Overview

The MobileFeed 301 AVS (Arc Voltage Sensing) is a portable wire feeder. The unit is
powered entirely on the arc voltage from a constant current (CC) or constant voltage (CV)
welding power source. It operates with reversed polarity, Direct Current Electrode Positive
(DCEP), or straight polarity, Direct Current Electrode Negative (DCEN). The MobileFeed 301
AVS is available with two connections, EURO and TWECO. A remote option is available with
the Warrior power source (requires software update to the power source).
The unit is designed for use with hard, soft, and cored electrodes (gas shielded or
self-shielded) from 0.030" (0.8mm) through 5/64" (1.98mm) diameter with a wire feed speed
from 50 to 750 in/min (1.3 - 19.0 m/min). The feeder components are totally enclosed in a
