Welding inverter

Welding inverter TIG163AC/DC intended for argon (TIG) welding of aluminum on alternating current and welding of all other metals in the dc mode (TIG / MMA).

The front panel of the welding inverter is the:

• main power switch;
  
• LED emergency mode;
  
• thermal overload indicator;
  
• digital display for presetting the welding current;
• controls:

1. time purging gas before and after welding;
   
2. the welding current;
   
3. the balance of the welding current;
   
4. welding time of the crater.

• switches:
  

1. welding method (TIG / MMA);
   
2. type of welding current (AC / DC);
3. mode (2T/4T).
   

High-frequency oscillator welding inverter provides noncontact ignition of the arc.

Welding inverter has a built-in fan for forced cooling and thermal protection against overheating. Welding in TIG mode can be switched from a button on the burner or with a foot pedal for which there is a corresponding slot.

Argon welding of aluminum is performed only on alternating current.

Adjust the balance of the AC welding current can change the width of the zone of cleaning and penetration depth of the base metal. Position control welding inverter at zero corresponds to the 50% balance, with positive and negative half-wave have the same value. For welding of pure metals balance the current set between 30-40%, it increases the resistance of the tungsten electrode. For welding aluminum with a thick oxide film balance value set of 50% and above, but you must watch the state of the tungsten electrode. Set values of welding current and the balance should not lead to overheating and melting of the size of the tungsten electrode.
