Important Information
The R2500 is a 250 constant current welding power source
based on IGBT technology. The Inverter drive circuitry operates
above the audio frequency spectrum making the R2500 virtu-
ally silent in operation. The high operational frequency also
means that the R2500 is able to respond quickly to changing
arc dynamics, making for a very smooth , stable arc.
The R2500 is capable of TIG welding with the addition of an
external TIG control unit (TIG300).
