| Spec | Multimatic 215 PRO | Syncrowave 212 |
|---|---|---|
| Process | MIG (GMAW), pulsed MIG (GMAW-P), flux-cored (FCAW), DC TIG (GTAW), pulsed TIG (GTAW-P), and DC stick (SMAW). | AC/DC TIG (GTAW), pulsed DC TIG (GTAW-P), DC stick (SMAW), and MIG (GMAW) with a Spoolmate 150. |
| Output amp range | 20–230 A on the product page. | AC/DC TIG: 20–210 A. DC stick: 30–200 A. MIG: 30–175 A. The specifications table narrows 120 V DC TIG to 20–140 A and 240 V DC stick to 35–160 A. |
| Rated duty cycle | 120 V: 110 A at 19.5 VDC, 60% duty cycle. 240 V: 160 A at 22.0 VDC, 60% duty cycle, and 215 A at 24.8 VDC, 30% duty cycle. | Quick specs lead with 130 A at 15.2 V, 60% duty cycle. The table adds, at 60%: 120 V DC TIG 110 A at 14.4 V, and 240 V DC stick 120 A at 24.8 V. It also prints 210 A at 20% and 120 A at 100% on the AC/DC TIG duty column, without tying those two lines to one voltage. |
| Input voltage and plug | 120 or 240 V, single-phase, 50/60 Hz. MVP plugs for 120 V and 240 V are included. Input amperes are not in the quick specs. | 120–240 V, 1-phase, 50/60 Hz. Amps input at rated output in the table: 18.8 A for 120 V DC TIG and 11.8 A for 240 V DC TIG. The 240 V DC stick row prints 16.3 A. |
| Wire or rod size | The features page says the machine is used with .024–.035 in. (0.6–0.9 mm) solid wire and .030–.045 in. (0.8–1.2 mm) flux-cored wire. The included drive roll is grooved for .024 in. or .030/.035 in. solid and .030/.035 in. flux-cored. | Not published by manufacturer |
| Weight | 35 lb. | 54 lb. (24.5 kg), air-cooled machine only. |
| Material thickness | 120 V: 24 ga.–3/16 in. steel and 18 ga.–1/8 in. aluminum. 240 V: 24 ga.–3/8 in. steel and 18 ga.–3/8 in. aluminum. Stick and TIG thickness are not printed in that block. | AC/DC TIG: 120 V, 20 gauge–1/8 in.; 240 V, 20 gauge–1/4 in. DC stick: 120 V, 16 gauge–3/16 in.; 240 V, 16 gauge–3/8 in. MIG spool gun: 120 V, 1/8 in.; 240 V, 1/8–3/8 in. The table does not name the metal. |
