetic noise affecting the connection parts of cables and connecting leads; temperature variations; design differences in the integrator/amplifier use

41、d to convert the output signal of the current sensor to a current waveform, and different calculation algorithms for welding current value in the data processing 7 EN ISO 17657-1:2007 (E) unit, in particular different definitions of the start time and finish time for calculation of r.m.s. current va

42、lues; variation of the input impedance and gain setting of the integrator if the combination of the current sensor and the integrator has been changed (when using a current sensing coil). For high accurate measurements of welding current, i.e. less than 0,5 % error, the current sensing coil shall be

43、 located in the same position as that in which it was calibrated. The welding current measuring system shall be calibrated as a set including the current sensor and integrator/amplifier in order to guarantee the accuracy. If calibration of the sensor alone is required, the input impedance of the cal

44、ibration system shall be the same value as the input impedance of the welding current meter. 4.4 Welding current meter with current sensing coil The welding current sensing system consists of at least a current sensing coil, an integrator, a data processing unit, and output devices for displaying or

45、 recording the welding current value and weld time. See Figure 1. The current sensing coil is used for detecting the changing magnetic flux around the welding electrode or current conductor. The integrator converts a signal detected by the current sensing coil to the current waveform, and the data p

Th

48、e current sensing coils are predominantly used for current measurement, and classified into two main types, one is a flexible coil, the other is a rigid coil. The flexible coil type is usually used to measure the welding current set at the secondary circuit of a resistance welding machine. The rigid

49、 coil type can be mounted in any positions in the secondary or primary circuit, or built into the transformer. 5.2 Selection of current sensor The following factors shall be checked when selecting the type of a current sensor to be used: sensitivity/conversion coefficient; maximum output voltage of the current sensor in the measuring range; frequency response; setting position error; temperature dependency of the sensitivity/conversion coefficient; current sensor output load
