PATON ECO DC MMA
1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
Inverter rectifiers PATON MINI, ECO-160, ECO-200, ECO-250 are designed for
direct current manual arc welding (MMA). This Eco series is intended for
demanding users, who need the most compact and powerful machine with full
rated current of 1 5 0 A / 160 A / 200 A / 250 A respectively. This current is enough
to work with any electrodes from
Ø 1.6 mm to Ø 5 mm in diameter, including high ‐
melting electrodes. At the same time, its load duration is 40% and higher, which
is more than enough for most applications more demanding than household use
(workshops, motor transport services etc.).
All brand ECO models produced by PATON are equipped with a
built‐ in
undervoltage protection unit.
Due to increased frequency of voltage supplied to the transformer, the
transformer can be made tenfold smaller.
That’s why weight and overall
dimensions of this machine is several times smaller than those of regular
equipment with identical output parameters.
Main advantages:
1. In addition to voltage surge protection, the machine is equipped with a
stabilization system for
large long‐term voltage variations in the supply
mains from 170 V to 260V. However, minimum voltage of 170 V allows
welding with an electrode not more than
Ø 3 mm in diameter.
2. The machine fits standard domestic power mains. Due to high efficiency
factor, the source provides
twice lower power consumption compared to
regular sources.
3. Convenient use due to high load duration (LD) at rated current , which
enables continuous welding with Ø 3 mm electrodes at their rated current.
4. Increased machine reliability in dusty production environment.
5. All electronic parts of the machine are impregnated with two layers of
high ‐ quality varnish which ensures product reliability during the entire
service life.
6. Smooth adjustment of arc current.
7. Enhanced arcing stability.
