BRIEF INTRODUCTION

Your welding machine is an excellent AC/
DC pulsed TIG arc welder which adopts the
latest pulse medium frequency width modu-
lation (PWM) technology. It is characterized
with portable, small size, light weight, low
consumption etc.
This welding machine has good performan-
ce: constant current output, fast response,
HF striking arc, and the welding current can
be adjusted steplessly and pre-set. It can
work in 2 Stroke or 4 Stroke mode.
It also has automatic protection functions:
short-circuit, over-voltage, less-voltage, over-
current, and over-heat. If any one of the abo-
ve problems happens, the alarm lamp on the
front panel will be lighted and output current
will be shut off automatically to protect the
unit itself and prolong the using life.

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

• DC Pulsed TIG and MMA, AC pulsed
in TIG, adopt IGBT and advanced PWM
technology ;
• High performance MCU, digital con-
trol, digital display;
• More simple and intuitive parameter
adjustment;
• HF ignition;
• Protection against the arc interruption;
in the event that the arc is interrupted, the
high frequency will keep the arc stable;
• Protection of the tungsten electrode;
should the electrode touch the piece du-

TECHNICAL DATA

You may find the data table of your machi-
ne in the last page of this manual.
The data may also vary according to the
torch that is gonna be used with the ge-
nerator.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

The working principle of your welding ma-
chine is shown as the following figure. Sin-
gle phase work frequency AC 115/230V (50
Hz) is rectified into DC (about 380V), then is
converted to medium frequency AC (about
44KHz) by inverter device (IGBT). The me-
dium frequency voltage is reduced by a tran-
sformer (the main transformer), rectified by a
medium frequency rectifier (fast recovery dio-
de) and is output direct or alternating accor-
ding to the setting. The circuit adopts current
feedback control technology to insure current
output stably.
