Technology creates change.
The ability to evolve along
with change is what
distinguishes a successful
product from the rest.

Power source design is
almost entirely devoted
to reliability. Fast power
conversion is important to
obtaining a smooth
welding output, but we
also know that speed is
inconsequential without
reliability. No matter how
fast your machine operates,
if it is not durable, then it is
not usable for welding. And
if it is not welding, you are
not meeting your
production goals and
making a living.

QUICKER RESPONSE

High-speed power conversion allows for quick response to changing
arc conditions.

SMALLER FOOTPRINT

Power electronic components are compact, making equipment size smaller and
therefore more portable.

UNIVERSAL INPUT VOLTAGE

Capable of operating from 208 to 575 volts on virtually any power supply for
versatile, consistent performance.

HIGHLY EFFICIENT

Smaller transformer coils, higher thermal conductivity, and higher operating
frequencies means more efficient output power, and more economical use
of power. This translates to decreased utility costs and increased power
source efficiency.

WAVEFORM CONTROL TECHNOLOGY

The inverter technology in

the Invertec

®

V350-PRO

gives it equivalent power

capabilities as a

conventional

transformer/rectifier

such as the Lincoln

CV-305, but in

a much smaller and

portable machine.
