ELECTRICAL DEVICE USE WITH THE RANGER® 3 PHASE

Type

Common Electrical Devices

Possible Concerns

Resistive

Heaters, toasters, incandescent

NONE

light bulbs, electric range, hot
pan, skillet, coffee maker.

Capacitive

TV sets, radios, microwaves,

Voltage spikes or high voltage

appliances with electrical control.

regulation can cause the capaci-
tative elements to fail. Surge
protection, transient protection,
and additional loading is recom-
mended for 100% fail-safe oper-
ation.

DO NOT RUN THESE

DEVICES WITHOUT ADDI-
TIONAL RESISTIVE TYPE
LOADS.

Inductive

Single-phase induction motors,

These devices require large

drills, well pumps, grinders, small

current inrush for starting.

refrigerators, weed and hedge

Some synchronous motors may

trimmers

be frequency sensitive to attain
maximum output torque, but
they SHOULD BE SAFE from
any frequency induced failures.

Capacitive/Inductive

Computers, high resolution TV sets,

An inductive type line condition-

complicated electrical equipment.

er along with transient and
surge protection is required, and
liabilities still exist.

DO NOT

USE THESE DEVICES WITH A
RANGER® 3 PHASE

The Lincoln Electric Company is not responsible for any damage to electrical components improperly connected
to the RANGER® 3 PHASE machine
