Portable Tradesarc 250 is versatile for MMA and Tig welding
Murex Welding Products is launching the Tradesarc 250, a robust and durable welding unit designed for the professional welder. It is a 400V three-phase portable power source equipped with a Power Factor Connection (PFC) circuit, making it possible to use the full range of the machine on a 10A fuse. The PFC also protects the machine against fluctuating mains voltage and makes it safer to use with a generator. It can operate with mains cables over 100m long, providing a larger working radius.
The Tradesarc 250 features large cable connectors for higher durability. Its compact design, with its impact-resistant polymer casing, is light and easy to carry, yet the size does not compromise the important cooling of the internal components. The design also helps to keep all sensitive parts inside the machine clean and dust-free. It is protected to IP23 standard, which means it can be used outdoors.
Two control panels are available, both with a digital display and a remote control function. The basic panel has a choice of MMA or TIG welding with LiveTig start in TIG mode. The more advanced panel gives hot-start and arc force control to fine-tune the welding, a choice of MMA or TIG welding, LiveTig start in TIG mode, two memories and remote control facility. In MMA mode, the electrode type can be chosen and the machine optimises the welding performance automatically. Both panels are easy to understand and set.
Typical applications
A professional welding machine for indoor and outdoor use, the Tradesarc 250 can be used for applications including repair and maintenance work, typically in ship and boatyards, building and construction, the offshore industry, power generation and the process industries.
All types of electrodes from 1.6-5mm including basic, rutile, cellulosic and high-recovery can be used with the Tradesarc 250 to weld alloys, non-alloyed steels, stainless steels and cast iron.
