| Spec | Syncrowave 212 | Multi-Handler 200 |
|---|---|---|
| Process | AC/DC TIG (GTAW), pulsed DC TIG (GTAW-P), DC stick (SMAW), and MIG (GMAW) with a Spoolmate 150. | MIG, flux-cored, DC TIG, and stick. |
| Output amp range | 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. | MIG/flux-cored: 30–200 A. DC TIG: 20–200 A. Stick: 30–200 A. The table narrows 120 V MIG to 30–120 A, 120 V TIG to 20–140 A, and 120 V stick to 30–100 A. |
| Rated 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. | At 30% duty cycle: MIG 110 A at 19.5 V on 120 V and 165 A at 22.2 V on 240 V; DC TIG 105 A at 14.2 V on 120 V and 165 A at 16.6 V on 240 V; stick 90 A at 23.6 V on 120 V and 140 A at 25.6 V on 240 V. |
| Input voltage and plug | 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. | 120 V or 240 V, 50/60 Hz. MVP plugs: 5-15P (120 V, 15 A) and 6-50P (240 V, 50 A). Amps input at rated output, MIG: 23.0 A at 120 V and 19.0 A at 240 V. DC TIG: 16.7 A and 14.7 A. Stick: 22.0 A and 17.9 A. |
| Wire or rod size | Not published by manufacturer | 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 on the product page is 60–650 ipm. |
| Weight | 54 lb. (24.5 kg), air-cooled machine only. | 38.4 lb on the product page. The spec sheet says the machine weighs under 39 pounds. |
| Material thickness | 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. | Mild steel: MIG/flux-cored 24 ga.–3/8 in., DC TIG 22 ga.–3/16 in., stick 16 ga.–3/8 in. |
