FRONIUS TRANSTIG 170 DC

The TransTig is a completely digitised TIG DC power source. Alongside the different power categories from 80 to 500 A, the devices also vary in their mobility – from the mobile, portable device to the stationary, high-power complete system. However, they all have one thing in common – an extremely robust design for a long service life and an exceptionally self-explanatory operating concept.

When developing the TransTig 170/210, our focus was entirely on the benefit for our customers. What is needed is absolutely clear: a perfect, stable arc. The higher operating frequency of the inverter technology makes this stability possible - due to precise control. Other benefits of this optimized process technology are maximum efficiency in the duty cycle, the output power and the mains voltage supply. Last but not least, this increased efficiency also makes welding more enjoyable!

Functions

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.

HF IGNITION
The touchless and gentle high-frequency ignition is the easiest option for igniting the arc.

TOUCHDOWN IGNITION
Touchdown ignition can be used in particular for sensitive application areas. This allows electromagnetic interference, which can occur during HF ignition, to be avoided.

400 V PROTECTIVE CIRCUIT
The 400 V protective circuit prevents damage when the device is connected to a power supply that is too high.

TIME-SHUT-DOWN/ STANDBY MODE
After a defined period of time, the power module switches off and enters standby mode. This mode reduces energy consumption considerably!

PFC – POWER FACTOR CORRECTION
The Power Factor Correction ensures sinusoidal current consumption, making effective use of the available power – only as much power is drawn from the mains as necessary. In addition to energy savings, this results in longer grid leads, improved generator compatibility, and higher welding currents – without tripping the circuit breaker.

LOW POWER CONSUMPTION
Thanks to an improved power module design and Power Factor Correction technology, the TransTig 170/210 uses up to 40% less input power than comparable competitor devices – with the same output power.
