SPECIFICATIONS

The 

EASTWOOD ARC200I WELDER

 provides a convenient method of performing “stick” welding carbon steel or stainless steel. Inverter Technology provides the 

capability of welding thin or heavy gauge steel with precision and ease. When adding the optional Arc Welder TIG Torch, Gas Regulator, and a cylinder of shielding 
gas, the ARC200i becomes a TIG welder.

DUTY CYCLE

The rated Duty cycle refers to the amount of welding that can be done within an amount of time. The Eastwood ARC200i has a duty cycle of 15% at 200 Amps. It 
is easiest to look at your welding time in blocks of 10 Minutes and the Duty Cycle being a percentage of that 10 Minutes. If welding at 200 Amps with a 15% Duty 
Cycle, within a 10 Minute block of time you can weld for 1-1/2 Minutes with 8-1/2 Minutes of cooling for the welder. 
If the Duty Cycle is exceeded, the Welder will automatically shut off, however the fan will continue running to cool the overheated components. When a safe tempera-
ture has been reached, the Welder will automatically switch the welder output back on. To increase the duty cycle you can turn down the Amperage Output control.
