Resting
Duty cycle is percentage of 10
minutes that unit can weld at rated
load without overheating.
Y Exceeding duty cycle can
damage unit and void
warranty.

4-4. Volt-Ampere Curves
ssb1.1 10/91 − ST-157 625-B / ST-157 626-B
Volt-ampere curves show minimum
and maximum voltage and amper-
age output capabilities of welding
power source. Curves of other set-
tings fall between curves shown.
