PS 164-2
THE ART OF WELDING
3. Introduction
3. 1. The PS power sources
The power source PS 164-2 belongs to a versatile
new family of universal and easy to use orbital TIG
power sources. Special features are:
• Welding sequences entirely programmable in the
language of the welder.
• Ease of use due to an intuitive programming.
• Integrated program library for quick welding pa-
rameter research.
• Real time monitoring system.
• Integrated printer for documentation of welds ac-
cording to the ISO 9000 standard.
• Possibility of storing programs in the memory of
the power source or on 3,5" disk.
• Modern inverter based power source technology.
• Mechanised welding with the ease and comfort of
PS power sources.
With a weld current range between 1 A and 350 A and
up to six programmable axes the PS power sources
respond to a wide fi eld of applications:
• Pulsed or continuous weld current.
• Travel speed and wire speed continuous or with
pulsation synchronised to the weld current.
• With Arc Voltage Control AVC, the welding of sev-
eral passes without interruption is possible (*).
• Oscillation (*).
• Programmable mass fl owmeter for the shielding
gas.
(*) Only power sources from PSxx6 type
