The Clarke MMA200A provides a perfect blend of quality construction, power & control that makes it absolutely ideal for home, garage or mobile repairs. Ultra-lightweight, weighing in at less than 5.5kg, this welder is easy to transport, providing quality ARC welding on the move. Because of the versatility & simplicity of MMA welding, it requires less skill to operate & is used primarily to weld iron & steels (including stainless steel) up to 8mm thick. However, nickel & copper can also be welded using this method. This inverter welder is able to output between 20 & 200A, with an input voltage of 230V/50 Hz. The process of MMA/ARC welding uses a coated consumable electrode (stick) to lay the weld; therefore an additional welding kit is not required. This model has inverter technology that has a high switching frequency, allowing the welder to be more efficient than non-inverter transformer-type welders. Designed by professionals to be easy to use whilst working, this unit comes with a large current control knob
- to allow for easy usage when wearing welding gloves
- plus, a digital display that shows the variable output current clearly, so you are able to see it through your mask. Advanced functions of this welder include built-in Hot Start, which eases striking the arc; Arc Force, which gives a temporary increase of the output current if the arc turns too short, & Anti Stick, which switches off the power source if the electrode sticks to the material. To enhance operator safety the welder also incorporates a Voltage Reduction Safety Device, also known as Anti-Shock, where the output voltage is automatically reduced when the welder is not in use. This MMA200A requires a 32 Amp, 230 Volt supply. Welder supplied with: Electrode holder Earth clamp Weld return cable plus a fixed carry handle
