			Power Wave System Interface provides the

		K2282-1	to four different arcs to a common carrier frequen-
			cy, and control the phase angle between them to
			reduce the effects of "Arc Blow".

Notes:

1."Recommended Quantity" assumes one power source per arc. Multiple power sources may be used to increase the output capacity per arc (see "Connection Diagram - Parallel Machines").

2.Control Cable connections only required at the Master of each parallel power source arc grouping.

3.Can be expanded to 4 or more arcs (Note: The System Interface can currently only synchronize up to four AC arc groupings).

4.The triple arc system is an economical breakpoint for a PLC Interface. It does not preclude the use of a PLC for single or tandem arc systems, nor PF-10A's from being used to control multiple arc systems with greater than two arcs.

5.Cables can be connected end to end to extend length.
