2.3.2 POWER SUPPLY
The power supply consists of a tapped single phase trans-
former, tap selection switches, secondary contactor, single
phase full wave rectier, stabilizing reactor, slope resistor,
ltering capacitors and internal output connections for
polarity reversal.
2.3.3 WIRE FEEDER
The wire feeder pushes 0.023, 0.030, 0.035 and 0.045 in.
wire at speeds up to 650 IPM. Dynamic braking prevents
excessive wire overrun. A double grooved drive roll (0.035
and 0.045 in. - supplied) provides a convenient means of
changing the setup for either wire size.
The wire feeder is built into the power supply cabinet, and
is housed in a compartment separated from the welding
machine components. Machine ventilation is not drawn
through this compartment, thus helping to keep the wire
and feeding mechanism clean.
