Built with advanced IGBT inverter technology, it delivers a welding current range from 10 to 160 amps, ensuring consistent output, excellent arc ignition, and smooth metal fusion. The high open-circuit voltage guarantees immediate arc striking, while constant current control provides stable penetration and superior weld quality on mild steel, stainless steel, and cast iron up to 10 mm thick. Supporting coated electrodes up to 4.0 mm diameter, the unit integrates Hot Start, Arc Force, and Anti-Sticking functions for improved usability and reduced electrode sticking. Weighing just 2.9 kg and featuring a compact design with shoulder strap, the GYSMI 160A is ideal for both workshop and on-site use. Generator compatibility and protection against voltage fluctuations (±15%) ensure dependable operation in demanding environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWHY BUY FROM BWS?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"image-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"benefit-image\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Mobile Service Engineer support\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/1430\/9422\/files\/Mobile_engineers_100x100.png?v=1731083851\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"benefit-image\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Technical Support Engineers\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/1430\/9422\/files\/technical_support_100x100.png?v=1731083851\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"benefit-image\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Equipment Trained Engineers\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0040\/1430\/9422\/files\/Trained_Experts_for_support_100x100.png?v=1731083851\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.bws-benefits {\n    max-width: 800px;\n    margin: 0 auto;\n    padding: 10px;\n}\n\n.bws-benefits h3 {\n    text-align: left;\n    margin-bottom: 15px;\n}\n\n.image-container {\n    display: flex;\n    justify-content: left;\n    gap: 10px;\n    margin-bottom: 15px;\n}\n\n.benefit-image img {\n    width: 100px;\n    height: 100px;\n    object-fit: contain;\n    margin-bottom: 16px;\n}\n\n.benefits-container {\n    display: flex;\n    justify-content: center;\n    align-items: left;\n    gap: 20px;\n    padding: 15px;\n    background: #f5f5f5;\n    border-radius: 5px;\n}\n\n.benefit-item {\n    font-size: 14px;\n    color: #333;\n    display: flex;\n    align-items: left;\n    gap: 5px;\n}\n\n.checkmark {\n    color: #4CAF50;\n    font-weight: bold;\n}\n\n@media (max-width: 600px) {\n    .image-container {\n        flex-direction: column;\n        align-items: left;\n    }\n    \n    .benefits-container {\n        flex-direction: column;\n        gap: 10px;\n    }\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelding current range: 10 – 160 A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower supply: 230 V, single-phase, 50\/60 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum electrode diameter: Ø 4.0 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable material thickness: Up to 10 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuty cycle: 160 A @ 60%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 23 x 15 x 10 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 4.54 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtection rating: IP21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenerator compatible (±15% voltage variation)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdvanced IGBT inverter technology for stable arc control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh open-circuit voltage for immediate arc ignition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot Start function for improved start-up performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArc Force to maintain arc stability in demanding welds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-Sticking system to reduce electrode seizure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight with integrated carry strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOvercurrent protection for enhanced machine durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e1.
