It runs on a single-phase 230 V supply, which suits home workshops, farms and small fabrication shops that want one compact machine for several processes.<\/p>\n<h3>Key features<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>160 A inverter welder with stick, MIG, TIG, lift and pulse functions, plus cutting<\/li>\n<li>Takes 0.6\u20131.0 mm contact tips, 1.6\u20134.0 mm ARC electrodes and 1.6\u20132.4 mm TIG electrodes<\/li>\n<li>Two LED digital displays<\/li>\n<li>Rated duty cycle of 30%<\/li>\n<li>Cutting thickness listed as 6\u201312 mm<\/li>\n<li>Single-phase 230 V, 50 Hz input<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Choosing the right one<\/h3>\n<p>Choose a multi-process welder by the work you do most. The 30% rated duty cycle means the machine is designed to weld for about 3 minutes in every 10 at its rated output before it needs to cool, so it suits intermittent work rather than long continuous runs. Check that your single-phase supply can carry the 30.4 A rated input current, and stock consumables in the sizes it takes: 0.6\u20131.0 mm contact tips for MIG, 1.6\u20134.0 mm electrodes for stick and 1.6\u20132.4 mm electrodes for TIG.<\/p>\n<h3>Specifications<\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Brand<\/th>\n<td>Promax<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>SKU \/ model<\/th>\n<td>PMF-160<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Product type<\/th>\n<td>MIG Welder<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Input power<\/th>\n<td>230V-50Hz<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Phase<\/th>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Rated input current\/capacity<\/th>\n<td>30.4A\/8.96kVA<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>No load voltage (MIG\/MMA\/TIG)<\/th>\n<td>68V<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>No load voltage (CUT)<\/th>\n<td>310V<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Rated working voltage (MIG)<\/th>\n<td>22V<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Rated working voltage (MMA)<\/th>\n<td>26.4V<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Rated working voltage (TIG)<\/th>\n<td>16.4V<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Rated working voltage (CUT)<\/th>\n<td>96V<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Duty cycle<\/th>\n<td>30%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Insulation class<\/th>\n<td>H<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Cooling type<\/th>\n<td>Fan cooled<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Case protection class<\/th>\n<td>IP21S<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Contact tip sizes<\/th>\n<td>0.6\u20131.0 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Electrode sizes (ARC)<\/th>\n<td>1.6\u20134.0 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Electrode sizes (TIG)<\/th>\n<td>1.6\u20132.4 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Cutting thickness<\/th>\n<td>6\u201312 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Barcode<\/th>\n<td>6009710593417<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Common questions<\/h3>\n<details>\n<summary>Which processes does it cover?<\/summary>\n<p>Stick (MMA), MIG, TIG, lift and pulse welding, plus a cutting function.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What power supply does it need?<\/summary>\n<p>A single-phase 230 V, 50 Hz supply.
