Same fields. Each cell is that model's published text. A blank stays "Not published by manufacturer." The outlet chip does not hide either column.
| Spec | Multimatic 220 AC/DC | Syncrowave 212 |
|---|---|---|
| Process | MIG (GMAW), flux-cored (FCAW), DC stick (SMAW), AC/DC TIG (GTAW), and pulsed TIG (GTAW-P). | AC/DC TIG (GTAW), pulsed DC TIG (GTAW-P), DC stick (SMAW), and MIG (GMAW) with a Spoolmate 150. |
| Output amp range | MIG: 30–230 A. DC stick: 30–200 A. AC/DC TIG: 20–210 A. The specifications table splits those ranges by voltage: MIG 30–125 A on 120 V and 30–230 A on 240 V; stick 30–90 A on 120 V and 30–200 A on 240 V; TIG 20–140 A on 120 V and 20–210 A on 240 V. | 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 | MIG: 120 V, 105 A at 19.2 V, 60% duty cycle; 240 V, 200 A at 24 V, 20% duty cycle and 170 A at 21.5 V, 40% duty cycle. Stick: 120 V, 90 A at 23.6 V, 40%; 240 V, 200 A at 28.4 V, 15%. TIG: 120 V, 130 A at 15.2 V, 40%; 240 V, 210 A at 18.4 V, 20%. | 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 | 120/240 V, single-phase, 50/60 Hz. Amps input at rated output: MIG 23.3 A at 120 V and 27.2 A at the 200 A / 20% 240 V rating; stick 24.5 A at 120 V and 31.3 A at 240 V; TIG 24.0 A at 120 V and 22.4 A at 240 V. | 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 | Included Quick Select drive roll for .024 in. (0.6 mm) or .030/.035 in. (0.8/0.9 mm) solid wire, and .030/.035 in. (0.8/0.9 mm) flux-cored wire. Wire feed speed in the table is 60–600 ipm. | Not published by manufacturer |
| Weight | 56 lb. (25.4 kg). | 54 lb. (24.5 kg), air-cooled machine only. |
| Material thickness | Not published by manufacturer | 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. |
