DVANTAGE LINCOLN
Flexible Design - Designed for simple, seamless integration with the
FANUC
®
Robotics R-30iA Controller, or use as a separated configuration
to meet your weld cell requirements.
Quality and Consistent Welding Results - Lincoln’s Waveform Control
Technology
®
gives you the ability to select the right waveform for each
application – that means the arc has been optimized for each wire type
and size for exceptionally smooth arc performance.
High Performance Digital Communications - High speed digital
communication via ArcLink
®
protocol, a CAN connection or now the
ArcLink
®
XT™, the ArcLink
®
protocol can be communicated over an
Ethernet cable.
Best in Class Power - 10-420 amps output delivers the power you need
for a wide range of processes and materials, with no derating for pulse
waveforms.
Ready to Perform - Auxiliary outlet offers flexibility to add fume extraction,
water cooler, computer or other accessories quickly and easily.
DESIGN FEATURES
• Industry best 120 kHz inverter:
- Operates at a high efficiency and (.95) power factor at rated output.
- Capable of operating from a universal input voltage (208 to 575 volts).
• Fan-As-Needed™ (F.A.N.) - reduces power consumption and the amount
of debris that gets drawn into the machine by shutting the fan down
when it is not needed.
• Engineered Power Distribution:
- Single power drop saves time and cost.
- 3 phase input power supplied to robot
controller via dedicated reconnect block.
- 115VAC, 15 amp capacity auxiliary duplex receptacle to power
optional water cooler, fume extraction, grinder, and computer.
• Recessed connection panel for protection against accidental impact.
• External access to controller mounting hardware.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
• Removable left side panel permits easy access to internal components
for routine maintenance or repair, even when integrated in a robotic cell.
• Panel mounted status LED indicators allow for quick and easy
troubleshooting.
• Lockable on/off power switch on power source for controller/robot for
maintenance purposes (power must be disconnected at the wall).
• Mechanical connection to R-30iA Controller accessible from exterior
of Power Wave
®
i400 for easy removal of controller.
• Full support of Lincoln Electric Diagnostic Utility software for easy
troubleshooting through the Teach Pendant.

What is Coaxial Transformer Technology™?
Coaxial Transformer Technology™ eliminates inefficiency and power
loss. Regardless of the size (power level) a coaxial transformer has
superior coupling and efficiency. This is obtained through the coaxial
orientation of the primary and secondary windings.
The benefits for the customer include:
• Higher power capabilities with a less
complex design.
• Higher efficiency (reduced energy costs).
• Higher reliability (lower stresses on components).
• Proven reliability.
