To ensure the welding process with the required quality, it is important to decide in advance on a specific model of the welding machine, the capabilities and parameters will allow you to do the job ahead in the best way.
Choosing a household welding machine
If you need welding at the dacha or on your own farm, it may not be easy to buy an optimal welding device designed specifically for everyday tasks ... The choice is not limited only by the cost of the device, but also by the set of functionality, it must also correspond to the specifics of the upcoming work.
It will become easier to choose the right inverter welding machine if you take into account a couple of really important nuances that determine the reliability of the device.
1. Availability of built-in ventilation. It is known that the "filling" of an inverter device is very sensitive to dust settling on it. At the same time, they are necessarily supplemented with fans, which, while cooling the device, pull dust, to reduce which some manufacturers install a tunnel ventilation system. This option really protects the elements from dust, but the cost of the device also increases. Therefore, a conventional welding inverter is sufficient, just periodically clean the device with a soft brush and subsequent blowing.
2. Protection against possible power surges. A significant part of inverter devices cannot withstand significant voltage fluctuations, therefore, they are equipped with protective electronics that are triggered at certain intervals of surges. So, the wider this interval is, the higher the level of protection will be, but the cost of the device also increases. When using the welding machine exclusively for domestic purposes, 15% of the voltage deviation indicator is sufficient.
