PIPEFAB™ WELDING SYSTEM
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT
The PipeFab™ Power Source and PipeFab™ Feeder make one cohesive unit that must be paired
·
together.
PROCESS LIMITATIONS
Processes must be within the duty cycle and rating of the power source and wire feeder. See
·
the Technical Specifications section of this manual for more information.
EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
The software based weld tables of the PipeFab™ Power Source limit the process capability
·
within the output range and the safe limits of the machine. In general the processes will be
limited to .030- .052 solid steel wire, .030 -.045 stainless wire, .035 -1/16 cored wire.
The power source and UI may require software updates.
·
· The system does not include weld cables.
· Not compatible with K1500-1, K1500-2, K1500-3, K1500-4 K1500-5 and K489-7 gun adapter
kits.
· PipeFab™ Feeder is only compatible with the PipeFab™ Power Source.
· PipeFab™ Power Source is only compatible with the PipeFab™ Feeder.
