Summary of Contents for R2500

Page 1: ...ut prior notice R2500 Important Information The R2500 is a 250 constant current welding power source based on IGBT technology The Inverter drive circuitry operates above the audio frequency spectrum making the R2500 virtu ally silent in operation The high operational frequency also means that the R2500 is able to respond quickly to changing arc dynamics making for a very smooth stable arc The R250...
