PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

PRODUCT SUMMARY

The Power Wave® S350 is a portable multi-process power source with high-end functionality capable of Stick, DC TIG, MIG, Pulsed MIG and Flux-Cored welding. It is ideal for a wide variety of materials including aluminum, stainless, and nickel — where arc performance is critical.

The Power Wave® S350 is designed to be a very flex- ible welding system. Like existing Power Waveʼs, the software based architecture allows for future upgrade- ability. One significant change from the current range of Power Wave units is that the Ethernet communica- tion feature is standard on the Power Wave® S350 which allows for effortless software upgrades through Powerwavesoftware.com. The Ethernet communica- tion also gives the Power Wave® S350 the ability to run Production Monitoring™ 2. Also a Devicenet option which will allow the Power Wave® S350 to be used in a wide range of configurations. Also, the Power Wave® S350 is being designed to be compati- ble with future advanced welding modules like STT

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES AND EQUIPMENT

The Power Wave® S350 is recommended for semiautomat- ic welding, and may also be suitable for basic hard automa- tion applications. The Power Wave® S350 can be set up in a number of configurations, some requiring optional equip- ment or welding programs.

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

The Power Wave® S350 is designed to be compatible with the current range of Power Feed™ systems including future versions of ArcLink® feeders.

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES

The Power Wave S350 is a high speed, multi-process power source capable of regulating the current, volt- age, or power of the welding arc. With an output range of 5 to 350 amperes, it supports a number of standard processes including synergic GMAW, GMAW-P, FCAW, FCAW-SS, SMAW, GTAW and GTAW-P on various materials especially steel, aluminum and stainless.

PROCESS LIMITATIONS

The software based weld tables of the Power Wave S350 limit the process capability within the output range and the safe limits of the machine. In general the processes will be limited to .030-.052 solid steel wire, .030 -.045 stainless wire, .035 -1/16 cored wire, and .035 - 1/16 Aluminum wire.

EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS

Only ArcLink compatible semiautomatic wire feeders and users interfaces may be used. If other Lincoln wire feeders or non-Lincoln wire feeders are used there will be limited process capability and perfor- mance and features will be limited.
