SECTION 4 − SPECIFICATIONS 4-1. Features And Benefits LVCt Line Voltage Compensation is circuitry that keeps the power source output constant regardless of input pow- er fluctuation. Wind Tunnel Technologyt circulates air over components that require cooling, not over electronic circuitry, which reduces contaminants and improves reliability in harsh welding environments.

5-7. Electrical Service Guide Elec Serv 2017-01 NOTICE − INCORRECT INPUT POWER can damage this welding power source. This welding power source requires a CONTINUOUS supply of input power at rated frequency(+10%) and voltage (+10%). Phase to ground voltage shall not exceed +10% of rated input voltage. Do not use a genera- tor with automatic idle device (that idles engine when no load is sensed) to supply input power to this welding power source.
