ARC255
The Multi-Voltage ARC Welder (1PH & 3PH 160V–460V) is an advanced, heavy-duty welding solution designed for industrial, construction, and maintenance environments. With its wide voltage adaptability, adjustable arc control, and robust safety features, this welder ensures stable performance even under challenging power conditions — making it ideal for professional welders and field operations.
Key Features
1. Wide Voltage Adaptability – 1PH & 3PH 160V–460V
This machine supports both single-phase and three-phase input power, covering a wide voltage range from 160V to 460V. It ensures consistent welding performance even in unstable or fluctuating power environments, especially suitable for construction sites, workshops, and generator-powered operations.
2. Adjustable Arc Start and Arc Force
Operators can fine-tune the arc start and arc force settings to match various electrode types and welding conditions. This feature guarantees easy arc ignition, smooth arc stability, and optimal penetration across different metals and thicknesses. Whether you are performing root passes or overhead welding, precise control delivers perfect weld results every time.
3. VRD Function for Enhanced Safety
The built-in Voltage Reduction Device (VRD) automatically lowers the open-circuit voltage when the welder is not in use. This function greatly improves operator safety, particularly in damp or confined working environments, minimizing electric shock risks during electrode replacement or standby operation.
4. Internal Anti-Stick Technology
The anti-stick system prevents the electrode from sticking to the workpiece during welding. By reducing current automatically when a short circuit occurs, it ensures smoother operation, prevents overheating, and extends the lifespan of both electrodes and the machine.
5. Special Dustproof Structure for Longevity
The welder features a reinforced dustproof internal design, effectively preventing metal dust, debris, and moisture from damaging the internal electronic components. This structure is particularly valuable for workshops, construction sites, and other dusty environments, significantly increasing service life and reliability.
6. Compatible with Cellulose Electrodes
Designed with powerful dynamic response and stable output, this welder fully supports cellulose electrodes (E6010, E6011), which are commonly used for pipeline, structural, and outdoor welding. It ensures deep penetration, fast solidification, and excellent vertical-down performance — ideal for high-strength welds in demanding field conditions.
7. Generator Compatible – Flexible Power Options
The generator-compatible design makes this machine perfect for remote locations without grid access. It can maintain stable welding output even when powered by a generator, offering unmatched flexibility for off-site repair or field construction work.
