2.2 Working Principle
The operating principle of the Taurus TIG200ACDC-HF-P welding machines is depicted in the
following figure. Single-phase 220V inlet AC frequency is rectified to DC (approximately 321V), then
converted to a medium AC frequency (approximately 20KHz) by an inverter device (IGBT module).
After voltage reduction by the main medium transformer and rectified by a medium frequency rectifier
(fast recovery diodes), the output to AC or DC is selected by an IGBT module. The circuit employs
current feedback control technology to ensure current output stability. In addition, the welding current
parameters can be adjusted continuously to meet the welding requirements.
