DESIGN FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES

• Separate output terminals for selecting high or low
inductance as recommended for the welding
process.
• Power on/off switch with pilot light and thermostat
tripped indicator light.
• Full range output voltage (CV mode) and current
(CC mode) control for easy operation.
• Panel switches behind a latched front panel for
remote or local output control, output on or remote
selection, and CC, CV Sub-arc or CV MIG mode
selection.
• Panel knob settable CC arc force control with built-in
adjustable "Hot Start".
• High efficiency output, and selectable "sleep mode"
idle mode timer which shuts down input power if not
used for extra energy conservation.
• Fan as needed (F.A.N.). Solid state thermally con-
trolled fan operates cooling fan only when required.
Minimizes power consumption, operating noise and
dust intake.
• Hinged cover to protect output terminals and auxil-
iary connections.
• Electronic and thermostatic protection for current
overload and excessive temperatures.
• 42 VAC, 10 amp auxiliary power available for the
wire feeder; circuit breaker protected.
• 115 VAC, auxiliary power protected by a 20 amp
breaker available for the wire feeder. Canadian Code
10502, European, and Export Models protected by
15 amp breaker.
• 115 VAC duplex receptacle protected by 20 amp
breaker is available on Domestic and Canadian
Models, except for Canadian Code 10502 receptacle
that is a NEMA 5-15R, protected by a 15 amp break-
er.
• 220 VAC receptacle on European and Export mod-
els for connecting to a water cooler. Protected by 2
amp breaker.
• Single MS-type (14-pin) connection for wire feeder.
• Optional Field Installed Digital or Analog
Voltmeter/Ammeter kits are available.
OPERATION
• Optional dual feeder kit for like polarity connection of
two wire feeders. Easy panel installation.
• Optional Dual Process Switch for two processes with
polarity change and electrical isolation.
