Issued April 2017 • Index No. DC/24.5 Industrial Applications Quick Specs Precision metal fabrication Tube mills Pipe and tube fabrication Tool and die Exotic material fabrication Pressure vessel fabrication TIG (GTAW) Pulsed TIG (GTAW-P) Stick (SMAW) Air carbon arc (CAC-A) 400: 1/4 in. maximum 800: 3/8 in. maximum TIG/Stick Welding Power Source Input Power 208–575 V, 3- or 1-phase power Amperage Range 400: 3–400 A 800: 5–800 A Rated Output 400: 300 A at 32 V, 60% duty cycle 800: 600 A at 44 V, 60% duty cycle Lift-Arc™ provides DC arc initiation without the use of high frequency. 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. 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. Cooler Power Supply (CPS) is an integrated 120-volt dedicated-use receptacle for the Coolmate™ 3.5. Exceptionally smooth and precise arc for welding exotic materials. Pulse. Pulsing can increase puddle agitation, arc stability and travel speeds while reducing heat input and distortion. These models provide extended ranges. Cooler-On-Demand™ feature operates the auxiliary cooling system only when needed, reducing noise, energy use, and airborne contaminants pulled through the cooler. Wind Tunnel Technology™ protects internal electrical components from airborne contaminants, 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. DC Stick Features Maxstar 400 machine only Maxstar 400 Wireless Complete Program memory features nine independent program memories that maintain/save your parameters. Auto-postflow adjusts the length of postflow time based on the amperage setting, shielding your tungsten and eliminating the need to set the postflow time. DIG control allows the arc characteristics 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. Power source is warranted for three years, parts and labor.
