Featuring advanced GYS power management technology, both integrated Flexible Voltage which automatically adapts to any voltage in the range 85-265V and Power Factor Correction (PFC) technology which substantially increases efficiency. In combination these features overcome power supply problems caused by imperfect generators or long extension leads.
A feature of these machines is the synergic welding technology from GYS, which gives the welder excellent welding characteristics including a perfectly controlled welding current to give a very stable arc producing a smooth weld bead requiring no further finishing – to achieve this, all the welder has to do is program the current and sheet thickness, then weld. If he/she wishes, traditional manual setting of the welding parameters can be selected. On the front panel two control knobs and a large digital screen allows the welder to easily set the required parameters.
The specification also extends to both machines being supplied with a Euro removable welding torch and earth clamp plus a fixed power cable. Also unusually for such a machine the Pearl XL will accommodate a large 15kg wire reel and feeding it through a 4 roller system.
Both machines are designed for small to medium sized companies undertaking light fabrication and maintenance work, craftsmen and DIY enthusiasts and are suitable for welding mild steel, aluminium and stainless steel using standard MIG or Flux Cored welding wires.
The 230V PEARL is rated 120A @ 60% duty cycle using a 13A plug and 0.6mm – 0.8mm diameter MIG wire as well as 0.9mm flux cored wires, both from either 100mm or 200mm diameter wire spools. It weighs 10kg.
