RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT
• Automatic Operation
All welding programs and procedures are set through
software for the robotic Power Wave® s. FAUN
robots equipped with RJ-3 controllers may communi-
cate directly to the Power Wave®. Other pieces of
equipment such as ply or computers can communi-
cate to the Power Wave® using DeviceNET.
All wire welding processes require a robotic Power
Feed™ wire feeder.
• semiautomatic Operation
Operating the Power Wave® 655/r in the semi-auto-
matic mode requires an Arc-Link compatible wire
feeder and user interface.
REQUIRED EQUIPMENT
• Control Cables (22 pin to 22 pin), K1795-10ft.,-25ft.,-50ft.,
-100ft.
• Control Cables for use on FAUN robot arm, 22 pin to 14
pin, ft.(m), K1804-1
• Control Cables for use on FAUN robot arm, 22 pin to 14
pin, 18in.(457mm), K1805-1
• Control Cables for use on FAUN robot arm, 22 pin to 14
pin, 18in.(457mm), K1804-2
LIMITATIONS
• Power Wave® s are not to be used in outdoor envi-
ronments.
• Only Arc-Link Power Feed™ wire feeders and user
interfaces may be used. Other Lincoln wire feeders
or non-Lincoln wire feeders cannot be used.
DUTY CYCLE AND TIME PERIOD
The Power Feed™ wire feeders are capable of weld-
ing at a 100% duty cycle (continuous welding). The
power source will be the limiting factor in determining
system duty cycle capability. Note that the duty cycle
is based upon a ten minute period. A 60% duty cycle
represents 6 minutes of welding and 4 minutes of
idling in a ten minute period.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Power Wave® power source is designed to be a
part of a modular, multi-process welding system.
Depending on configuration, it can support constant
current, constant voltage, and pulse welding modes.
The Power Wave® power source is designed to be
used with the family of Power Feed wire feeders,
operating as a system. Each component in the system
has special circuitry to "talk with" the other system
components, so each component (power source, wire
feeder, electrical accessories) knows what the other is
doing at all times. The components communicate with
Arc-Link.
Robotic systems can communicate with other industri-
al machines via DeviceNET. The result is highly
intrigued and flexible welding cell.
The Power Wave® 655/r is a high performance, digi-
tally controlled inverter welding power source capable
of complex, high-speed waveform control. Properly
equipped, it can support the GMAW, GMAW-P,
FCAW, SMAW, GTAW and CAC-A processes. It car-
ries an output rating of either 650 amps, 44 volts (at
100% duty cycle) and 800 amps, 44 volts (at 60%
duty cycle).
If the duty cycle is exceeded, a thermostat will shut off
the output until the machine cools to a reasonable
operating temperature.
RECOMMENDED PROCESSES AND
EQUIPMENT
RECOMMENDED PROCESSES
The Power Wave® 655/r can be set up in a number of
configurations, some requiring optional equipment or
welding programs. Each machine is factory prepro-
grammed with multiple welding procedures, typically
including GMAW, GMAW-P, FCAW, GTAW, CAC-A,
and SMAW for a variety of materials, including mild
steel, stainless steel, cored wires, and aluminum.
The Power Wave® 655/r can be configured for either
robotic or semi-automatic use.
