Wire Feeder PATON™ Feeder–5–2 – basic data

The PATON Feeder-5-2 features an integrated power source for the motor, protective gas valve, and control systems. It is equipped with a robust, high-quality two-roller wire feed mechanism with a hermetically sealed motor. The universal EURO-type KZ-2 connector ensures compatibility with welding torches from other manufacturers, providing the user with great flexibility in selecting accessories.

The PATON Feeder-5-2 allows for welding various metals, such as carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and copper alloys (e.g., CuSi, CuAl). Additionally, it supports working with flux-cored wire, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of welding applications. The feeder consumes very little power, typically no more than 100 W, provided the generator’s output voltage is within the permissible range of 180–260 V.

During the feeder operation its internal control system reads signals coming from the KZ-2 socket transmitted by the button in the holder. At the right moment it switches on the protective gas supply valve, after a predetermined delay it transmits the signal to switch on the power source, then it switches on and stabilizes the speed of the wire feeder motor rotation. When the process is complete, all components are turned off in reverse order with the required delays. By default, all parameters are set to optimum.

The device is optimized for operation with PATON™ production sources. Its adaptation is very simple and takes little time, as the design of the device already provides a tailored place for socket connection and source installation. A protection module against under- and over-voltage is built into this PATON™ production model.
