®
The Power of Blue.
SSW models are designed for stationary
use and come with an all-steel pedestal
which houses timers and controls.
All spot welders operate on single-phase input
power, and require an air supply of 60 PSI
(414 kPa) minimum.
SSW models come complete with:
Stationary welding head
Remote foot switch
Pedestal inclusive of controls
and timer
Adjustable tong pressure nuts to adjust tong
pressure for different thicknesses and applications.
Air filter/regulator assembly
Order tongs/tips separately to
match your applications
Power switch/power “on” light/circuit breaker
protects control circuitry. Easy reset.
Air filter/regulator
assembly included.
Set-up/weld switch permits checking of
tong pressure and alignment without
making a weld.
Cam-operated locking device simplifies
installation and adjustment of bottom tong.
Ten-step current control adjusts output current
with no change in duty cycle.
Built-in squeeze/weld timer makes it quick
and easy to set or adjust squeeze and/or
weld time in hundredths of a second.
LED display makes it easy to read and
see timer settings.
