TransPocket TIG

The TIG series of the TransPocket is available in the 150 to 350 A power categories. Thanks to their additional functions, they make work easier for the user: with the TIG Comfort Stop, it is possible to prevent annoying arc breaks at the end of welding. The TIG pulsed-arc function ensures better control of the weld pool during out-of-position welding and when bridging gaps. A gas-test function has also been provided.

The new generation of TransPocket 150/180 devices brings a high degree of flexibility. The integrated PFC (Power Factor Correction) technology supports the use of extremely long mains leads of up to 100 m in length. The operating concept has also become even more intuitive. A 7-segment display makes it possible to quickly read off the parameters that have been configured. In addition, the display is slightly set back and therefore well protected against damage. Easily comprehensible setup settings are a tremendous help in simplifying operation.

Functions

HotStart

To make the electrode easier to ignite, the current at the power source is increased for a fraction of a second during ignition. The HotStart function was specially developed for welding with rutile and Cel electrodes.

SoftStart

The SoftStart function ensures a stable arc at the start of welding and was specially developed for electrodes that are welded with a low welding current (basic electrodes).

TAC

With TAC, one spot is all it takes for tacking, because the pulsed arc sets the two weld pools in motion, making them jump together in next to no time, to make one single weld-pool. The TAC function is also very useful when welding light-gauge sheets without filler metal.

TIG Comfort Stop

At the end of the welding operation, the welding current is switched off automatically if a specific change is made to the arc length. This prevents the arc being unnecessarily elongated when the TIG welding torch is lifted off the workpiece to end the welding process. This results in a better weld result in the area of the end-crater, as the gas shield is maintained.

country-specific product variants

No grid-voltage dependence

The power sources are available in country-specific variants, meaning they can also be used in regions with differing mains voltages. For more information, please contact your local Fronius contact.
