AIR VANTAGE ® 650 CUMMINS
A-6
REMOTE CONTROL
The AIR VANTAGE ® 650 CUMMINS is equipped with
a 6-pin and a 14-pin connector. The 6-pin connector is
for connecting the K857 or K857-1 Remote Control or
for TIG welding, the K870 foot Amptrol or the K963-3
hand Amptrol. When in the CC-STICK, ARC GOUG-
ING or CV-WIRE modes and when a remote control is
connected to the 6-pin Connector, the auto-sensing
circuit automatically switches the OUTPUT control
from control at the welder to remote control.
When in TOUCH START TIG mode and when a
Amptrol is connected to the 6-Pin Connector, the
OUTPUT dial is used to set the maximum current
range of the CURRENT CONTROL of the Amptrol.
When in the DOWNHILL PIPE mode and when a
remote control is connected to the 6-Pin or 14-Pin
connector, the output control is used to set the max-
imum current range of the remote.
EXAMPLE: When the OUTPUT CONTROL on the
welder is set to 200 amps the current range on the
remote control will be 40-200 amps, rather than the
full 40-300 amps. Any current range that is less than
the full range provides finer current resolution for more
fine tuning of the output.
In the CV-WIRE mode, if the feeder being used has a
voltage control when the wire feeder control cable is
connected to the 14-Pin Connector, the auto-sensing
circuit automatically makes OUTPUT CONTROL inac-
tive and the wire feeder voltage control active.
Otherwise, the OUTPUT CONTROL is used to preset
the voltage.
The 14-pin connector is used to directly connect a
wire feeder control cable. In the CV-WIRE mode,
when the control cable is connected to the 14-pin con-
nector, the auto-sensing circuit automatically makes
the Output Control inactive and the wire feeder volt-
age control active.
NOTE: When a wire feeder with a built in welding
voltage control is connected to the 14-pin connec-
tor, do not connect anything to the 6-pin connec-
tor.

AUXILIARY POWER RECEPTACLES
Start the engine and set the “IDLER” control switch to the
“High Idle” mode. Voltage is now correct at the recepta-
cles for auxiliary power. This must be done before a
tripped GFCI can be reset properly. See the MAINTE-
NANCE section for more detailed information on testing
and resetting the GFCI.
The auxiliary power of the AIR VANTAGE ® 650 CUM-
MINS consists of two 20 Amp-120 VAC (5-20R)
duplex with GFCI protection, one 50 Amp 120/240
VAC (14-50R) receptacle and one 50 Amp 240VAC
Three-Phase (15-50R) receptacle.
The auxiliary power capacity is 12,000 Watts
Continuous of 60 Hz, single phase power. The auxil-
iary power capacity rating in watts is equivalent to
volt-amperes at unity power factor. The max permissi-
ble current of the 240 VAC output is 50 amps.
The 240 VAC output can be split to provide two sepa-
rate 120 VAC outputs with a max permissible current
of 50 Amps per output to two separate 120 VAC
branch circuits (these circuits cannot be paralleled).
Output voltage is within ± 10% at all loads up to rated
capacity.
The Three-Phases auxiliary power capacity is 20,000
watts continuous. The maximum current is 48 amps.
120 V DUPLEX RECEPTACLE AND GFCI
A GFCI protects the two 120V auxiliary power.
A GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is a device to
protect against electric shock should a piece of defective
equipment connected to it develop a ground fault. If this
situation should occur, the GFCI will trip, removing volt-
age from the output of the receptacle. If a GFCI is tripped
see the MAINTENANCE section for detailed information
on testing and resetting it. A GFCI should be properly
tested at least once every month.
The 120 V auxiliary power receptacles should only be
used with three wire grounded type plugs or approved
double insulated tools with two wire plugs. The current
rating of any plug used with the system must be at
least equal to the current capacity of the associated
receptacle.
