completely
digitised,
microprocessor
controlled inverter power source with an
included wire feeder and is suitable for wire
spools with max. diameter of 300 mm (11.81
in.).
The power source is generator-compatible. It
is exceptionally sturdy in day-to-day
operation thanks to the protected control
elements and its powder-coated housing.

properties. The wire feeder is also suitable
for long hose packages.
