GB/T 15579.5-2023 is the English-translated version of 弧焊设备第5部分：送丝装置.

GB/T 15579.5-2023 is the Chinese standard "Arc welding equipment - Part 5: Wire feeders". Its scope clause reads: This document specifies the safety requirements and performance requirements for wire feed devices used in arc welding and similar processes for industrial and professional use.

This document applies to split-type (separate from the welding equipment), integrated (installed in a single enclosure or together with other welding equipment in wire feed device or wire feed control device in a separate housing).

The wire feed unit can be used with either a manual or mechanically guided welding torch. This document does not apply to welding torches with wire spools in IEC 60974-7.

Note 1.Typical similar processes include arc cutting and spraying. Note 2.This document does not include the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements specified in IEC 60974-10. Its clauses include normative reference documents; terms and definitions.
