GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Square W ave TIG 355 is a constant current, single range square wave AC/DC TIG (GT AW) arc welding power source with built-in high fr equency stabilization. It also has stick (SMAW) capability . The Square W ave TIG 355 gives the operator full control of the welding current plus the ability to pr eset weld and start cur- ren[...]

• 115 V olt receptacle with 15 amp circuit br eaker . • 220 V olt European (Schuko) type receptacle with 2 amp circuit br eaker for water coolers (50/60Hz machines only). • Excellent arc starting and stability up thr ough 400 amps. • High resistance to AC arc r ectification. • No tungsten spitting within current range of elec- trode. • [...]

CONTROLS AND SETTINGS UPPER CASE FRONT CONTROLS Controls on the upper case fr ont control panel ar e used for manual TIG and stick welding. Their func- tions are described below . Some controls ar e active in both TIG and stick welding, while others are active in TIG only . Refer to Figure B.1 for contr ol locations. OPERA TION B-5 B-5 SQUARE W A V[...]

UPPER CASE FRONT CONTROL P ANEL The upper case front panel contr ols are used for man- ual TIG and stick welding. 1. CURRENT CONTROL SWITCH A two-position toggle switch: LOCAL (P ANEL): Current is contr olled by the machine settings; remote Amptr ol has no affect on current. REMOTE: Current is controlled by a r emote Amptrol up to the curr ent set [...]

6. PEAK CURRENT CONTROL Presets the maximum welding curr ent the machine will produce, fr om 2 through 400 amps. The preset curr ent is displayed on the digital ammeter when you are not welding. NOTE: The ammeter display is an indicator of the preset curr ent. Actual welding current will be slightly differ ent. If you use an Amptrol, it will contr [...]

At Maximum, the arc will be mor e for ceful and less prone to sticking but will pr oduce more spatter . 12. PREFLOW This control adjusts the amount of time the gas and water valves are open befor e the arc starts. It is adjustable from 0 to 10 seconds. The Preflow time occurs only if the valves wer e closed (no gas flow) when the Arc Start switch o[...]

Example: The Peak Current contr ol is preset at 50 amps and the Amptrol is partially down, giving a peak current of 30 amps. If the Backgr ound Current contr ol is set at 50%, the Background (low pulse) current will be 15 amps. The Amptrol raises and lowers the Peak curr ent. Since Background curr ent is always a percentage of Peak current, the Amp[...]

• ARC EST ABLISHED LED goes on when the arc is fully established and goes out if the arc goes out. • ST ART LED is on from the time the ar c is estab- lished until current begins to go up (soft start) or down (hot start). Note that the Start LED is off during upslope if a soft start is used. • PEAK LED goes on after the Start period. If the P[...]
