1) Measured 5mm in the nozzle, in the centre of the nozzle opening.
2) Drawn-in cold air volume at the ambient pressure.
3) Depending on the welding filler material diameter and the welding groove geometry.
4) PE 63, PE 80, PE 100
5) Nitrogene recommended
6) LEISTER empiric parameters

Please note:
The indicated welding parameter may vary depending on the ambient temperature and the material configuration. Test welds need to be done and the parameter aligned accordingly! STANMECH takes no responsibility for poor quality welding!
