Lincoln Electric Lincoln Aspect 230 Ac/Dc TIG Welder Water Cooled One-Pak (K4342-1)

Where the air-cooled pak suits shorter passes, this Aspect 230 Water-Cooled One-Pak (K4342-1) pairs the same 230A power source with a water-cooled torch, a dedicated cooler, and a cart, built for shops running sustained or higher-amperage TIG work where an air-cooled torch would eventually run hot. What's in the pak This bundle adds a Cool Arc 22 cooler (K3475-1), a rolling cart (K4441-1), a foot pedal (K870), a 25-foot water-cooled torch from the 20 Series with its consumables, a flow-gauge regulator and hose kit, a 15 ft ground clamp set, and a twist-mate connector, stacked on top of the Aspect 230 power source. What the welder does Output peaks at 230A at a rated 35% duty cycle, and the unit welds up to 1/4 inch material. Aluminum passes draw on a choice of four wave shapes, running from Triangular through Square and Sine to Soft Square, each one trading off puddle control against arc sound, travel speed, or heat input differently. Input power is self-sensing between 120 and 460 volts, either 50 or 60 Hz, across single- or three-phase service, and up to nine saved procedures can be recalled from memory. Common questions Why pick water-cooled over air-cooled? The dedicated cooler and torch here are built to handle longer, higher-amperage TIG runs that would overheat an air-cooled setup. Is a cart included? Yes, the K4441-1 cart ships as part of this pak. This package carries a Proposition 65 notice, standard on welding equipment sold in California.
