The TransTig 2200 Job is the latest in the range of portable machines released by Fronius.
Its small and rugged design is beneficial to those workers who are always on the go and/or under tough site conditions. This welding machine was created to have a long service life span and pride itself on having a state-of-the-art operating system. The TransTig 2200 Job is an extremely light yet powerful welding machine. It can work on a 230V connection and can weld any low or high-alloy steel and non-ferrous metal. Job mode enables cold wire control and automated use.

Straight answers to the questions people ask most when choosing and using single phase TIG welders.
Single phase 230 volt is the supply found in homes, small workshops and many units, so a machine designed for it can be used almost anywhere without needing a three phase installation. Modern inverter designs draw relatively low current for the welding power they produce.That makes these machines popular for fabrication, repair, motorsport, restoration, pipework and light industrial work, as well as for home use.
The supply limits the maximum welding current. A standard 13 amp socket gives less power than a dedicated higher-rated supply, so the output you can use continuously may be lower than the machine's maximum. Check the data plate for the input current at full output, and what protection it needs.For higher currents or heavier duty, a dedicated circuit installed by a competent electrician may be needed. Do not assume a plug-in connection will suit full output.
DC machines weld steel, stainless steel, copper and other metals except aluminium. AC/DC machines add alternating current, which breaks up the oxide layer on aluminium and magnesium, so they are needed for those metals.If you will weld aluminium at all, choose AC/DC. If you only weld steel, stainless and similar metals, DC is simpler and more economical. AC/DC machines normally also offer controls for balance and frequency, to fine-tune the arc.
Think about the thickest material you will weld and the process, and choose a rating with some margin. Aluminium needs considerably more current than steel for the same thickness, and heavier sections need more again.Also consider duty cycle, which describes how much of each ten minute period the machine can weld at a given current. A machine rated well above your usual working current runs cooler, lasts longer and is more pleasant to use.
