MMA 150A welder generator weighs just 34kg
An air-cooled MMA welder generator - rated at 150A/60% duty cycle - weighs only 34kg, and has chopped DC output that allows it to produce high quality smooth welding characteristics.
Multi-process 160A welder is low-cost
Low cost, single phase 160A multi-process power source uses inverter technology for MIG/MAG, MIG Brazing, MMA and DC TIG welding using a 230V 50/60Hz power supply or a generator.
It is designed for use on pipelines producing X-ray quality welds, arduous on-site fabrication, petrochemical plants, heavy plant maintenance, offshore operation as well as on-site general purpose welding and maintenance.
It is also suitable for the hire market.
It has multi-purpose DC ripple free welding capability including the following.
* MMA, MIG, both solid and flux cored wire and TIG.
* The constant current (CC) range is 10-500A at 35% duty cycle for MMA and TIG welding.
* For MIG welding the constant voltage (CV) range is 16-44V with 35% duty cycle at 450A.
It can provide 3-phase AC auxiliary power at 16kVA/400V/23.1A and single phase AC generation at 12kVA/230V/52.2A with a single phase option of 6kVA/110V/54.5A.
The Perkins 404 C-22G water cooled, four-cylinder diesel engine has a low 69dB(A) noise level at 7m, a 60 litres fuel tank giving up to 15h running time at 60% duty cycle, providing 20.3kW output.
Fuel consumption is 243g/kWh.
It has as standard electric start, hour meter, low fuel indicator, low oil pressure warning, voltmeter and are all super silenced to meet EU noise and safety regulations.
Options include site and road tow capability, MIG wire feeder, remote controls, 15 and 20m, 50mm2 welding cables and auxiliary power plugs as well as a voltage reduction device version.
