The TIG welder S-ALU 225PH's control panel is clearly arranged and is easy to use while wearing welding gloves. Four toggle switches allow you to directly choose the basic welding functions (TIG, MMA, AC, DC, 2T, 4T, Pulse). The required values for the individual welding functions can then be set by means of nine infinitely variable rotary controls. The LED display lets you keep an eye on the current amperage.
The welding machine has a maximum power of 225 amperes with a duty cycle of 60 percent. If the power is reduced to 174 amperes, you can weld without interruption. With its high performance, the welder can even weld thicker metals up to 9 mm quickly and precisely.
The TIG DC welding method can be used for welding more robust metals such as steel, stainless steel, copper or brass. The torch produces few sparks and spatter and guarantees pure, high quality welds that leave very little distortion. In addition, you can use the welder in various positions, whether vertical, horizontal or overhead.
This welder gives you the option of welding with either AC or DC TIG, so you can work with either direct or alternating current, depending on the metal. Alternating current (AC) is suited for light metals such as aluminium or titanium. Direct current (DC) can be used for welding more robust metals such as steel, stainless steel, copper or brass.
The Pulse function is particularly useful for welding thin sheets from 1 millimetre—especially those made of aluminium. Even under difficult conditions, the arc can be easily stabilised since the pulse frequency is adjustable up to 300 Hz. It is also possible to select numerous parameters such as start or end current for pulsed current welding, and to optimally adjust them to the workpiece with the aid of the control knob. You can adjust the pulse frequency between 0.5 and 300 Hz for stable welding results and a better cleaning effect when welding at a high frequency, for example with anodise aluminium sheets.
The welder uses proven MOSFET inverter technology, which has an efficiency of 93% and guarantees a stable welding current. The result: Perfect welds. The welding arc is activated via reliable high-frequency ignition (HF).
No additional gas is required for MMA (Manual Metal Arc) welding, enabling it to be used outdoors even in strong wind. With this welding method, the welder generates a very stable current, all the while securely maintaining the voltage. This allows you to make high-quality welds on a wide variety of metals.
The MMA welding clamps can grasp even large electrodes with a diameter of up to 4 mm. With the MMA welding method, you can weld materials such as steel, iron, cast iron, nickel or copper from 1.5 to 9 mm thick. The welding machine enables you to correctly install and maintain railings, stairs, gates, doors, containers or metal machinery.
The electrode welder's hot start function ensures an automatic and short-term increase of the welding current at the start of the welding process. Thanks to this “hot start”, the starting point is immediately heated to the optimal temperature and the electrodes do not clog. This creates a clean, stable weld from the very first moment.
The ARC Force function regulates the arc sensor and adapts it to the perfect density for the respective material. You can select the ampere strength for ARC Force using the digital control panel.
The air cooling system and overheat protection provide this device with long-lasting reliability and durability. The handle on the sturdy metal housing makes the device easy to transport. Because of its weight, we recommend a welding trolley for longer distances.
