AC Auto Balance
®
Controls —
Automatically sets the optimal cleaning vs. penetration
level for aluminum welding!
What Is It?
When aluminum welding, the positive (+) portion of the AC welding
amperage cleans the oxides from the aluminum surface. The neg-
ative (-) portion delivers more heat input, increasing penetration
level.
Patented AC Auto Balance
®
automatically sets the ratio of
cleaning action (+) versus penetration (-) based on amperage.
Manual balance control provides the flexibility to customize
the arc to your preference.
Easy Operation:
• Set it and forget it or override when you choose to customize
the settings.

• Wider output range — for maximum flexibility:
— 2-340A DC, 2-340 AC.
• More amperage than nearest competitor at 40% duty cycle — 25
amps more!
• Lower input current draw compared to nearest competitor — up to
10% less current with 40% more duty cycle.
