FlexibleDesign - Designed for simple, seamless integration with the
FANUC®RoboticsR-30iA Controller, or use as a separated configuration
tomeet your weld cell requirements.
Qualityand Consistent Welding Results - Lincoln’s Waveform Control
Technology®givesyou the ability to select the right waveform for each
application– that means the arc has been optimized for each wire type
andsize for exceptionally smooth arc performance.
HighPerformance Digital Communications - High speed digital
communicationvia ArcLink®protocol, a CAN connection or now the
ArcLink®XT™,the ArcLink®protocol can be communicated over an
Ethernetcable.
Bestin Class Power - 10-420 amps output delivers the power you need
fora wide range of processes and materials, with no derating for pulse
waveforms.
Readyto Perform - Auxiliaryoutlet offers flexibilityto add fume extraction,
watercooler, computer or other accessories quickly and easily.

DESIGN FEATURES

• Industry best 120 kHz inverter:
- Operates at a high efficiency and (.95) power factor at rated output.
- Capable of operating from a universal input voltage (208 to 575 volts).
• Fan-As-Needed™ (F.A.N.) - reduces power consumption and the amount
ofdebris that gets drawn into the machine by shutting the fan down
whenit is not needed.
• Engineered Power Distribution:
-Single power drop saves time and cost.
- 3 phase input power supplied to robot
controllervia dedicated reconnect block.
- 115VAC, 15 amp capacity auxiliary duplex receptacle to power
optionalwater cooler, fume extraction, grinder, and computer.
• Recessed connection panel for protection against accidental impact.
• External access to controller mounting hardware.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

• Removable left side panel permits easy access to internal components
forroutine maintenance or repair, even when integrated in a robotic cell.
• Panel mounted status LED indicators allow for quick and easy
troubleshooting.
• Lockable on/off power switch on power source for controller/robot for
maintenancepurposes (power must be disconnected at the wall).
• Mechanical connection to R-30iA Controller accessible from exterior
ofPower Wave®i400 for easy removal of controller.
• Full support of Lincoln Electric Diagnostic Utility software for easy
troubleshootingthrough the Teach Pendant.
Power Wave®i400 What is Coaxial TransformerTechnology™?
CoaxialTransformer Technology™ eliminates inefficiency and power
loss.Regardless of the size(power level) acoaxial transformer has
superiorcoupling and efficiency. This is obtained through the coaxial
orientationof the primary and secondar y windings.
Thebenefits for the customer include:
•Higher power capabilities with a less
complexdesign.
•Higher efficiency (reduced energy costs).
•Higher reliability (lower stresses on components).
•Proven reliability.
