GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The INVERTEC® 100S is a 100 amp arc welding power source which utilizes single phase input power to produce constant current output. The welding response of this Inverter has been optimized for stick (SMAW) welding.

WELDING CAPAbILITY

The INVERTEC® 100S is rated at 80 amps, 23.2 volts, at 20% duty cycle on a ten minute basis. It is capable of higher duty cycles at lower output currents. If the duty cycle is exceeded, a thermal protector will shut off the output until the machine cools. See Table A.1 in the INSTALLATION Section for other rated out- puts.

The INVERTEC® 100S is recommended for the fol- lowing Electrode Types and Diameters:
