POWER WAVE® 405M – Semi-Automatic Operation

POWER WAVE® 405M can only be used with ArcLink compatible Power Feed M semi-automatic wire feeders. In addition, the Power Feed M semi- automatic wire feeders may require optional equip- ment to access certain weld modes in the POWER WAVE®. Other models of Lincoln feeders, or any models of non-Lincoln wire feeders, cannot be used.

All welding programs and procedures are selected through the Power Feed M semi-automatic user inter- face

REQUIRED EQUIPMENT

Any ArcLink compatible semi-automatic wire feeding equipment. Specifically, the semi-automatic Power Feed M family.

LIMITATIONS

•Only ArcLink compatible Power Feed M semi- automatic wire feeders and users interfaces may be used. Other Lincoln wire feeders or non-Lincoln wire feeders cannot be used.

•POWER WAVE® 405M Output Limitations

The POWER WAVE® 405M will support maximum average output current of 350 Amps @ 60% duty cycle.

DUTY CYCLE AND TIME PERIOD

The duty cycle is based upon a ten minute period. A 60% duty cycle represents 6 minutes of welding and 4 minutes of idling in a ten minute period.

CASE FRONT CONTROLS

All operator controls and adjustments are located on the case front of the POWER WAVE®. (See Figure

B.1)

1.POWER SWITCH: Controls input power to the

POWER WAVE®.

2.STATUS LIGHT: A two color light that indicates system errors. Normal operation is a steady green light. Error conditions are indicated, per

Troubleshooting E Section in this Manual.

NOTE: The POWER WAVE® 405M status light will flash green, and sometimes red and green, for up to one minute when the machine is first turned on. This is a normal situation as the machine goes through a self test at power up.

3.HIGH TEMPERATURE LIGHT (thermal overload): A yellow light that comes on when an over temper- ature situation occurs. Output is disabled and the fan continues to run, until the machine cools down. When cool, the light goes out and output is enabled.

4.CB1 WIRE FEEDER CIRCUIT BREAKER: Protects 40 volt DC wire feeder power supply.
