Description
These Campbell Hausfeld electric arc (stick) welding machines run on 230 volt, single phase input power. These welders are equipped with infinite amperage control to accurately select the proper current needed for various welding conditions. Internal components are thermostatically protected.
These welding systems are designed for use with the Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) process. As delivered from the factory, these welders can weld with up to 5/32 inch diameter electrodes.
Model WS4369 is an AC output welder. Model WS4469 is an AC and DC output welder. There are two levels of AC output on each machine. The cable with the ground clamp is inserted into the AC COM socket and the cable with the electrode holder is inserted into the AC LO or AC HI socket, depending on the output current range needed. The WS4469 has two extra sockets labeled DC+ and
