Now you have set the 3 required pulse settings you can start your weld.
Brief explanation of pulse settings
Pulse time
When pulse welding you have the main (peak) and base (background) amperage. By adjusting the pulse
time % you determine which one will be more prominent, the pulse or base. At a low % the base current
will be on longer so you will reduce heat input. At a high % the peak current will be on longer so you
increase heat input.
Pulse Frequency
This adjusts how often the pulse will happen per second, at 0.5Hz it will be a very slow pulse and you will
be able to see the change, when welding at high frequency the sound of arc will change to a higher pitch
and you hardly see the change in amperage as it is so fast.
Pulse Amps
This sets the % of pulse vs base amps. I.E If main amperage (peak) is set to 120amps and you set at 50%,
the base amps will be 60amps. Generally a setting of 50
-
75% base amps suits most jobs.
