DIGITAL SEMIAUTOMATIC INVERTER PRODUCT: PATON PSI 315P 400V DC MIG/MAG TIG/MMA The statement is based on a single evaluation of one sample of above mentioned products. It does not imply an assessment of the whole production. The manufacturer should ensure that all product in series production are in conformity with the product sample detailed in this report.
Up 315 A GENERAL INFORMATION ® The digitally controlled invertor-rectifier welding units PATON PSI 315Р / 400Р - 400V are designed for direct-current gas-shielded welding according to such welding processes as a manual arc welding process (MMA), an argon arc welding process (TIG), and a semiautomatic arc welding process (MIG/MAG).
® The basic advantages of the PATON welding units are the following: 1. The possibility to adjust welding parameters in wide ranges...
