OVERVIEW

Optimize Your STT Welding Performance

Unlock the full potential of your Lincoln Electric power source with the K940-25 Sense Lead Kit. This 25-foot accessory is not just a cable; it is the nervous system of your STT (Surface Tension Transfer) welding setup. When welding with advanced processes, the machine needs to know exactly what is happening at the arc to control the heat input and droplet transfer effectively. Standard ground setups can introduce voltage drops that mislead the power source, resulting in erratic arcs and suboptimal welds.

The K940-25 solves this problem by creating a direct sensing line from the work piece back to the welder. This allows compatible machines, such as the Invertec STT II and select Power Wave models, to compensate for cable length and resistance instantly. The result is a smoother arc, better fusion, and the high-quality finish that STT is famous for. It is especially crucial when working with long lead setups where voltage drop is more pronounced.

Rugged and reliable, this sense lead is designed for the shop floor. The 25-foot length offers ample flexibility for positioning around large weldments without sacrificing signal integrity. If your application demands precision—such as pipe welding, automotive fabrication, or critical structural work—ensure your equipment is receiving the accurate data it needs with the Lincoln Electric K940-25.

FAQ

It monitors the voltage directly at the welding arc (workpiece) to provide accurate feedback to the power source, compensating for voltage drop in the welding cables.

It is designed for use with the Invertec STT II, Power Wave 355M, and Power Wave S350 welding machines.

Yes, the K940-25 is typically included with the purchase of a new Invertec STT II machine, but it is sold separately as a replacement or spare.

The cable is 25 feet (7.6 meters) long.

The STT process relies on rapid, precise adjustments to the waveform. Accurate voltage data from the arc is essential for the machine to control the puddle and prevent spatter.

While it is specific to machines capable of using external voltage sensing (like STT), it ensures optimal voltage accuracy for any process supported by the compatible Power Wave machines.

Yes, the kit includes the necessary lead and connectors to attach to the work and the power source.
