It's hard to say without knowing more about the procedures but here is a little bit of thought.

DCEP = Direct Current Electrode Positive (also known as DC reverse polarity)

Typically Welding Shield gas is measured in Cubic feet per hour (CFH) 40 CFH is a normal manufacturers suggested rate for some GMAW or FCAW shield gas flow rates.

For us to 'GUESS' at what someone MAY have meant when they entered in 'DPEC' would be a mistake. You need to verify with them. We could speculate all day about possible interpretations, mistakes, etc. Only the originator knows for sure.

40 cfm is on the high side but if memory serves me correctly it is within normally accepted parameters. Many use cfm where they should be using cfh.

OKAY, could have made things easier on myself so here: 40 cfh would be the correct description and while it would be a little on the high side it should be within accepted parameters. Many use cfm where they should be using cfh. (left the old one there so the reason for the following razzing would be obvious) Also, personally, we normally set flow at about 30 cfh but it can depend upon many things.

Hello Brent, I'm sorry but I'm going to have to RAZ you a bit here: "40 CUBIC FEET PER MINUTE" are you sure about that? Please don't take me too seriously. Best regards, Allan

He's in AZ Allen, it's a dry 40 CFM.

Ok Carl, but I wouldn't want to pay for that shielding gas bill. Best regards, Allan

LOL. Funny guys, but notice the sentence following. And yes, in AZ the gas either evaporates or is blown away if you don't run it high enough... :wink:

(please note the sarcasm).

I see it regularly I'm sad to say. When people talk about air comp air flow they also do it, call it cfm when they mean cfh. Another question the OP needs to clarify more with those who supplied the WPS than with us. We have no idea what they are doing or thinking. OR, if it is just a typo.

I know you say that in jest, but what a lot of people don’t know is this.... dyslexia is one of the side effects of taking LDS. I'll never forget the day I was diagnosed with dyslexia. It was the 41st of April, 1892. I can't stand people laughing at my dyslexia any longer. Curing yourself of dyslexia should be as easy as ACB, but that’s easier done than said. I’m so sick of it I've just swallowed about a hundred pills and washed them down with a fifth and half of whiskey. Let’s see who’s laughing when I'm deaf. I know, I know…. when life gives you lemons, you’re supposed to make melonade. I'm not alone because 17 out of 4 people suffer from dyslexia. The thing is, dyslexics are teople poo, but let’s face it. Byslexia is a ditch. I hear the cruel jokes, like the one that starts off… a dyslexic man walks into a bra. Very funny. Excuse me, but life is though, it's even thougher if you're dyslexic. I guess I get it honest. My father was dyslexic. Any time I said a bad word, he would punish me by washing my mouth out with soup. I used to love that. Once at a family picnic I told my dad that my teacher said dyslexia is hereditary and that it was probably passed down to me from either him or my mom. His response was “That's ridiculous son. Now shut up and finish eating your waterlemon.” As I got older I couldn’t keep a girlfriend. The first girlfriend I ever had broke up with me after only two dates. Most girls like to be serenaded, so on our second date, I sang “me and you, sittin in a tree, K.I.F.D.R.V.P.”. She never called me back. She just left me a note that said “I'm leaving you because you're so stupid and so bigoted.” I wrote her a note too. It said “I'm not stupid, I'm just dyslexic, and I can't help it if I have big toes." Come to think of it, our first date didn’t go all that well either. We went to Blockbuster to get a movie. Evidently I wasn’t the only one devastated to find out they were all out of CopPorn. You should have seen the look on her face when I asked if they had any. In the end, I guess she just wasn’t my typo.
