General Physical Description
The POWER FEED® 25M is a premium portable wire feeder for use with the Power Wave products. The wire feeder features a 2 roll MAXtrac™ drive coupled to a powerful motor for driving wire through difficult situa- tions. The
The heart of the POWER FEED® 25M is the MAXtrac™ drive. The patented features on the wire drive offer
The POWER FEED® 25M continues Lincoln’s lead role of environmental protection for electronics. P.C. boards are potted in epoxy and electrical connections are protected with dielectric grease. Noise suppres- sion components protect the POWER FEED® 25M from stray signals and keep the feeder from interfering with other digital equipment.
General Functional Description
The POWER FEED® 25M is best suited for applica- tions were quality welds are expected. Combined with a Power Wave power source, the POWER FEED® 25M is great for aluminum, nickel, alloy and other difficult to weld materials. Easy to use controls make it a great feeder for consistent results with mild steel applications too.
DUTY CYCLE
The POWER FEED® 25M is rated for 500 amps, 60% duty cycle and 400 amps, 100% duty cycle. The duty cycle is based on a 10 minute cycle.
For example, when welding at 500 amps, the POWER FEED® 25M may run 6 minutes and must idle for 4 minutes.
