Argon-arc welding inverter Paton StandardTIG-350-400V 350 А 1.6-6 mm (1033035011)

Housing

It has a sturdy metal housing with dimensions of 145х390х335 mm. Weight: 10.9 kg.

Voltage and power

The inverter operates reliably on a network with a voltage of 380/400 V. It features protection against voltage fluctuations. The nominal power consumption is between 10600-12200 W, while the maximum power consumption is 15200 W.

Welding modes

The device is designed for argon-arc (TIG) welding of stainless steel, alloy steels, and non-ferrous metals with a direct current of up to 350 А. It can also operate in manual arc welding (MMA) mode and semi-automatic welding (MIG/MAG) mode as a power source when combined with an external wire feeder unit (wire diameter from 0.6 to 1.4 mm).

Settings

Settings are easily and intuitively adjusted thanks to the LCD screen with a multilingual interface. In each welding mode—MMA, TIG, and MIG/MAG—the device can store up to 16 different configuration options. The current setting (program) number is displayed in the upper right corner of the indicator located on the front panel of the power source.

Oscillator

The device includes a non-contact arc ignition unit (oscillator) and a PULSE function for two welding modes: MMA and TIG.

Power connectors

The housings of the power connectors are made of heat-resistant material.

Current adjustment

The welding current is adjustable from 14 A to 350 A, with a maximum effective current of 450 A.

Electrodes

Any covered electrodes with diameters ranging from 1.6 mm to 6 mm can be used.

Function "ANTI-STICK"

During the initial arc strike, the electrode may stick or adhere to the workpiece, which can lead to overheating and excessive heat, potentially damaging the electrode. If the electrode sticks to the workpiece, the device reduces the welding current within 0.6 to 0.8 seconds. This makes it easier for the welder to detach the electrode from the workpiece without the risk of eye injury from an accidental arc strike. Once the electrode is detached from the workpiece, the welding process can continue uninterrupted.

Function "HOT-START"

The "HOT-START" function improves ignition even when using electrodes that are difficult to ignite. It also helps to achieve better penetration of the base material during ignition, resulting in fewer cold welds. Additionally, it prevents the formation of slag inclusions.

Function "ARC-FORCE"

The "ARC-FORCE" function enhances the stability of welding on a short arc, improves the transfer of metal droplets into the weld pool, improves arc ignition, and reduces the likelihood of electrode sticking.
