Power Requirements

AC Power

See Table 13-IV. With the exception of Model 4900, the
power cord uses a three–pole, four–blade, grounding type
plug designed for 3-Phase 480 VAC at 30 Amps. The 480
VAC 3-Phase plug configuration is shown in Figure 13-1.
It is designed to be plugged into a 480 VAC, 3-Phase,
30 Amp, NEMA type L16–30R receptacle as shown in
Figure 13-2.
The power cord supplied is approximately 14 feet long.
For Model 4300, the user passes the cord through one of
the Power Port holes (See Figure 13-3). For Models 4500
and 4700 the cord exits from the top rear of the welder
cabinet, so the 480 VAC outlet needs to be close to the
machine. Model 4900 is not supplied with a power cord.
Consult your local electrical guidelines to learn if the
machine can be operated with a power cord plugged
into an outlet, or if it needs to be hardwired to a 480 Volt
circuit. For safety and reliability, the machine should be
permanently wired inside electrical conduit to a 480 Volt
circuit. A minimum of 10 - Gauge wire is recommended
to safely handle the 30-Amp welder current.
NOTE: Model 4900 requires a 480VAC, 3 Phase, 40
Amp source of electrical power.
Do not alter the plug or receptacle in any way. Do not
use an extension cord. If there is any question about the
grounding or phasing of your AC power, have it checked
by a qualified electrician.

Compressed Air

The welder requires a supply of clean, dry, compressed air
at 75 to 90 psi (0.52 to 0.62 MPascal or 5.1 to 6.1 Bar).
