The newest edition to Lincoln Electric?s (Cleveland, OH) popular Power Wave® family ? the C300 ? is a portable, multi-process power source specifically designed with high-end functionality for a wide variety of materials and applications. It is ideal for applications and materials where arc performance is critical ? including aluminum, stainless steel and nickel. The Power Wave C300 provides one machine for nearly every weld job imaginable including production welding, construction, aerospace, automotive repair, general fabrication or a training environment.
The Power Wave C300 features patent-pending PowerConnect? Technology that allows you to automatically switch from 200-600 volts, 50 or 60 hertz and single- or three-phase welding with no manual reconnect. This technology provides a constant welding output with an incredible input line voltage compensation range of up to +43 percent and down to -60 percent when used on 460 VAC input. The C300 also utilizes the latest patent pending Tribrid? Power Module that offers an industry leading 88 percent efficiency at 250 amps and a power factor of 0.97 for low operating costs.
The Power Wave C300?s high-speed iArc? digital controls are more than 90 times faster than the previous generation, with Ethernet included as a standard feature. The advanced interface allows the user machine to customize the machine?s processes and settings for multiple operators. The C300 features eight memory locations to easily and quickly recall procedures with the ability to lock in operator limits to ensure quality.
Included with the C300 is the new Production Monitoring? 2 software as a standard feature that enables weld data to be monitored and stored. It?s Waveform Control Technology® provides industry leading arc performance focused on high quality and increased productivity and allows users to choose from RapidArc®, Power Mode® and future applications that can be downloaded free of charge from www.powerwavesoftware.com.
Adapting to almost any environment, the Power Wave C300?s new compact style and design are IP23 rated and designed to hold up to almost any environment. Weighing just 91 lb, the size offers users a portable, easy to transport system, easy to take with them even for off-site welding applications.
