| Power Source Type | Inverter | Conventional Transformer/Rectifier | Hybrid | The Dynasty 700 uses state of the 'arc' inverter technology for maximum arc control. Benefits include reduced size, weight, & primary amperage draw. | |||
| Dimensions W x D x H (cm) |
13.75 x 22.0 x 34.5 (87.6 x 34.9 x 55.9) |
31.25 x 22.75 x 47 (79.4 x 57.7 x 119.3) |
24 x 22.75 x 35.50 (61.5 x 58.3 x 91.0) |
Inverter technology provides more power than previous models in a smaller package & at a fraction of their weight. | |||

| Welding Range | 5-700 A | 25-625 A | 1-375 A | The Dynasty 700 has the power to weld the toughest, heaviest jobs, with a 5-amp low end for precision applications. | |||
| Duty Cycle - 3 Phase | 100% @ 500A / 40V 60% @ 600A / 44V |
N/A | 60% @ 300A / 32V | 100% Duty cycle at 500 Amps makes the Dynasty 700 a great choice for heavy welding and automated applications. Three-Phase power is recommended for maximum duty cycle. | |||
| Duty Cycle - Single-Phase | 100% @ 360A / 34V 60% @ 450A / 38V |
60% @ 500A / 40V | 60% @ 200A / 28V | The Dynasty can operate on Single-Phase power at a reduced duty cycle. 3-Phase power is recommended if the application calls for high-amperage & duty cycle welding. | |||
| Power Management | Auto-Line | Manual Link | Manual Link | Auto-Line allows a single power source to operate from 208-575V - with no manual linking! Line Voltage Compensation extends the actual range to 190-630V. | |||
| Input Voltage | 208 - 575V | 200/230/460 230/460/575 220/380/440/520 |
200/230/460 230/460/575 220/380/440/520 |
The standard Dynasty 700 (CSA approved) can operate on any voltage within the 190-630V range. Available CE models are rated at 400V, 3 Phase. | |||
| Input Amps @ Rated Output 230V, Single-Phase (Idle Draw) | 55 A @ 100% 105 A @ 60% |
180A (36.5A) | 44 | The Dynasty 700 consumes less power than conventional technology, provides more amperage & can be operated on 3-Phase. The result is reduced power costs and less installation costs when 3-Phase is used. | |||
| Input Amps @ Rated Output 230V, 3-Phase (Idle Draw) | 67 A @ 100% 90 A @ 60% |

| AC Waveform Type | Advanced Square Soft Square Sine, Triangle | Conventional Squarewave | Advanced Square | Multiple waveform selection allows the arc to be optimized for the application. All Dynasty waveforms use HF for arc starting only - and not for continuous AC stabilization. | |||
| AC Balance Control | Yes, 30-99% EN | Yes, 45-68% EN | Yes, 30-90% | The Dynasty 700 provides extended balance control for fine-tuning the arc cleaning action and maximizing electrode life. | |||
| AC Frequency Control | Yes, 20-400HZ | No, Line Frequency | Yes, 40-400 Hz | AC Frequency can focus the arc for increased directional control and arc stability. Lower frequencies produce a soft, wide puddle by spreading the arc. | |||
| AC Independent Amp Control | Yes | No | Yes | Allows the EN & EP amperages to be set at different values for the correct amount of cleaning and penetration. EP controls the cleaning action, while EN controls the penetration. | |||
| AC Average Amp Control | Yes | No | No | Once the EN & EP values (or ratios) are established, the average amperage can be adjusted quickly while maintaining the EN to EP ratio. | |||
| AC High Frequency | Start Only | Continuous | Start Only | Advanced Squarewave technology eliminates the need for continuous HF - and uses it only to start the arc. | |||
| Lift Arc TIG Starts | Yes | No | Yes | Controlled contact arc ignition lets you start the arc in both AC & DC TIG without the use of High Frequency. | |||
| Pulse Control | Yes | Option | Option | The pulsing feature is standard on the Dynasty 700 and has expanded parameter ranges for more control. | |||
| Max Pulse Frequency | AC = 500 Hz DC = 5,000 Hz |
10 Hz | 500 Hz | Pulsing at high speeds between a high PEAK and a low Background amperage can constrict and focus the arc - which can reduce weld width and increase travel speeds. | |||
| Weld Sequence Control | Yes, Complete | Start/Crater Control | Option, Complete | The standard weld sequence feature allows the power source to control the entire weld cycle from start to finish. | |||
| Trigger Methods | Standard Remote 2T, 3T, 4T, 4T Momentary, 4T Mini Logic | Standard Remote/Panel Control | Standard Remote, 2T, 4T | A variety of trigger methods can be selected to step thru the weld sequence. Choose the trigger that best fits the application and style of remote control. | |||
| Automation Interface Kit | Yes, Option 28-Pin Interface | No | Yes, PC Board Terminal Strip | The optional interface for the Dynasty 700 provides the necessary automation controls for plug-and-play automation. | |||
| Program Memory | Yes | No | No | The Dynasty has program memory for storage of 4 programs for each process and polarity (TIG/STICK, AC/DC). | |||
| Last Procedure Recall | Yes | No | No | With program memory, Last Procedure Recall maintains the established parameters in each memory, for all processes. | |||
| Fan-On-Demand | Yes | No | No | By running only when necessary, Fan on Demand reduces amperage draw, noise and maintenance. | |||
| HF Start Parameter Control | Yes (Amps & Time) | No | No | Optimize HF arc starts for the application - polarity and program specific. Set start amps & time based on electrode diameter, material thickness & shielding gas. | |||
| Output Connections | Thread-Lock, 1/4 Turn (High-Amp) | Studs | Studs | Thread Lock connectors are tool-less, insulated, 1/4" turn quick connections designed for high-amperage applications. | |||
| Operator Interface | Digital, Switch-pad & Encoder | Knobs & Switches | Knobs & Switches | The Dynasty uses a state of the art operator interface with digital presets for accurate parameter control. | |||
| Digital Meters | Yes, A/V | No, Analog A/V | Yes, A/V | Dual digital meters on the Dynasty display actual & present welding Amps & Volts - and enhance parameter adjustment. | |||
| Digital Parameter Presets | Yes, A/S/Hz/% | No |
