RECOMMENDED PROCESSES
The Power Wave ® Advanced Module is recommended for
all process supported by the host power source including,
but not limited to SMAW, GMAW, GMAW-P, GMAW-STT,
GTAW.
PROCESS LIMITATIONS
The Advanced Module is rated for 300 amps, 32 volts at a
100% duty cycle and 350 amps, 34 volts at a 40% duty
cycle rating. When connected to an S500 (CE) or R500
power source, the power source will acknowledge that the
Advanced module is connected and reduce the output capa-
bility to match that of the S350(CE) or R350.
The Power Wave ® Advanced Module is designed to protect
itself from the excessive transient voltages associated with
highly inductive weld circuits. These high inductance circuits
may result in unsatisfactory performance, but will not dam-
age the module.
The Advanced Module is designed to be connected with
the proper polarity. If a negative electrode polarity
process such as Innershield is required, the switch will
automatically reconfigure the output of the Advanced
Module. If the input of the Advanced Module is reversed,
the module will protect itself and block output capability.
EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
The Power Wave ® Advanced Module is intended for
use with compatible medium range “S” – series Power
Wave power sources such as the S350 and S500.
