The Nichrome wire selected to perform

Nichrome is metal that is usually formed into either wire or a thin strip. It is a resistive heater, meaning
that when power is passed through it, the wire heats up. By hooking a circuit with nichrome wire up to a
battery, heat can be quickly generated to affect bimetallic strips, melt fishing line, burn string, light
candles/matches, and other possible applications.

Ein = Amount of energy to heat the wire

Eout = Amount of energy dissipate and cool the wire

Estored = Amount of energy stored in the wire

The temperature of the will be steady state

Formula:
RN = (Wire Length (inch) / 12) x RPF Vp = I x RN Power = I x Vp Where, RPF =
Resistance per Feet (Ohms) [From Table] I = Current Required (Amps) [From Table] V p = Volts

Example:
A 30 inch nichrome C wire length with gauge as 12 and temperature as 450 degree fahrenheit.
Solution:
For wire gauge of 12, RPM value is 0.09907 (from Table).
RN = (Wire Length (inch) / 12) x RPF
= (30 / 12) x 0.09907
= 0.2477 Ohms
Vp = I x RN
= 12.725 (from Table) x 0.2477
= 3.2735 V
Power = I x Vp
= 12.725 x 3.2735
= 41.6554 Amps
Nichrome wire can be used as an alternative for platinum wire in flame testing. In NiCrC, additionally
Iron (Fe) is added along with Nickel and Chromium.
MMA/TIG Welding Machine -- TD-400H

Thyristor based power sources are the basic type arc welding power source used
for MMA/TIG applications. Current control is achieved through saturable core
reactor. Very reliable power source but not recommended for radiographic
welding application as there is no dependable feedback for maintaining the
output current constant due to fluctuation of input supply or change in load.
Power factor is poor for these power sources.

Special Features:

 Hexa phase design, which produces excellent welding quality.

 Most rugged design, suits dusty, dirty project site conditions.

 Almost No maintenance machine.

Advantages:

 Heavy duty rugged machine.

 Simple to use.

 Very easy to maintain.

Technical Specifications of TD-400H:

 Input Supply : 380-440 V, 3 Phase

 Frequency : 50 Hertz

 Class of Insulation : 'H'

  Primary Current @ Max. Rated (Single Operator) : 37 Amperes

 Open Circuit Voltage : 75 – 85 Volt

 Output Current @ 60% Duty Cycle : 400 Amperes

 Output Current @ 100% Duty Cycle : 310 Amperes

 Current Range : 10-400 Amperes

 Type of Cooling : Forced Air Cooled

 Dimension (L X W X H) : 780 X 620 X 810 mm

 Weight : 220 Kgs

Standard Scope of Supply:

 Thyristorised based Welding Rectifier Model: TD400H – OCV 75-85 V, Current at

60% duty cycle 400 amps.3 Phase is divided into 6 phase input supply to the

primary of transformer and this produces better quality of output and stability of

current reduces the size of input KVA of the machine and enhances the power

factor and efficiency of the machine.

Optional Accessories –

 Input cable.

 TIG Accessories (HF Unit, Water Cooling Unit, Gas Cooled TIG Welding Torch,

Water Cooled TIG Welding Torch).

 Safety Wear – Shoes, Goggles.

 Remote Control Unit.
