GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The INVERTER ARC™ 230 is a 150 amp arc welding
power source which utilizes single phase input power
to produce constant current output. The welding
response of this Inverter has been optimized for stick
(SMAW) and TIG (GTAW) welding.
OPERATION
WELDING CAPABILITY
The INVERTER ARC™ 230 is rated at 150 amps
at 30% duty cycle on a ten minute basis. It is capable
of higher duty cycles at lower output currents. If the
duty cycle is exceeded, a thermal protector will shut
off the output until the machine cools.
The INVERTER ARC™ 230 is recommended for the
following Electrode Types and Diameters:
