A. Description
The 9700W control is a microprocessor-based control designed for the control of welding wire feed.
It is primarily used with GTAW and PAW for both cold wire and hot wire delivery. The delivery
mechanism requires other parts. In the case of hot wire an additional power source is needed. The
9700W is one of a series of controls designed for ease-of-use and for accurate control of various
drive motors for different weld applications.
The control is packaged in a conveniently-sized enclosure with Amphenol connectors. The
enclosure has four mounting holes to permit it to be fastened to the face of a travel carriage or to a
control podium. The front panel is a membrane overlay with a graphic backlit LCD display and
switches to control the setup and operation of the unit.
The 9700W control has been designed to be easy to use. Its operation is made easier by the use
of the display which guides you through the setup process, and during the welding sequence, tells
you what is happening.
