PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The PRECISION TIG 225 is a member of our field
acclaimed Precision TIG family of industrial arc welding
power sources. Premium features include:
1. Precise constant current output.
2. Full range square wave AC/DC TIG (GTAW) welding.
3. Enhanced version of the patented Micro-Start II™
Technology for its lower Minimum(5 amps) to higher
Maximum (230 amps) output control range.
4. Built-in high frequency stabilization for DC TIG starting
and continuous AC TIG welding.
5. AC/DC Stick (SMAW capability.) A new undercarriage
(with gas bottle rack) is available for field installation, or is
included with an available Ready-Pak TIG Welding
Package. The Precision TIG patented convenient built-in
storage provisions for welding components and cable
management.
The PRECISION TIG 225 also provides advanced features
such as:
• Digital Meter
• Presettable control, adjustable Auto Balance™
• Fan As Needed (F.A.N.)
• Timers for fixed Preflow and variable Postflow shielding
gas.
• Built-in, easy to set single knob Pulse TIG control with a
"blinking" light to indicate the pulse frequency setting.
• Auto-Sense remote control selection.
• Tool-less Twist-Mate electrode cable connection.
• Built-in work clamp cable permanently attached.
Four models are available for 60Hz. with Domestic and
Canadian input voltages, as well as an International model
with 50/60Hz voltages.
An Auxiliary 115vac Receptacle with Circuit Breaker are
included on the back panel of the Precision TIG 225 models.
The Canadian (K2533-2) and International (K2534-1) mod-
els are rated 6 amps, while the 208/230/1/60 models
(K2533-1 and K2535-1/-2) are rated 20 amps (for use with
Lincolnʼs 115v SP and Power Mig models).
RECOMMENDED PROCESSES AND EQUIP-
MENT

RECOMMENDED PROCESSES

The PRECISION TIG 225 is recommended for the TIG
(GTAW) and Stick (SMAW) welding processes within its out-
put capacity range of 5 amps DC or AC to 225 amps
AC/DC. It is compatible with most Magnum TIG acces-
sories, as well as many industry standard items, such as
TIG torches (adapted for Twist-Mate), hoses, and water
coolers.
OPERATION

PROCESS LIMITATIONS

The Precision TIG machines are not recommended for arc
gouging due to its limited output capacity, and are also not
recommended for pipe thawing.

EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS

The Precision TIG machines are protected from over loads
beyond the output ratings and duty cycles, per the
Specifications in the Installation Section, with Thermostat pro-
tection of the output power coils and rectifiers.
The PRECISION TIG 225 machine uses Twist-Mate output ter-
minals, therefore stud connection adapters (such as LECO.
S19257-series) cannot be used for torch connection.
If a PRECISION TIG 225 is powered from an engine generator
which doesnʼt have sufficient capacity, the AC Balance control
and the Output control will not provide full range of control.
WELDING CAPABILITY(Duty Cycle)
The PRECISION TIG 225 is rated at 225 amps, 29 volts, at
10% duty cycle on a ten minute basis. It is capable of higher
duty cycles at lower output currents. See rated output graph, on
specification sheet located in the Installation Section. If the duty
cycle is exceeded, a thermal protector will shut off the output
until the machine cools.
