Promotional set with the Ideal Expert TIG 210 AC/DC PFC welder. Free of charge you get an APS-616G BLACK True Colour auto-darkening helmet, a CO2/Ar regulator with flowmeter, a TIGBOX 17-18-26 1.6 AC kit and 20 TIG welding rods 1.6 AlMg5. The welder is a portable IGBT inverter for TIG and TIG Pulse (AC, DC, MIX) and MMA. On AC you weld aluminium, on DC stainless steel, carbon and low-alloy steels, copper and titanium.

Features
TIG modes: AC, DC, MIX and pulse
You can choose TIG AC, TIG AC Pulse, TIG DC, TIG DC Pulse, TIG MIX, TIG spot, TIG 2-Level and MMA. TIG MIX combines direct and alternating current, which on aluminium gives full penetration and effective cleaning. Spot mode is for tacking thin material, and in 2-Level you switch between a higher and a lower current with the torch trigger.
Pulse and arc ignition
With the pulse parameters you influence the weld shape and how focused the arc is, and the lower heat input helps on thin material. You strike the arc without contact (HF) or by touch (LIFT). Use LIFT where electromagnetic interference can disturb the surroundings. The torch trigger works in 2T or 4T (latch for long welds).
Panel and advanced settings
On the digital display you set gas pre-flow and post-flow, the currents, up-slope and down-slope times, pulse, AC frequency, HOT START and ARC FORCE. In the advanced menu you choose control from the panel or by foot pedal, save 10 programs and change the ignition polarity for TIG DC.
MMA: HOT START, ARC FORCE, ANTI STICK, VRD
HOT START supplies a higher current at ignition, and you set how long it lasts. ARC FORCE helps droplets transfer to the weld pool and keeps the arc from going out. ANTI STICK cuts the voltage when the electrode sticks. VRD lowers the open circuit voltage to a safe level when you work in damp conditions. You switch it on in the menu.
PFC and construction
The PFC module raises the power factor and cuts the current drawn from the mains by 30%, so a 16 A fuse is enough for the welder. A fan cools the inside, and the circuit has overload protection.
