REMOTE CONTROL

The AIR VANTAGE

®

700 (AU) CUMMINS is equipped

with a 6-pin and a 14-pin connector. The 6-pin con-
nector is for connecting the K857 or K857-1 Remote
Control or for TIG welding, the K870 foot Amptrol or
the K963-3 hand Amptrol. When in the CC-STICK,
ARC GOUGING or CV-WIRE modes and when a
remote control is connected to the 6-pin Connector,
the auto-sensing circuit automatically switches the
OUTPUT control from control at the welder to remote
control.

When in TOUCH START TIG mode and when a
Amptrol is connected to the 6-Pin Connector, the
OUTPUT dial is used to set the maximum current
range of the CURRENT CONTROL of the Amptrol.

When in the DOWNHILL PIPE mode and when a
remote control is connected to the 6-Pin or 14-Pin
connector, the output control is used to set the max-
imum current range of the remote.

EXAMPLE: When the OUTPUT CONTROL on the
welder is set to 200 amps the current range on the
remote control will be 40-200 amps, rather than the
full 40-300 amps. Any current range that is less than
the full range provides finer current resolution for more
fine tuning of the output.

In the CV-WIRE mode, if the feeder being used has a
voltage control when the wire feeder control cable is
connected to the 14-Pin Connector, the auto-sensing
circuit automatically makes OUTPUT CONTROL inac-
tive and the wire feeder voltage control active.
Otherwise, the OUTPUT CONTROL is used to preset
the voltage.

The 14-pin connector is used to directly connect a
wire feeder control cable. In the CV-WIRE mode,
when the control cable is connected to the 14-pin con-
nector, the auto-sensing circuit automatically makes
the Output Control inactive and the wire feeder volt-
age control active.

NOTE: When a wire feeder with a built in welding
voltage control is connected to the 14-pin connec-
tor, do not connect anything to the 6-pin connec-
tor.

AuXILIARY POWER RECEPTACLES

The auxiliary power capacity of the AIR VANTAGE

®

700 (AU) CUMMINS is 20kVA of 60Hz three phase
power protected by an RCD (Residual Current
Device) and a 3 phase 32 amp circuit breaker. The
auxiliary power capacity in watts equivalent to volt-
amperes at unity power factor.

This model has:

1 x 3 phase and neutral Residual Current Device
(RCD) protection (30mA)

1 x 3 phase 32 amp Circuit Breaker

1 x 3 phase 415 volt 28 amp

2 x 1 phase 15 amp Circuit Breakers

2 x 1 phase 240 volt 15 amp per outlet

Note: The single-phase outlets are from different
phases and cannot be paralleled.

The auxiliary power receptacles should only be used
with three or four wire earthed type plugs or approved
double insulated tools. The current rating of any plug
used with the system must be at least equal to the
current capacity of the associated receptacle.

STANDbY POWER CONNECTIONS

The AIR VANTAGE

®

700 (AU) CUMMINS is suitable

for temporary, standby or emergency power using the
engine manufacturer’s recommended maintenance
schedule.

The AIR VANTAGE

®

700 (AU) CUMMINS can be per-

manently installed as a standby power unit for
415/240 volt (60 Hz). Connections must be made by a
licensed electrician who can determine how the
415/240 VAC power can be adapted to the particular
installation and comply with all applicable electrical
codes. The following information can be used as a
guide by the electrician for most applications.

1. Install an isolation switch between the power com-

pany meter and the premises disconnect.(The AIR
VANTAGE

®

700 (AU) CUMMINS and the power

company supplies must not be connected together).

Switch rating must be the same or greater than the
customer’s premises disconnect and service over
current protection.
