DESIGN FEATURES
Loaded with Standard Features
• Multiple process DC output range: 5 - 300 Amps.
• 200 – 600 VAC, 1/3 phase, 50-60Hz input power.
• New and Improved Line Voltage Compensation
holds the output constant over wide input voltage
fluctuations.
• Utilizes next generation microprocessor control,
based on the ArcLink ® platform.
• State of the art power electronics technology, yields
superior welding capability.
• Electronic over current protection.
• Input over voltage protection.
• F.A.N. (fan as needed). Cooling fan runs when the
output is energized 15 seconds following the strike of
the welding arc and will continue to run 5 minutes
following the end of the weld.
• Thermostatically protected for safety and reliability.
• Recessed connection panel for protection against
accidental impact.
• Ethernet connectivity via IP-67 rated ODVA compli-
ant RJ-45 connector.
• Panel mounted Status and Thermal LED indicators
facilitate quick and easy troubleshooting.
• Potted PC boards for enhanced ruggedness/reliabili-
ty.
• Enclosure reinforced with heavy duty aluminum
extrusions for mechanical toughness.
• Push-Pull ready for welding aluminum.
• Remote control/Foot amptrol ready.
• Waveform Control Technology™ for good weld
appearance and low spatter, even when welding
nickel alloys.
• 8 memories for easily selecting procedures.
• Full sequence control for tailoring the weld from start
to end.
• Patented MAXTRAC™ 2 roll drive system.
• Patent pending drive rolls improve traction on solid
wire by up to 20%.
• The precision machined, rigid aluminum alloy frame
results in maximum drive roll clamping pressure.
• Patented split wire guides fully support the wire and
virtually eliminate birdnesting.
• No tools required to change the drive rolls and wire
guides.
POWER WAVE ® C300
• Patent pending dual spring pressure arms have
sensitivity for feeding soft wires without crushing
them, and have plenty of compression force for
feeding solid or stiff wires.
• All gear driven rolls for more feeding force.
• Changeable gun bushings easily accept guns from
other manufacturers.
• Brass-to-brass connections between the electrode
connection and the gun minimize voltage drop vari-
ations, resulting in consistent arc performance all
day, every day.
• Powerful, quiet motor with integrated tachometer for
accurate WFS regulation.
