It is the intent of FISC, NNSY ANNEX, to contract for: (35) each MULTIPLE OPERATOR SYSTEM RECTIFIERS: Six module MO welding system with a main transformer capable of providing 1500 amperes at 25% duty cycle and 750 amperes at 100% duty cycle. This machine shall be suitable for use in environments with increased hazard of electrical shock. The following features shall apply: 1.1. Each module shall have CC/CV capability; 1.2. Each module shall have a minimum duty cycle of 60% at 250 amperes; 1.3. Electrode compensation circuit to prevent sticking of electrodes; 1.4. Capable of supporting SMAW, CTAW, CAC-A, FCAW, & GMAW with voltage sensing wire feeders; 1.5. Voltage range shall be a minimum of 10-30 in CV mode; 1.6. Amperage range shall be 20-315 in CC mode; 1.7 Hot start circuit; 1.8. Lift arc feature, which reduces OCV below 30 VDC. This circuit shall sense when the electrode has made contact with the work piece and closes contactor. Likewise, when the arc is broken this circuit will disable OVC. This circuit shall allow this power source to qualify for use in environments with increased hazard of electrical shocks. (See IEC 60974-1, rated no-load voltage for use in environments with increased hazard for electrical shock ); 1.9. Input current shall not exceed 85 volts; 1.10. Line voltage compensation to keep input power constant during +/- 10% variance of primary power. 1.11. Unit shall be constructed of steel and suitable for shipyard environments, which include exposure to inclement weather; 1.12. Width shall allow movement through a standard 36" doorway; 1.13. Weight shall not exceed 1825 pounds.
