AC Auto Balance | ® Controls — |
Automatically sets the optimal cleaning vs. penetration level for aluminum welding!
What Is It?
When aluminum welding, the positive (+) portion of the AC welding amperage cleans the oxides from the aluminum surface. The neg- ative
Patented AC Auto Balance® automatically sets the ratio of
cleaning action (+) versus penetration
Manual balance control provides the flexibility to customize the arc to your preference.

PERFORMANCE
•Excellent stick welding performance.
—Weld steel, stainless and low allow metals with ease.
—Weld sheet metal, pipe and heavy plate.
—Weld with Lincoln® Blue Max® Stainless, Excalibur® Low Hydrogen and Fleetweld® 5P welding electrodes.
•Wider output range — for maximum flexibility:
—
•More amperage than nearest competitor at 40% duty cycle — 25 amps more!
•Lower input current draw compared to nearest competitor — up to 10% less current with 40% more duty cycle.
AC Auto Balance® is especially useful on
critical aluminum applications.
