Explore the Advanced Capabilities of TELWIN SUPERIOR TIG 422 WAVE AC/DC 230V/400V.
? Aluminum Welding Perfection with WAVE OS Technology
TIG AC welding of aluminum requires absolute precision and control over the arc. The TELWIN SUPERIOR TIG 422 WAVE with the innovative WAVE OS (Waveform Advanced Control System) takes these capabilities to a whole new level. This system allows you to choose the optimal AC waveform – from the classic square wave, to the mild sine wave, to the concentrated triangular or specialized mixed waves. Each waveform offers different arc properties, affecting the depth of fusion, weld width and cleaning effect.
A key parameter is the AC balance, which in the SUPERIOR TIG 422 WAVE can be precisely adjusted. Increasing the proportion of the positive half-wave intensifies the cathodic cleaning effect, removing stubborn aluminum oxides, while increasing the proportion of the negative half-wave ensures deeper fusion. Another element is the AC current frequency (Hz), an increase of which results in a more focused and stable arc, ideal for precision work and welding thin sheet metal. With WAVE OS, the welder has full authority over the process, resulting in welds with excellent metallurgical quality, aesthetics and minimal defects, even with the most demanding aluminum alloys.
⚡ 230V/400V Power Flexibility – Power Where You Need It
One of the greatest advantages of the TELWIN SUPERIOR TIG 422 WAVE welder is its remarkable power supply flexibility. The device can be connected to both a standard single-phase 230V network and an industrial three-phase 400V network, automatically adjusting its working parameters. This is a huge convenience for professionals working in a variety of locations – from well-equipped production halls to smaller workshops or even assembly work in the field, where access to three-phase power may be limited.
Importantly, even with a 230V single-phase power supply, the welder offers impressive power and high welding current (up to 270A TIG) to handle most common tasks. The SUPERIOR TIG 422 WAVE develops its full capabilities, up to 400A for TIG and 350A for MMA, when connected to a 400V power supply. This versatility, combined with advanced inverter electronics that ensure performance stability regardless of fluctuations in line voltage, makes it a reliable partner in all conditions, eliminating the need for multiple devices.
? TIG Pulsation and Special Features – Precision in Every Detail
The TELWIN SUPERIOR TIG 422 WAVE is a veritable arsenal of advanced TIG features for masterful precision. Advanced TIG pulsing (available for both DC and AC) enables precise control of arc line energy. By adjusting the pulse frequency, base current, peak current and fill factor, the welder can minimize thermal distortion, control weld pool size and achieve perfect fusion, especially when welding thin sheet metal, stainless steel or heat-sensitive materials. For convenience, there is an EASY PULSE function that automatically configures the pulse parameters.
The device also offers a number of special functions, such as Q-START (Quick Start), which optimizes the ignition parameters, providing an instant and reliable arc start, which is particularly useful for spot welding or short stitches. The THINSPOT function was developed specifically for precise and fast spot welding of thin sheets, minimizing the risk of burn-through. MULTIDOT TIG allows you to create a series of quick spots, ideal for tacking or aesthetic intermittent welding. And DYNAMIC ARC provides real-time dynamic control of arc parameters, stabilizing the arc even in difficult conditions. All this translates into higher weld quality, increased productivity and operator comfort.

Key Features and Benefits
- ? WAVE OS (Waveform Advanced Control System): This innovative Telwin technology gives you complete control over the alternating current (AC) waveform during TIG welding. You can choose from standard waveforms (square, sine, triangle) and advanced mixed waveforms, and precisely adjust AC balance (affecting cleaning and penetration) and AC frequency (affecting arc concentration). For the professional, this means the ability to perfectly adjust the parameters for welding aluminum and its alloys, magnesium, ensuring excellent surface preparation, deep penetration, a stable and focused arc and an aesthetic weld face. This reduces the risk of electrode sticking and porosity, resulting in the highest quality joints and saving time on post-processing.
- ⚡ Dual Power Voltage (230V/400V) and High Power: The flexibility of single-phase (230V) and three-phase (400V) power supply allows the welder to be used in almost any environment – from smaller workshops to large industrial plants. Despite the ability to operate on 230V, the unit still offers impressive welding current. When powered by 400V, the SUPERIOR TIG 422 WAVE unleashes the full potential of 400A, which, combined with its high duty cycle, guarantees continuous operation even in the most demanding applications and welding of thick sections. That’s versatility without compromising on performance.
- Pulsation Precision TIG Pulsation with EASY PULSE Function: The device offers advanced TIG pulse welding modes in both DC and AC. The ability to adjust pulse frequency, base current, peak current and pulse fill factor allows precise control of the amount of heat input. This is crucial when welding thin materials (minimizing distortion and burn-through), materials with different thermal conductivities and when working in forced positions. The EASY PULSE function automatically selects the optimal pulse parameters, which significantly simplifies setup and speeds up work, while guaranteeing excellent results even for less experienced operators.
- ? Intuitive Interface with TFT Color Display: The TELWIN SUPERIOR TIG 422 WAVE features a modern, easy-to-read TFT color display and an ergonomic control panel. Navigating the menu and setting welding parameters, even the most advanced ones (such as Q-START, MULTIDOT, DYNAMIC ARC), is simple and intuitive. The graphical presentation of parameters and the ability to save up to 99 custom welding programs significantly improves daily work, reduces changeover time and minimizes the risk of errors.
- ?️ Expanded TIG and MMA Functions for Maximum Versatility: In addition to standard settings, the welder offers a range of specialized TIG functions such as BI-LEVEL (switching between two current levels), HF/LIFT Arc Striking (non-contact or contact ignition), Q-START (quick ignition), MULTIDOT TIG (intermittent welding to minimize distortion), DYNAMIC ARC (dynamic arc control), and THINSPOT (precision spot welding of thin sheets). For MMA welding, adjustable Arc Force, Hot Start, and Anti-Stick functions are available for easy ignition, stable arc, and prevention of electrode sticking. This versatility makes it an ideal tool for a wide range of applications.
- ? Integrated Liquid Cooling System (AQUA): Model part number 816158 comes with a powerful liquid cooling module for the welding handle. This is indispensable for TIG welding with high currents and long duty cycles, protecting the handle from overheating and ensuring operator comfort.
