Lincoln Electric has announced the launch of their new SAE-300 MP engine-driven welder. This new machine is designed for general construction and pipe welding.

With a standard built-in CV output contactor, this engine-driven welder eliminates the need for a separate wire feeder module and the downtime associated with installing it. Additionally, the OCV Boost function can be used to aid starting and low amperage welding. And, a standard on-board block heater is ready to pre-heat the engine for use in cold environments.

The SAE-300 MP features a 24.7 HP Perkins water cooled turbo-charged engine. This machine produces 300 amps DC/32 volts at 60 per cent duty cycle and 250 amps DC/30 volts at 100 per cent duty cycle. In addition, the SAE-300 MP provides 3,000 watts of AC generator power.

The all-copper windings and flat DC output ensure a smooth, stable arc that enhances arc control, helping operators keep defects to a minimum to avoid cutouts and costly repairs.
