6.2
PRE-WELDING GAS PURGING
This function is necessary to protect the welded area from the harmful effects of atmospheric air and
consists in pre-cleaning the welded area with shielding gas against electric arcing. By default, the
blowing time
[Pre Flow]
is set to
1.0 s,
this value can be changed at any time at your discretion.
The mode for changing the value of any function in the current welding method, see section 8.3.

PULSED CURRENT WELDING FUNCTION WITH RIV FUNCTION
The mode for changing the value of any function in the current welding method, see section 8.3.

PEAK CURRENT FUNCTION
Peak current is the maximum amount of current that the output power can be obtained for a short
time. When a power supply or electrical device is turned on, a high initial current flows into the load,
starting from zero and rising until it reaches a peak value, known as peak current. This is usually
much more than the DC current. The current will then gradually decrease from the peak current to the
steady state in which it stabilizes. The peak current should be within safe limits and should only last
for a short time to avoid component stress or overheating or damage.
The mode for changing the value of any function in the current welding method, see section 8.3.
