BE SURE THAT ALL INSTALLATION, OPERATION,MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR PROCEDURES AREPERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS.

FOR ENGINE POWEREDEQUIPMENT.

1.a. Turn the engine off before troubleshootingand maintenance work unless themaintenance work requires it to be running.

1.b. Operate engines in open, well-ventilatedareas or vent the engine exhaust fumes outdoors.

1.c. Do not add the fuel near an open flamewelding arc or when the engine is running.Stop the engine and allow it to cool beforerefueling to prevent spilled fuel fromvaporizing on contact with hot engine partsand igniting. Do not spill fuel when fillingtank. If fuel is spilled, wipe it up and do not start engine untilfumes have been eliminated.

1.d. Keep all equipment safety guards, covers and devices in position and in good repair.Keep hands, hair, clothing and tools away from V-belts, gears, fans and all other moving parts when starting, operating orrepairing equipment.

1.e. In some cases it may be necessary to remove safety guards toperform required maintenance. Remove guards only whennecessary and replace them when the maintenance requiringtheir removal is complete. Always use the greatest care whenworking near moving parts.

1.f. Do not put your hands near the engine fan. Do not attempt tooverride the governor or idler by pushing on the throttle controlrods while the engine is running.

1.g. To prevent accidentally starting gasoline engines while turningthe engine or welding generator during maintenance work,disconnect the spark plug wires, distributor cap or magneto wireas appropriate.

1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove the radiatorpressure cap when the engine is hot.

ELECTRIC ANDMAGNETIC FIELDS MAYBE DANGEROUS

2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductorcauses localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding current creates EMF fields around welding cables and welding machines

2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, and welders having a pacemaker should consult their physicianbefore welding.

2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other health effectswhich are now not known.

2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order tominimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:

2.d.1. Route the electrode and work cables together - Securethem with tape when possible.

2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body.

2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode and workcables. If the electrode cable is on your right side, thework cable should also be on your right side.

2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as pos-sible to the area being welded.

2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.

ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL.

3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits areelectrically “hot” when the welder is on. Donot touch these “hot” parts with your bare skin or wet clothing.Wear dry, hole-free gloves to insulate hands.

3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation.Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your full areaof physical contact with work and ground.

In addition to the normal safety precautions, ifwelding must be performed under electricallyhazardous conditions (in damp locations or whilewearing wet clothing; on metal structures such asfloors, gratings or scaffolds; when in crampedpositions such as sitting, kneeling or lying, if thereis a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contactwith the workpiece or ground) use the followingequipment:

• Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder.

• DC Manual (Stick) Welder.

• AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.

3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomatic weldinggun are also electrically “hot”.

3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electricalconnection with the metal being welded. The connection shouldbe as close as possible to the area being welded.

3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical (earth)ground.

3.f. Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable andwelding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replacedamaged insulation.

3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.

3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts of electrodeholders connected to two welders because voltage between thetwo can be the total of the open circuit voltage of bothwelders.

3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protectyourself from a fall should you get a shock.

3.j. Also see It ems 6.c. and 8.

ARC RAYS CAN BURN.

4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover plates to protect youreyes from sparks and the rays of the arc when welding orobserving open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens shouldconform to ANSI Z87. I standards.

4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant materialto protect your skin and that of your helpers from the arc rays.

4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammablescreening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor exposethemselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.

FUMES AND GASESCAN BE DANGEROUS.

5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gaseshazardous to health. Avoid breathing these fumes and gases.When welding, keep your head out of the fume. Use enoughventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep fumes and gasesaway from the breathing zone. When welding hardfacing(see instructions on container or SDS) or on leador cadmium plated steel and other metals orcoatings which produce highly toxic fumes, keepexposure as low as possible and within applicableOSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits using localexhaust or mechanical ventilation unless exposureassessments indicate otherwise. In confinedspaces or in some circumstances, outdoors, arespirator may also be required. Additionalprecautions are also required when welding on galvanized steel.

5. b. The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected byvarious factors including proper use and positioning of theequipment, maintenance of the equipment and the specificwelding procedure and application involved. Worker exposurelevel should be checked upon installation and periodicallythereafter to be certain it is within applicable OSHA PEL andACGIH TLV limits.

5.c. Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vaporscoming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations. Theheat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors to formphosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating products.

5.d. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air and causeinjury or death. Always use enough ventilation, especially inconfined areas, to insure breathing air is safe.

5.e. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions for thisequipment and the consumables to be used, including theSafety Data Sheet (SDS) and follow your employer’s safetypractices. SDS forms are available from your weldingdistributor or from the manufacturer.

5.f. Also see item 1.b.

WELDING AND CUTTINGSPARKS CAN CAUSEFIRE OR EXPLOSION.

6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area. Ifthis is not possible, cover them to prevent the welding sparksfrom starting a fire. Remember that welding sparks and hotmaterials from welding can easily go through small cracks andopenings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding near hydraulic lines.Have a fire extinguisher readily available.

6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site, specialprecautions should be used to prevent hazardous situations.Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSI Standard Z49.1)and the operating information for the equipment being used.

6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode circuit istouching the work or ground. Accidental contact can causeoverheating and create a fire hazard.

6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until theproper steps have been taken to insure that such procedures will not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substances inside.They can cause an explosion even though they have been“cleaned”. For information, purchase “Recommended SafePractices for the Preparation for Welding and Cutting ofContainers and Piping That Have Held Hazardous Substances”,AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society (see address above).

6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting orwelding. They may explode.

6.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oil freeprotective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cufflesstrousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wear ear plugswhen welding out of position or in confined places. Always wearsafety glasses with side shields when in a welding area.

6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the welding areaas practical. Work cables connected to the building framework orother locations away from the welding area increase thepossibility of the welding current passing through lifting chains,crane cables or other alternate circuits. This can create firehazards or overheat lifting chains or cables until they fail.

6.h. Also see item 1.c.

6.I. Read and follow NFPA 51B “Standard for Fire Prevention DuringWelding, Cutting and Other Hot Work”, available from NFPA, 1Batterymarch Park, PO box 9101, Quincy, MA 022690-9101.

6.j. Do not use a welding power source for pipe thawing.

CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IFDAMAGED.

7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders containingthe correct shielding gas for the process usedand properly operating regulators designed forthe gas and pressure used. All hoses, fittings,etc. should be suitable for the application andmaintained in good condition.

7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained toan undercarriage or fixed support.

7.c. Cylinders should be located:

• Away from areas where they may be struck or subjectedto physical damage.

• A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operationsand any other source of heat, sparks, or flame.

7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any otherelectrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.

7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outletwhen opening the cylinder valve.

7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and hand tightexcept when the cylinder is in use or connected for use.

7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gas cylinders,associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l, “Precautions forSafe Handling of Compressed Gases in Cylinders,” available fromthe Compressed Gas Association, 14501 George Carter WayChantilly, VA 20151.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉPour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instructionset les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent dans cemanuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté générales suiv-antes:

Sûreté Pour Soudage A LʼArc1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:

a. Les circuits à lʼélectrode et à la piéce sont sous tensionquand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujourstout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nueou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sanstrous pour isoler les mains.

b. Faire trés attention de bien sʼisoler de la masse quand onsoude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un planchermetallique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une grandepartie du corps peut être en contact avec la masse.

c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câblede soudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr étatdefonctionnement.

d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans lʼeau pour lerefroidir.

e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tensiondes porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à souderparce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être letotal de la tension à vide des deux machines.

f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source decourant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautionspour le porte-électrode sʼapplicuent aussi au pistolet desoudage.

2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se protégercontre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne jamaisenrouler le câble-électrode autour de nʼimporte quelle partiedu corps.

3. Un coup dʼarc peut être plus sévère quʼun coup de soliel,donc:

a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant appropriéainsi quʼun verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du ray-onnement de lʼarc et des projections quand on soude ouquand on regarde lʼarc.

b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger lapeau de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement delʻarc.

c. Protéger lʼautre personnel travaillant à proximité ausoudage à lʼaide dʼécrans appropriés et non-inflammables.

4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de lʼarc desoudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libresde lʼhuile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse, pan-talons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.

5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone desoudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans leszones où lʼon pique le laitier.

6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin deprévenir tout risque dʼincendie dû aux étincelles.

7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé dela masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer unéchauffement et un risque dʼincendie.

8. Sʼassurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possiblede la zone de travail quʼil est pratique de le faire. Si on placela masse sur la charpente de la construction ou dʼautresendroits éloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risquede voir passer le courant de soudage par les chaines de lev-age, câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut provoquerdes risques dʼincendie ou dʼechauffement des chaines et descâbles jusquʼà ce quʼils se rompent.

9. Assurer une ventilation suffisante dans la zone de soudage.Ceci est particuliérement important pour le soudage de tôlesgalvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal quiproduit des fumeés toxiques.

10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenantdʼopérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. Lachaleur ou les rayons de lʼarc peuvent réagir avec les vapeursdu solvant pour produire du phosgéne (gas fortement toxique)ou autres produits irritants.

11. Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements sur la sûreté,voir le code “Code for safety in welding and cutting” CSAStandard W 117.2-1974.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POURLES MACHINES À SOUDER ÀTRANSFORMATEUR ET ÀREDRESSEUR

1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code delʼélectricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dispositifde montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à unebonne mise à la terre.

2. Autant que possible, Iʼinstallation et lʼentretien du poste seronteffectués par un électricien qualifié.

3. Avant de faires des travaux à lʼinterieur de poste, la debranch-er à lʼinterrupteur à la boite de fusibles.

4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leurplace.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONSRead this entire installation section before youstart installation.

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Only qualified personnelshould perform this installa-tion.

• Turn the input power OFF atthe disconnect switch or fusebox before working on thisequipment. Turn off the inputpower to any other equipmentconnected to the welding sys-tem at the disconnect switchor fuse box before working onthe equipment.

• Do not touch electrically hot parts.

• Always connect the Power Wave® grounding lug(located inside the reconnect input access door)to a proper safety (Earth) ground.

-------------------------------------------------------------

SELECT SUITABLE LOCATIONDo not use Power Waves® in outdoor environments. ThePower Wave® power source should not be subjected tofalling water, nor should any parts of it be submerged inwater. Doing so may cause improper operation as wellas pose a safety hazard. The best practice is to keep themachine in a dry, sheltered area.

Do not mount the Power Wave® over combustible sur-faces. Where there is a combustible surface directlyunder stationary or fixed electrical equipment, thatsurface shall be covered with a steel plate at least.060" (1.6mm) thick, which shall extend not less than5.90" (150mm) beyond the equipment on all sides.

Place the welder where clean cooling air can freelycirculate in through the rear louvers and out throughthe case sides and bottom. Dirt, dust, or any foreignmaterial that can be drawn into the welder should bekept at a minimum. Do not use air filters on the airintake because the air flow will be restricted. Failure toobserve these precautions can result in excessiveoperating temperatures and nuisance shutdowns.

Machines above code 10500 are equipped with F.A.N.(fan as needed) circuitry. The fan runs whenever theoutput is enabled, whether under loaded or open cir-cuit conditions. The fan also runs for a period of time(approximately 5 minutes) after the output is disabled,to ensure all components are properly cooled.

INPUT CONNECTION

Only a qualified electrician should connect theinput leads to the Power Wave®. Connectionsshould be made in accordance with all local andnational electrical codes and the connection dia-gram located on the inside of the reconnect/inputaccess door of the machine. Failure to do so mayresult in bodily injury or death.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use a three-phase supply line. A 1.75 inch (45 mm)diameter access hole for the input supply is located onthe upper left case back next to the input access door.Connect L1, L2, L3 and ground according to the InputSupply Connection Diagram decal located on theinside of the input access door or refer to Figure A.1 .

INPUT FUSE AND SUPPLY WIRE CONSIDERATIONSRefer to the Technical Specifications at the beginningof this Installation section for recommended fuse andwire sizes. Fuse the input circuit with the recommend-ed super lag fuse or delay type breakers (also called“inverse time” or “thermal/magnetic” circuit breakers).Choose an input and grounding wire size according tolocal or national electrical codes. Using fuses or circuitbreakers smaller than recommended may result in“nuisance” shut-offs from welder inrush currents, evenif the machine is not being used at high currents.

INPUT VOLTAGE CHANGE OVER(FOR MULTIPLE INPUT VOLTAGEMACHINES ONLY)Welders are shipped connected for the highest inputvoltage listed on the rating plate. To move this con-nection to a different input voltage, see the diagramlocated on the inside of the input access door. If themain reconnect switch or link position is placed in thewrong position, the welder will not produce outputpower.

If the Auxiliary (A) lead is placed in the wrong position,there are two possible results. If the lead is placed in aposition higher than the applied line voltage, thewelder may not come on at all. If the Auxiliary (A) leadis placed in a position lower than the applied line volt-age, the welder will not come on, and the two circuitbreakers in the reconnect area will open. If thisoccurs, turn off the input voltage, properly connect the(A) lead, reset the breakers, and try again.

WELDING WITH MULTIPLE PowerWaves®

Special care must be taken when more than onePower Wave® is welding simultaneously on a sin-gle part. Arc blow and arc interference may occuror be magnified.

Each power source requires a work lead from thework stud to the welding fixture. Do not combine all ofthe work leads into one lead. Performing welding inthe direction away from the work leads. Connect all ofthe work sense leads from each power source to thework piece at the end of the joint.

TWO Power Wave® S

For the best results when pulse welding, set the wiresize and wire feed speed the same for all the PowerWave® s.

When these parameters are identical, the pulsing fre-quency will be the same, helping to stabilize the arcs.

Every welding gun requires a separate shielding gasregulator for proper flow rate and shielding gas cover-age.

Do not attempt to supply shielding gas for two or moreguns from only one regulator.

If an anti-spatter system is in use then each gun musthave its own anti-spatter system. (See Figure A.2.)

ELECTRODE AND WORK CABLECONNECTIONSConnect a work lead of sufficient size and length (PerTable 1) between the proper output terminal on thepower source and the work. Be sure the connection tothe work makes tight metal-to-metal electrical contact.To avoid interference problems with other equipmentand to achieve the best possible operation, route allcables directly to the work and wire feeder. Avoidexcessive lengths and do not coil excess cable.

Minimum work and electrode cable sizes are as follows:TABLE 1 (For cable length up to 100 ft, or 30 meters)CURRENT (60% Duty Cycle) MINIMUM COPPER

400 Amps 2/0 (67mm2)500 Amps 3/0 (85mm2)600 Amps 3/0 (85mm2)

When using inverter type power sources like thePower Waves®, use the largest welding (electrode andground) cables that are practical. At least 2/0 copperwire - even if the average output current would notnormally require it. When pulsing, the pulse currentcan reach very high levels. Voltage drops can becomeexcessive, leading to poor welding characteristics, ifundersized welding cables are used.

NOTE: K1796 coaxial welding cable is recommendedto reduce the cable inductance in long cable lengths.This is especially important when Pulse welding up to350 amps.

CABLE INDUCTANCE, AND ITS EFFECTSON PULSE WELDING

For Pulse Welding processes, cable inductance willcause the welding performance to degrade. For thetotal welding loop length less than 50ft.(15m), tradi-tional welding cables may be used without any effectson welding performance. For the total welding looplength greater than 50ft.(15m), the K1796 CoaxialWelding Cables are recommended. The welding looplength is defined as the total of electrode cable length(A) + work cable length (B) + work length (C) (SeeFigure A.3).

For long work piece lengths, a sliding ground shouldbe considered to keep the total welding loop lengthless than 50ft.(15m). (See Figure A.4.)

FOR A DETAILED CONNECTION DIAGRAM USINGK1796 COAXIAL CABLE (SEE PIN, LEAD CON-NECTOR IN DIAGRAM SECTION)

When pulsing, the pulse current can reach veryhigh levels. Voltage drops can become excessive,leading to poor welding characteristics, if under-sized welding cables are used.------------------------------------------------------------------------Most welding applications run with the electrode being posi-tive (+). For those applications, connect one end of the elec-trode cable to the positive (+) output stud on the powersource (located beneath the spring loaded output cover nearthe bottom of the case front). Connect the other end of theelectrode cable to the wire drive feed plate using the stud,lockwasher, and nut provided on the wire drive feed plate.The electrode cable lug must be against the feed plate. Besure the connection to the feed plate makes tight metal-to-metal electrical contact. The electrode cable should be sizedaccording to the specifications given in the work cable con-nections section. Connect a work lead from the negative (-)power source output stud to the work piece. The work piececonnection must be firm and secure, especially if pulse weld-ing is planned. Excessive voltage drops caused by poor workpiece connections often result in unsatisfactory welding per-formance.

VOLTAGE SENSINGThe best arc performance occurs when the PowerWaves® has accurate data about the arc conditions.Depending upon the process, inductance within theelectrode and work lead cables can influence the volt-age apparent at the contact tip. Voltage sense leadsimprove the accuracy of the arc conditions and canhave a dramatic effect on performance.

If the voltage sensing is enabled but the senseleads are missing or improperly connected,extremely high welding outputs may occur.

Do not tightly bundle the work sense lead to the worklead.

The ELECTRODE sense lead (67) is built into theK1795 control cable. The WORK sense lead (21) con-nects to the Power Wave® at the four-pin connectorlocated underneath the output stud cover. Enable the voltage sense leads as follows:

POWER WAVE® / POWER FEEDWIRE FEEDERINTERCONNECTIONSConnect the control cable between the power sourceand wire feeder. The wire feeder connection on therobotic Power Waves® is located under the springloaded output cover, near the bottom of the case front.The control cable is keyed and polarized to preventimproper connect.

For convenience sake, the electrode and controlcables can be routed behind the left or right strainreliefs (under the spring loaded output cover), andalong the channels formed into the base of the PowerWave®, out the back of the channels, and then to thewire feeder.

Output connections on some Power Waves® are madevia 1/2-13 threaded output studs located beneath thespring loaded output cover at the bottom of the casefront. On machines which carry the CE mark, outputconnections are made via Twist-Mate receptacles,which also located beneath the spring loaded outputcover at the bottom of the case front.

A work lead must be run from the negative (-) powersource output connection to the work piece. The workpiece connection must be firm and secure, especiallyif pulse welding is planned.

Excessive voltage drops at the work piece con-nection often result in unsatisfactory pulse weld-ing performance.------------------------------------------------------------------------

CONTROL CABLE SPECIFICATIONSIt is recommended that genuine Lincoln control cablesbe used at all times. Lincoln cables are specificallydesigned for the communication and power needs ofthe Power Wave® / Power Feed® system.

The use of non-standard cables, especially inlengths greater than 25 ft(7.6m), can lead to com-munication problems (system shutdowns), poormotor acceleration (poor arc starting) and lowwire driving force (wire feeding problems).------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lincoln control cables are copper 22 conductor cablein a SO-type rubber jacket.

DUTY CYCLE AND TIME PERIODThe Power Feed® wire feeders are capable of weldingat a 100% duty cycle (continuous welding). The powersource will be the limiting factor in determining systemduty cycle capability. Note that the duty cycle is basedupon a ten minute period. A 60% duty cycle repre-sents 6 minutes of welding and 4 minutes of idling in aten minute period.

B-3OPERATIONB-3

GENERAL DESCRIPTIONThe Power Wave® power source is designed to be apart of a modular, multi-process welding system.Depending on configuration, it can support constantcurrent, constant voltage, and pulse welding modes.

The Power Wave® power source is designed to beused with the family of Power Feed wire feeders,operating as a system. Each component in the systemhas special circuitry to "talk with" the other systemcomponents, so each component (power source, wirefeeder, electrical accessories) knows what the other isdoing at all times. The components communicate withArc-Link.

Robotic systems can communicate with other industri-al machines via DeviceNET. The result is highlyintrigued and flexible welding cell.

The Power Wave® 655/r is a high performance, digital-ly controlled inverter welding power source capable ofcomplex, high-speed waveform control. Properlyequipped, it can support the GMAW, GMAW-P,FCAW, SMAW, GTAW and CAC-A processes. It car-ries an output rating of either 650 amps, 44 volts (at100% duty cycle) and 800 amps, 44 volts (at 60%duty cycle).

If the duty cycle is exceeded, a thermostat will shut offthe output until the machine cools to a reasonableoperating temperature.

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES ANDEQUIPMENT

RECOMMENDED PROCESSESThe Power Wave® 655/r can be set up in a number ofconfigurations, some requiring optional equipment orwelding programs. Each machine is factory prepro-grammed with multiple welding procedures, typicallyincluding GMAW, GMAW-P, FCAW, GTAW, CAC-A,and SMAW for a variety of materials, including mildsteel, stainless steel, cored wires, and aluminum.

The Power Wave® 655/r can be configured for eitherrobotic or semi-automatic use.

CONSTANT VOLTAGE WELDING

For each wire feed speed, a corresponding voltage ispreprogrammed into the machine through special soft-ware at the factory. The preprogrammed voltage is thebest average voltage for a given wire feed speed.With synergic programs, when the wire feed speedchanges the Power Wave® will automatically adjustthe voltage correspondingly.

Wave control adjusts the inductance of the wave-shape. (This adjustment is often referred to as "pinch".Inductance is inversely proportional pinch.)Increasing wave control greater than 0 results in aharsher, colder arc while decreasing the wave controlto less than 0 provides a softer, hotter arc. (SeeFigure B.2)

PULSE WELDING

Pulse welding procedures are set by controlling anoverall "arc length" variable. When pulse welding, thearc voltage is highly dependent upon the waveform.The peak current, back ground current, rise time, falltime and pulse frequency all affect the voltage. Theexact voltage for a given wire feed speed can only bepredicted when all the pulsing waveform parametersare known. Using a preset voltage becomes impracti-cal, and instead the arc length is set by adjusting"trim".

Trim adjusts the arc length and ranges from 0.50 to1.50, with a nominal value of 1.00. Trim values greaterthan 1.00 increase the arc length, while values lessthan 1.00 decrease the arc length.

Most pulse welding programs are synetic. As the wirefeed speed is adjusted, the Power Wave® will auto-matically recalculate the waveform parameters tomaintain similar arc properties.

POWER WAVE® 655/R

The Power Wave® utilizes "adaptive control" to com-pensate for changes in electrical stick-out while weld-ing. (Electrical stick-out is the distance from the con-tact tip to the work piece.) The Power Wave® wave-forms are optimized for a 0.75" (19mm) stick-out. Theadaptive behavior supports a range of stinkpots from0.50" (13mm) to 1.25" (32mm). At very low or highwire feed speeds, the adaptive range may be less dueto reaching physical limitations of the welding process.

Wave control in pulse programs usually adjusts thefocus or shape of the arc. Wave control values greaterthan 0 increase the pulse frequency while decreasingthe background current, resulting in a tight, stiff arcbest for high speed sheet metal welding. Wave con-trol values less than 0 decrease the pulse frequencywhile increasing the background current, for a soft arcgood for out-of-position welding. (See Figure B.3)

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Only Qualified personnel shouldperform this maintenance.

• Turn the input power OFF at thedisconnect switch or fuse boxbefore working on this equipment.

• Do not touch electrically hot parts.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE Routine maintenance consists of periodicallyblowing out the machine, using a low pressureairstream, to remove accumulated dust and dirtfrom the intake and outlet louvers, and the cool-ing channels in the machine.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCECalibration of the Power Wave® 655/R is critical toits operation. Generally speaking the calibrationwill not need adjustment. However, neglected orimproperly calibrated machines may not yield sat-isfactory weld performance. To ensure optimalperformance, the calibration of output Voltageand Current should be checked yearly.

CALIBRATION SPECIFICATIONOutput Voltage and Current are calibrated at thefactory. Generally speaking the machine calibrationwill not need adjustment. However, if the weld per-formance changes, or the yearly calibration checkreveals a problem, contact the Lincoln ElectricCompany for the calibration software utility.

The calibration procedure itself requires the useof a grid, and certified actual meters for voltageand current. The accuracy of the calibration willbe directly affected by the accuracy of the mea-suring equipment you use. Detailed instructionsare available with the utility.
