Pro-Set

™

eliminates the guesswork

when setting weld parameters.

Use Pro-Set when you want the

speed, convenience and confidence

of preset controls. Simply select

the feature and adjust until

Pro-Set appears on the display.

Sleep timer conserves electricity.

This programmable feature will power

down the machine if it sits idle for a

specific time.

Allows for any input voltage hookup

(208 – 575 V) with no manual linking,

providing convenience in any job setting.

Ideal solution for dirty or unreliable power.

Cooler Power Supply (CPS). An

integrated 120-volt dedicated-use

receptacle to power the Coolmate

™

1.3.

The power switch on the Dynasty also

activates the receptacle to help prevent

torch failure. Available on select models,

see page 6.

Blue Lightning

™

high-frequency (HF)

arc starter for non-contact arc initiation.

Provides more consistent arc starts and

greater reliability compared to traditional

HF arc starters.

Meter calibration allows digital meters to be calibrated

for certification.

Wind Tunnel Technology

™

protects internal electrical

components from airborne contaminates, extending the

product life.

Fan-On-Demand

™

power source cooling system operates

only when needed, reducing noise, energy use and the

amount of contaminants pulled though the machine.

AC TIG Features

Balance control provides adjustable

oxide removal which is essential

for creating the highest quality

aluminum welds. DX models provide

extended ranges.

Frequency controls the width of the

arc cone and can improve directional

control of the arc.

AC Waveforms

Advanced squarewave,

fast freezing puddle, deep

penetration and fast travel speeds.

Soft squarewave for a soft

buttery arc with maximum

puddle control and good wetting action.

Sine wave for customers that

like a traditional arc. Quiet with

good wetting.

Triangular wave reduces the

heat input and is good on thin

aluminum. Fast travel speeds.

DC TIG Features

Exceptionally smooth and precise arc

for welding exotic materials.

AC/DC Stick Features

DIG control allows the arc charac -

teristics to be changed for specific

applications and electrodes. Lower

the DIG setting for smooth running

electrodes like E7018 and increase

the DIG setting for stiffer, more

penetrating electrodes like E6010.

Hot Start

™

adaptive control provides

positive arc starts without sticking.

AC frequency control adds stability for

smoother welds when AC Stick welding.

Stick-Stuck detects if the electrode is

stuck to the part and turns the welding

output off to safely and easily remove

the electrode. Menu selectable.
