The welders come in Red or Yellow paint finish. Both are made by the same factory and branded differently for varying markets but are the same machine.
The welder has dual purpose DC Pulsed TIG and Stick welder modes and comes complete with everything required to start welding immediately out of the box. This unit can deliver a full 160 Amps to your work piece or as little as 5 Amps subject to the setting you have on the current adjustment knob. In stick mode the max output is also 160 Amps which will enable the use of 4mm electrodes.The power source weighs 9.5 kilos so is quite easy to carry around. The total package weight as shipped is close to 15 Kilos.
The unit has a built in gas solenoid valve . What this means is that the shielding gas ( argon ) is connected to the rear of the machine whilst the gas supply to the gun is connected at the front panel. When you wish to weld, the solenoid allows gas to flow down into the gun. Have alook at some of the cheaper machines on the market and you will see they do not have a solenoid as there is no gas connection for the TIG gun on the front of the machine. With the cheaper ones you have to control the gas manually. Gas flow is activated when you hit the trigger on the TIG gun along with the high frequency arc initiator.
This unit has welding current parameter controls. You can control current down slope and pulse frequency or no frequency for straight DC out. The frequency settings are 2 Hertz for low and 200 Hz for high. The down slope is used to set the amount of time it takes for the current to diminish to zero after you release the trigger.
This unit has a high frequency arc initiator . What this means to you is that you do not ever need to touch the Tungsten electrode to the work piece to get an arc started because a high frequency arc starter is built in. The less sofisticated TIG units require a scratch start or lift start. Scratch and lift arc starting may contaminate your weld. Not to mention it is cumbersome.
