200 Pulse PFC FUMES AND GASES CAN BE DANGEROUS Welding may produce fumes and gases hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these fumes and gases. When welding, keep your head out of the fume. Use enough ventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep fumes and gases away from the breathing zone.

200 Pulse PFC ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL. Never touch electrical parts. Wear dry, hole-free gloves and clothes to insulate yourself. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation. Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your full area of physical contact with work and ground.
200 Pulse PFC Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site, special precautions should be used to prevent hazardous situation. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode circuit is touching the work or ground. Accidental contact can cause overheating and create a fire hazard.
Thus, it is characterized with portable, small size, light weight, low consumption and etc. The parameters of ionTig 200 Pulse PFC on the front panel all can be adjusted continuously and sleeplessly, such as start current, crater arc current, welding current, base current, duty ratio, upslope time, downslope time, pre-gas, post-gas, pulse frequency, AC frequency, balance, hot start, arc force and arc length etc.

200 Pulse PFC 2.3 Volt-Ampere Characteristic ionTig 200 Pulse PFC welding machine has an excellent volt-ampere characteristic, whose graph is shown as the following figure. The relation between the conventional rated loading voltage U2 and the conventional welding current I2 is as follows: When I2≤600A,U2=10+0.04I2(V);...
200 Pulse PFC 3.2 Duty cycle and Over-heat The letter “X” stands for duty cycle, which is defined as the proportion of the time that a machine can work continuously within a certain time (10 minutes). The rated duty cycle means the proportion of the time that a machine can work continuously within 10 minutes when it outputs the rated welding current.
3.4 Power supply input connection ionTig 200 Pulse PFC welding machines’ power supply connects to 220V. When the power supply voltage is over the safe work voltage, there are over voltage and under voltage protection inside the welder, the alarm light will on, at the same time, the current output will be cut off.
(short/long) , please enquire us by mail or phone according to the accessory codes. When ionTig 200 Pulse PFC welding machines are operated in HF ignition method, the ignition spark can cause interferences in equipment near the welding machine. Be sure to take specially safety precautions or shielding measures.
200 Pulse PFC (1) Positive output: The welder’s positive polarity output. (2) Negative output: The welder’s negative polarity output. (3) Aero socket: Is connected to torch switch control wire.(It has 14 leads and lead 8 - lead 9 are connected to torch switch control wire).

200 Pulse PFC Observe that whether the display value of LED is intact. If the display number is not intact, please replace the damaged LED. If it still doesn’t work, please maintain or replace the display PCB. Observe that whether the min/max value on LED accords with the set value. If there is any difference and it has affected the normal welding craft, please adjust it.
