PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT SUMMARY
The Power Wave® S350 is a portable multi-process
power source with high-end functionality capable of
Stick, DC TIG, MIG, Pulsed MIG and Flux-Cored
welding. It is ideal for a wide variety of materials
including aluminum, stainless, and nickel — where arc
performance is critical.
The Power Wave® S350 is designed to be a very flex-
ible welding system. Like existing Power Waveʼs, the
software based architecture allows for future upgrade-
ability. One significant change from the current range
of Power Wave units is that the Ethernet communica-
tion feature is standard on the Power Wave® S350
which allows for effortless software upgrades through
Powerwavesoftware.com. The Ethernet communica-
tion also gives the Power Wave® S350 the ability to
run Production Monitoring™ 2. Also a Devicenet
option which will allow the Power Wave® S350 to be
used in a wide range of configurations. Also, the
Power Wave® S350 is being designed to be compati-
ble with future advanced welding modules like STT
RECOMMENDED PROCESSES AND
EQUIPMENT
The Power Wave® S350 is recommended for semiautomat-
ic welding, and may also be suitable for basic hard automa-
tion applications. The Power Wave® S350 can be set up in
a number of configurations, some requiring optional equip-
ment or welding programs.
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT
The Power Wave® S350 is designed to be compatible
with the current range of Power Feed™ systems
including future versions of ArcLink® feeders.
RECOMMENDED PROCESSES
The Power Wave S350 is a high speed, multi-process
power source capable of regulating the current, volt-
age, or power of the welding arc. With an output range
of 5 to 350 amperes, it supports a number of standard
processes including synergic GMAW, GMAW-P,
FCAW, FCAW-SS, SMAW, GTAW and GTAW-P on
various materials especially steel, aluminum and
stainless.
PROCESS LIMITATIONS
The software based weld tables of the Power Wave
S350 limit the process capability within the output
range and the safe limits of the machine. In general
the processes will be limited to .030-.052 solid steel
wire, .030 -.045 stainless wire, .035 -1/16 cored wire,
and .035 - 1/16 Aluminum wire.
EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
Only ArcLink compatible semiautomatic wire feeders
and users interfaces may be used. If other Lincoln
wire feeders or non-Lincoln wire feeders are used
there will be limited process capability and perfor-
mance and features will be limited.
