PRODUCT SUMMARY

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 is a high performance, digitally controlled inverter welding power source. It is capable of producing a variable frequency and ampli- tude AC output, DC positive output, or DC negative output without the need for external reconnection. It utilizes complex, high-speed waveform control to sup- port a variety of constant current and constant voltage welding modes in each of its output configurations.

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 power source is designed to be a part of a modular welding system. Each welding arc may be driven by a single machine, or by a number of machines in parallel. In multiple arc applications the phase angle and frequency of differ- ent machines can be synchronized with the use of an external System Interface to improve performance and reduce the effects of arc blow.

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 is primarily designed to interface with compatible ArcLink equipment. However, it can also communicate with other industri- al machines and monitoring equipment via DeviceNet, or Ethernet. The result is a highly integrated and flexi- ble welding cell.

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 is designed for sub- merged arc welding (SAW). Due to its modular design the Power Wave AC/DC can operate on either single arc or multiple arc applications. Each machine is fac- tory preprogrammed with multiple welding procedures to support all types of submerged arc welding. The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 carries an output rating of 1000 amps, 44 volts (at 100% duty cycle). If higher currents are required machines can be easily paral- leled.

PROCESS LIMITATIONS

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 is suitable only for the processes listed.

Do not use Power Wave AC/DC 1000 for pipe thaw- ing.

EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS

The Power Wave AC/DC 1000 is not to be used in outdoor environments.

Operating Temperature Range is 32°F to 104°F(0°C to +40°C).

Only the ArcLink Power Feed 10S series wire feeders and Power Feed 10A controller may be used in a standard system. Other Lincoln or non-Lincoln wire feeders can only be used with custom interfaces.

The Power Wave AC/DC will support a maximum average output current of 1000 Amps at 100% Duty Cycle.
