Introduction
Thank you for buying our product.
In order to get the best performance out of the plant and ensure
the maximum lifespan of its parts, the use and maintenance
instructions contained in this manual must be read and strictly
complied with, as well as the safety instructions contained
in the relevant folder. If repairs to the plant are required, we
recommend that our clients contact our service centre work-
shops, as they have the necessary equipment and personnel
that are specifically trained and constantly updated.
All our machines and equipment are constantly developed and
so changes may be made in terms of their construction and
features.
Description
The PROJECT 1800 HF is the latest evolution of direct current
welding generators, using INVERTER technology. This power-
ful generator, based on latest generation IGBT, can be used for
TIG welding of all metals, excepting aluminium and its alloys.
PROJECT 1800 HF, also excellent for electrode welding, with
its lightness and compactness and first-rate welding charac-
teristics, is ideal for using for maintenance, erection and light
steel structural works.
Main features are:
• Precise and efficient TIG arc striking by high frequency.
• High performance on thin metal sheets.
• Automatic compensation for mains voltage within.
• Low energy consumption and high efficiency.
• The inverter resists ample current variations and can be uti-
lized with very long electric cables.
• Innovative and compact design.
• Load bearing structure in impact-resistant material.
• Control panel protected against accidental impact.
• Robust handle integrated into the chassis.
• Neck strap built into the equipment.
•
Clearly visible front panel from any angle, for easy reading
and setting of parameters.
• Reduced weight and dimensions, easy-to-carry.
•
The generator also conforms to all European Union stand-
ards and directives in force.
