Alternating current frequency (TIG AC)
50 Hz to 200 Hz (1 Hz increments).
Constriction and stabilisation of the arc:
The cleaning effect increases with a greater frequency. Particularly thin panels (welding
with a low current), anodised sheet aluminium or highly contaminated articles for
welding can be welded and cleaned perfectly at a higher frequency.
Frequency fast TIG DC pulses
Setting range: 50 Hz to 15 kHz
