GENERAL DESCRIPTION The IDEALARC CV -400 is an SCR controlled three- phase input, DC output power source f or welding. It uses a single range potentiometer control. The welder's unique combination of transf ormer , three phase h ybr id rectifier , capacitor bank, output choke , and solid state control system deliv er outstanding per- f or manc[...]

WELDING CAP ABILITY The CV -400 has the f ollowing duty cycle ratings. If the duty cycle is e xceeded, a thermal protector will shut off the machine output until it cools to nor mal operating temperature. The amber ther mal protection indicator light will tur n on until the machine cools. *Based on a 10 minute time period. For e xample, a 60% duty [...]
