DESCRIPTION
Thank you for choosing this machine! To get the most out of your purchase, please read the following
information before using the machine.
The TIG 200 AC/DC, TIG 200 L AC/DC is a portable, single phase, ventilated Inverter welding unit to be used
with non-consumable electrode (TIG) in direct (DC) or alternative (AC) current. TIG welding requires a
gaseous protection (Argon). In MMA mode, it allows you to weld with any kind of electrodes: rutile, basic,
stainless steel or cast iron. The TIG 200 L AC/DC has an integrated liquid cooling system. The TIG 200
AC/DC, TIG 200 L AC/DC can be equipped with a remote control or foot pedal. (This is available separately
as an option). They work with a single phase 230V input for the TIG 200 L AC/DC, a single phase input
spread between 85V to 265V for the TIG 200 AC/DC. They are protected for a use on electric generators.
POWER SUPPLY – STARTING UP
This device is delivered with a plug 16A type CEE7/7. The TIG 200 L AC/DC must be connected to a socket
•
230V (50-60Hz) WITH earth. The TIG 200 AC/DC integrates a « Flexible Voltage » system and can be
used on a power supply variable between 85V and 265V (50 – 60 Hz) WITH earth. The absorbed current
(I1eff) is indicated on the device, for its maximum setting. Check that the power supply and its protection
(fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible with the current needed by the machine. In some countries, it
may be necessary to change the plug to allow the use at maximum settings.
The starting up is made by pushing on the standby button
•
The device turns into protection mode if the power supply tension is over 265V. To indicate this default,

socket delivering the correct tension.
NB: The product has a useful function "check supply voltage": To do this press simultaneously the keys
n°12 "welding mode" and n°13 "TIG trigger control" and the display will indicate the voltage of your
power supply.
Ventilator: in MMA mode, the ventilator operates permanently. In TIG mode, the ventilator only operates
•
during the welding phase, and then stops after cooling.
These are Class A devices. They are designed to be used in an industrial or professional environment. In a
•
different environment, it can be difficult to ensure electromagnetic compatibility, due to conducted
disturbances as well as radiation. They comply with the norm IEC 61000-3-12.
WELDING WITH COVERED ELECTRODE (MMA MODE)
Getting Started
Connect the electrode holder and earth clamp to the corresponding sockets.
•
Ensure that the welding polarities and intensities indicated on the electrode packaging are observed.
•
Remove the electrode from the electrode holder when the machine is not in use.
•
Integrated welding assistance
Your device is equipped with 3 specific functions :
Hot Start gives an adjustable* overcurrent at the beginning of welding.
Arc Force delivers an overcurrent which avoids sticking when the electrode enters the welding pool.
Anti-Sticking allows easy removal of the electrode in case of sticking.
Selection of process and current setting

Adjustable* Hot Start
The Hot Start is adjustable (between 0 and 60%) within the limit of 160A.
1- Press and hold the "Hot Start" button.
2- Select the required setting.
N.B. : the display "HI" indicates that the Hot Start is at maximum.
