Rugged, multi-process welder PDF Print E-mail
Written by REM Staff   
Designed for maintenance and repair, as well as construction applications, Lincoln's new Ranger 305 LPG is a powerful engine-driven welder that allows users to seamlessly switch between multiple processes.

While liquid propane gas (LPG) is less common, it is required when operating in areas where gasoline and diesel engines are not permitted. This is typically the result of company policy limiting the type of engine that can be powered at a work environment.

The Ranger 305 LPG provides DC multi-process welding for general purpose stick, downhill pipe (stick), Touch Start TIG, cored-wire, MIG (CO2 and mixed gases) and arc gouging. It also accommodates CV wire welding up to 5/64 in (2mm) diameter electrodes. Plenty of welding and AC generator power is delivered by the 25 HP Kohler® LPG engine.

With digital weld meters, operators are able to easily preset procedures, as well as monitor actual welding output. The Ranger 305 LPG uses Lincoln Electric Chopper Technology® to delivers superior arc performance, including easy starts, a smooth arc, low spatter and excellent bead appearance.

The machine provides 10,000 watts peak single-phase AC generator power, and 9,000 watts for continuous high capacity needs, including serving as a back-up generator for lights, a grinder or other power tools. If an inverter power source is needed to add a second arc, the skewed rotor design allows the Ranger 305 LPG to generate suitable AC power.
