This inverter technology unit makes electrode welding easier thanks to direct current and its low power consumption
(230V-16A power supply).

It has an adjustment range of 10 to 170 A.
The digital amperage display allows you to be more precise in your work.

TIG welding allows you to weld thin thicknesses that you could not achieve with an electrode in MMA mode.

Welding possible on steel, stainless steel, copper, nickel... from 0.5 mm thickness.

TIG welding mode requires the use of a shielding gas during the welding operation (pure Argon).

Arc striking is achieved by touching the tip of the tungsten electrode to the metal workpiece and lifting it slightly to create the welding arc (TIG-LIFT striking method).

It features protection (+/- 15% variation) against electrical overloads, allowing it to be powered by a generator. However, the generator must supply a stabilized current.

Equipped with the following systems:
HOT START to facilitate arc striking, ANTI-STICKING which eliminates the problem of the electrode sticking to the workpiece, and ARC FORCE which increases the arc power when the welding arc is kept short.
VRD: This device reduces the voltage when the welding unit is switched on but not in welding mode; it thus ensures the welder's safety should they accidentally touch the electrode.
