Lincoln Flextec 500X/ LF-74 Heavy Duty Ready-Pak K3608-2

Lincoln® Flextec® 500X/ LF-74 Heavy Duty Ready-Pak® K3608-2

The Lincoln® Flextec® 500X/ LF-74 Heavy Duty Ready-Pak® is a complete 500 amp multi-process welder and basic MIG wire feeder package. The system is capable of MIG, Flux-cored, DC TIG and Stick welding. Weld modes for carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum and metalcore electrodes are included with the Flextec 500X power source. The heavy duty LF-74 wire feeder comes complete with Maxtrac® 4-roll wire drive system, heavy duty wire reel stand and Magnum® PRO Curve™ 400 amp MIG gun.

The Flextex 500X welding power source features Built-in CrossLinc® technology, which means that the Flextec 500X communicates with an OPTIONAL CrossLinc remote or Lincoln X Series voltage-sensing wire feeder directly through your welding leads. Full remote amperage and voltage control is achieved without the use of a separate remote-control cable. Standard voltage sensing wire feeders may also be used, but CrossLinc remote control functionality will be disabled.  For in-shop welding applications, the Flextec 500X also supports Lincoln 14-pin (LF-74) and 5-pin (digital) wire feeders through amphenol receptacles on the front panel.

The Flextec 500X is built to be a rugged performer on the harshest job sites. It is rated IP23 for welding in outdoor weather conditions. The 500X also comes with Lincoln’s Desert Duty® certification, meaning it can keep welding in temperatures up to 131 degrees F. Heavy duty alloy carrying handles, powder-coated aluminum case and shock absorbing rubber feet make this an impact resistant power source that will stand up to abuse.

The Flextec 500X operates on 380-575 volt, three-phase input power and comes with Lincoln’s three-year warranty.

  Features

• Heavy Duty LF-74 Wire Feeder
  Basic, industrial 4-drive roll wire feeder for demanding fabrication jobs.
• Pulsed MIG modes unlocked
  When paired with a compatible Arclink capable feeder.
• Multi-Process Power Source for all Your Welding Needs
  Optimized stick welding for both cellulosic and low hydrogen electrodes.
  Compatible with both CrossLinc® and standard voltage sensing feeders feeders for GMAW and FCAW.
  Touch-Start TIG® for reducing contamination during starts without high frequency.
• Field Proven Ruggedness and Durability
  Engineered for outdoor use and harsh environments.
  IP23 rated for use in outdoor weather conditions.
  Desert Duty rated for operation at temperatures up to 55° C (131° F).
  Trayed and potted PC boards to help withstand welding dust and humidity.
  Smart fans run at variable speeds to keep internal machine components cool.
  Tough alloy handles for lifting and impact protection.
  Lightweight aluminum powder painted case for rust protection.
  Shock Absorbing Rubber Feet for impact protection
• Supports 14-pin and 5-pin (ArcLink) wire feeders
  As well as CrossLinc and Across-the-Arc
• CrossLinc® with True Voltage Technology™
  CrossLinc® allows for amperage and voltage control at the welding arc to improve control of your operation.
  No need for an additional control cable communication occurs directly over the weld cables.
  True Voltage Technology™ compensates for voltage drop across the welding circuit.
  TVT™ will measure the voltage drop and adjust the power source to compensate for the difference between the desired voltage and actual voltage at the weld.
  

PLEASE NOTE: This is a DC welder ONLY. It CANNOT TIG weld aluminum.
