ARC 203 inverter welder for welding with covered electrodes using direct current (DC).
If you are one of those people who prefer proven, dependable equipment, read the description of the ARC 203 inverter welder for welding with covered electrodes using direct current (DC) below. It is intended for welding with rutile and basic electrodes up to 4 mm on various grades of steel (low carbon, low alloy, stainless and similar) and on cast iron. The ARC 203 has a digital display of the welding current and a simple system of indicator lights. The LEDs on the front panel show connection to the mains (green LED) or a shutdown caused by overload (red LED). At work you will also make good use of the electronically controlled stepless adjustment of the welding current and of the dedicated overload protection of the machine.
The ARC 203 inverter welder has functions that make welding easier:
HOT START: raises the welding current while the arc is being struck, so the electrode ignites more easily
, ARC FORCE (arc dynamics): shortens the arc as the welding current rises, which improves the transfer of molten droplets from the electrode to the workpiece and keeps the arc from going out when the electrode touches the material
, ANTI STICK: limits the welding current and keeps the electrode from sticking to the workpiece
The small, light design means the ARC 203 inverter welder for welding with covered electrodes using direct current (DC) is used for repair work in workshop conditions and for jobs carried out in the field.
Equipment
The welder is supplied with:
• 2m cable with a 200A electrode holder (DX50)
• 1.6m cable with a 300A earth clamp (DX50)
• welding mask
• 2m supply cable with a 230V plug
