    The TIG version of the TransPocket 2500 is a digitally-controlled MMA power source system with state-of-the-art resonant intelligence its design was built and constructed to ensure stable arcs consistently. This version applies more functions than its alternative, providing much easier and more relaxed work for the user. During the generator-powered operation, stability is the name of the game with a fluctuating mains voltage of 380-460V with 3 phases. The TransPocket 2500 is ideal for those who are always on the move, as it was constructed to be the most robust and powerful small welding power source Fronius has to offer.
     
    • HotStart – specifically designed to make the electrode easier to ignite
    • SoftStart – developed to ensure a stable arc at the beginning of the welding process
    • TAC – created to ease the process of welding light-gauge sheets without the need for filler metal
    • TIG Comfort Stop – with this feature, the welding current is turned off automatically if a change is made to the arc length

    415v TIG Welders FAQs

    Straight answers to the questions people ask most when choosing and using three phase TIG welders.

    Can I run a three phase TIG welder from a generator?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Sometimes, but only if the generator is a three phase unit suited to the welder. Check the data plate and manual for your machine for its input current and any minimum generator size or type the maker states.

    Generators are rated for balanced three phase loads, and power factor affects the size you need, so allow a generous margin above the welder's input requirement. The output must be stable and well regulated. An undersized or poor quality generator can cause cutting out, an unstable arc or damage to the electronics. If in doubt, ask the maker or a competent electrician before connecting.

    How do I choose the output rating?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Consider the thickest material and the metal. Aluminium needs more current than steel for the same thickness. Choose a machine with a maximum current comfortably above what you will need regularly, since this gives a better duty cycle, a cooler running machine and headroom for heavier jobs.

    Also consider the lowest current. A machine with a low, stable minimum current suits thin material and precise work. A wide range between minimum and maximum makes the machine more versatile.

    What does duty cycle mean?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    Duty cycle is the proportion of a ten minute period that a machine can weld at a given current without overheating. A figure of 60 percent means six minutes welding and four minutes cooling. It falls as current rises.

    For continuous production welding, choose a machine whose duty cycle at your working current is high. Industrial three phase machines are generally built to a higher duty cycle than lighter single phase ones. Check the rating at the current you will actually use.

    AC/DC or DC only: which do I need?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

    A DC machine welds steel, stainless steel, copper and many other metals, but not aluminium or magnesium. An AC/DC machine adds AC output, which cleans the oxide layer on aluminium and magnesium so they can be welded properly.

    If you will ever weld aluminium, choose AC/DC. Look for adjustable AC balance and frequency, which let you tune the cleaning action and the arc focus.
