General Characteristics 

The 

ASKAYNAK Inverter 201-TIG PFC

 is an inverter type TIG-MMA welding machine manufactured 

using the latest PFC (Power Factor Correction) technology. Starting from the 1980s, the welding 
machines in the market have been sized down thanks to the inverter arc welding machines appearing 
in the market while increasing the efficiency. However, many semi-conductor devices (i.e. diodes, 
transistors, IGBTs etc.) used in such machines chop the mains voltage for use, hence distorting the 
wave-form of the mains supply that result in harmonic waves. The total current drawn by the machine 
from the mains (RMS) includes all such harmonic components. With the PFC technology, active 
PWM technique is used for filtering out the harmonic components drawn from the mains although 
they are not used by the machine.
The 

Askaynak Inverter 201-TIG PFC

 welding machine draws maximum 33A of current from the 

mains instead of 44A, thus increasing the energy efficiency. With this property, the 

Askaynak 

Inverter 201-TIG PFC

 reduces the amount of energy used, hence the operating costs, for the 

consumers while reducing the pollution in the transmission and distribution lines, contributing to the 
sustainable development through the reduction of power losses.
The 

Askaynak Inverter 201-TIG PFC

 is a shielded electrode and TIG welding machines operates in 

the CC characteristic and features igniting with HF (high frequency), down slope, up slope, hot start 
and short circuit protection properties:

Operating principle:

 The 220 VAC mains power is converted in to 380 VDC by the PFC. The half 

bridge inverter structure converts the DC voltage ib to AC voltage again, which is reduced by a 
transformer. The reduced voltage rectified again, filtered and sent to the output.
