DC-1500
The DC-1500 is a multiprocess DC arc welding power source for
automatic welding applications. It produces outstanding arc
characteristics on both constant voltage and constant current
processes. This provides great welding versatility in a single power
source.
The DC-1500 is designed for submerged arc welding, and FCAW
processes within the capacity of the machine. It produces
outstanding welding performance with a single range full output
control potentiometer.
The precise output of the DC-1500 enhances productivity and
quality control when used with Lincoln NA-3 and NA-5 automatic
wire feeders, and the LT-7 tractor.
