SMAW Equipment ASCENT INTERNATIONAL TRAINNIG
-
Constant Current Power Source ASCENT INTERNATIONAL TRAINNIG
-
Constant CurrentAs arc voltage, V, drops, arc current, A, risesArc V related to distance from electrode to workElectrode moved closer, Arc V falls, Arc A risesElectrode moved away, Arc V rises, Arc A dropsArc current directly related to heat inputWelder controls heat input to work
