MULTI-PROCESS WELDERS  
DC-400  
400 Amp DC Multi-Process Welding Power Source  
This heavy-duty, industrial, three-phase multi-process power source from  
Lincoln Electric scores big in MIG, flux-cored, submerged arc, stick and DC  
TIG welding. It's a great choice for arc gouging too. And flexibility doesn’t  
mean complicated – the DC-400 is easy to set-up and use. Changeover  
between processes is as simple as turning a switch with the factory or field  
installed multi-process switch. On-board ammeter and voltmeter make  
monitoring of key welding parameters a snap. Inductance and arc force  
controls allow the operator to efficiently refine the arc for the job at hand.
