PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

General Physical Description

The POWER FEED™ 10A CONTROLLER is a user interface. The control is used to set all welding para- meters and control any travel mechanisms. High- speed digital cables connect the control, wire drive, and the Power Wave power source together.

The POWER FEED™ 10A CONTROLLER is a self- contained control box designed to control the entire weld cell at one location. The control uses bright digi- tal displays, encoders, and heavy-duty pushbuttons designed for every-day industrial use.

The Mode Select Panel utilizes alphanumeric displays for advanced text messaging providing the end user with an intuitive interface allowing for easy set up and real-time control of all welding parameters.

A six button Memory Panel has been included which provides easy storage and recall of stored welding parameters.

The Switch Panel can be removed from the control box and turned into a Pendant for remote control near the arc.

General Functional Description

The POWER FEED™ 10A CONTROLLER is one of the most versatile user interfaces ever created. Easy to use features make it a snap to adjust the arc for specific preferences.

The new Mode Select Panel brightly displays essen- tial welding information. Use the Mode Select Panel to quickly adjust weld settings, arc starting parame- ters, arc end parameters and set-up information.

The Memory Panel allows for up to six weld sched- ules to be stored and quickly recalled. The Memory Panel along with the Mode Select Panel allows for multiple levels of limits and lockouts.

Digital communications to the power source provide the most accurate and reliable operation possible.

The POWER FEED™ 10A CONTROLLER is one of the first user interfaces with an infrared red (IR) port. Transferring weld settings from one user interface to another is accomplished with a common Palm com- puter.

When the POWER FEED™ 10A CONTROLLER is coupled to a Power Wave welding power source, the result is a welding system with the best arc perfor- mance on the market.

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES

The POWER FEED™ 10A CONTROLLER is best suited for submerged arc welding.
