Description
VIPER ARC160
Light Industrial DC Arc Welder
230V Single Phase 160 Amp DC Welder
Small, Lightweight and Portable
The VIPER160 is a new generation, low cost welding machine produced using the latest in IGBT inverter technology. Designed to meet the needs of the price conscious non-commercial user without compromising on quality, this machine is as reliable and
robust as you would expect a machine bearing the Xcel-Arc name to be. The DC MMA welding function delivers a smooth and incredibly stable arc allowing easy welding with electrodes producing high quality welds including cast Iron, stainless steel and low hydrogen. The VIPER160 is also equipped with DC Scratch Start Tig capability and connection of the XA17V Tig torch allows DC Tig welding of steel, stainless steel, bronze and copper. The VIPER160 is an exceptional machine for the price and is suitable for a wide range of applications including light fabrication, farming and whatever else a Kiwi bloke might be working on in his shed. The VIPER160 offers great portability with the power to get the job done and with the convenience 230V single phase connection.
