1.2 prOduCt intrOduCtiOn
Kemppi Minarc is a manual metal arc welding machine, small in size, suitable
for industry, site and repair welding. The unit uses one phase connection
voltage and it is manufactured for two different mains voltages: 230 V (Minarc
150) and 110 V (Minarc 151).
Minarc tolerates a great fluctuation of input voltage and is thus suitable
for work on sites using generator as well as to be used with long power
cables. Inverter technology has been used when designing the unit. Power
regulation in power source is done with IGBT transistors. Welding and
earth cables are supplied with the unit. They are equipped with suitable
connections for the unit electrode holder, earth clamps and connections.
Minarc can also be used for TIG welding. TIG arc is started by scratching.
Ordering numbers of additional equipment for TIG welding can be found in
chapter 5. Ordering numbers.
MInarc 150VRD is equipped with so called Voltage Reduction Device (VRD)
function. VRD maintains open circuit voltage under 35 V.
Minarc 150AU and 120AU for mains voltages 240 V and with VRD function are
on market only for Australia and New Sealand.
