The PipePro 0 RFC power source can be combined with either the PipePro SuitCase or PipePro DX Bench Feeders and Bernard PipeWorx Guns to offer a total solution for pipe welding applications in the shop or field. PipePro DX Bench Feeder Provides a reliable wire feeder solution for shop applications. The dual-feeder version allows the operator to easily switch from one process/wire for root pass welding to another process/wire for fill and cap welding. PipePro 0 RFC Provides one versatile power source to produce pipe welds using conventional and advanced processes in shop and field applications. Bernard PipeWorx 0- Provides an ergonomic solution to producing root passes on pipe and other medium-duty applications. Designed by welders to reduce fatigue and improve visibility of the puddle on the root pass. Bernard PipeWorx 00- or 00- Provides a heavy-duty solution to producing root, fill and cap welds on pipe.

IMPROVED WELD PERFORMANCE Regulated Metal Deposition (RMD Pro) Precisely controlled short-circuit transfer technology provides welders with an easy to use welding process with excellent puddle control for the root pass. Calm, stable arc/puddle reduces weld training and improves quality. Pro-Pulse This method of pulse welding is easier to use than conventional pulse in out-of-position pipe welding applications. This is accomplished through precise control of the arc and puddle even in narrow joints, which provides optimum molten puddle control for out-of-position welding. Precise control of puddle produces excellent side wall fusion on all pipe joint designs. Power source is warranted for years, parts and labor. Miller Electric Mfg. Co.

PipePro 0 RFC Welding System (See page for programs available for PipePro 0 RFC.) The PipePro 0 Welding System provides one versatile solution for pipe welding in a package for both field and shop fabrication. Standard welding processes include RMD Pro and Pro-Pulse, conventional MIG, GMAW-P, FCAW, Stick, TIG, and Air Carbon Arc cutting. The RMD Pro and Pro-Pulse welding processes are optimized for steel and stainless steel pipe. Programs are provided for the most common gases, wire types and wire diameters used in the pipe welding industry. Contact Miller for more information on less common materials and gas combinations. PipePro 0 RFC Features Auto-Line /-turn connectors Multiprocess Wind Tunnel Technology Field or Shop Fan-On-Demand Easy to operate Allows for any input voltage hook-up (90 0 V, 0/0 Hz) with no manual linking. Compensates for voltage spikes and drops within the entire range. CE units are 00 V only. Allow for faster installation of system and reduces thread stripping. Select from Stick, TIG, MIG, GMAW-P, RMD Pro, Pro-Pulse MIG, FCAW and Air Carbon Arc. Circulates air over components that require cooling, not over electronic circuitry, which reduces contaminants and improves reliability. Can be used with either a SuitCase feeder for field construction, or a single or dual bench-style feeder for shop fabrication. Cooling system operates only when needed. Reduces amount of airborne contaminants pulled through the machine. Simple front panel layout makes it easy to select programs. Specifications (Subject to change without notice.)

Welding Process Capabilities RMD (Regulated Metal Deposition) Pro A precisely controlled short-circuit metal transfer that provides a calm, stable arc and weld puddle. This provides less chance of cold lap or lack of fusion, less spatter and a higher quality root pass on pipe. The stability of the weld process lessens the puddle manipulation required by the welder and is more tolerant to hi-lo conditions, reducing training requirements. Weld bead profiles are thicker than conventional root pass welds which can eliminate the need for a hot pass, improving weld productivity. In some stainless steel applications, it may be possible to eliminate the backing (purge) gas to further improve productivity and reduce welding costs. Current Wave Form RMD Ball Transfer <- Wet -> Pinch Clear Blink Ball Background Pre-short Ideally suited to root pass welding Consistent side wall fusion Less weld spatter Tolerant to hi-lo fit-up conditions More tolerant of tip to work distance Less welder training time Thicker root passes can eliminate hot pass Eliminate backing gas on some stainless steel applications Pro-Pulse This method of pulse welding provides a shorter arc length, narrower arc cone and less heat input than with traditional spray pulse transfer. Since the process is synergic, arc wandering and variations in tip-to-work distances are virtually eliminated. This provides easier puddle control for both in-position and out-of position welding, reducing welder training time. The process also improves fusion and fill at the toe of the weld, permitting higher travel speeds and higher deposition. This process coupled with RMD Pro for root pass welding permits welding procedures with one wire and one gas to eliminate process switch-over time. Ideally suited to fill and cap pass welding Easier puddle control than conventional spray pulse Shorter arc lengths and narrow arc cone for out-of-position welding More tolerant of tip to work variation Improve fusion and fill at toe of weld Less heat input reduces interpass cooling time and improves weld cycle time Enables one-wire with one-gas weld procedures PipePro Welding Programs RMD Pro programs designed for root pass welding on deep groove welds in all positions.

DSS-9 #07 8 A two-position slide switch which attaches to the gun handle and is used to select the desired welding condition for dual schedule purposes. The gun trigger operates as a stan dard trigger. The PipeWorx 0- Gun is recommended for root pass welding, especially in fixed-position applications where visibility is difficult. The PipeWorx 00- or 00- are recommended for fill and cap pass welding with Flux Cored arc or Pulsed MIG welding processes. In roll welding applications where one gas and one wire are used to make the weld, the PipeWorx 00 can be used to deposit the root pass. (A smaller nozzle diameter should be considered for improved puddle visibility and should be used for stainless steel root pass welding without purge gas.)
