The Vantage 322 delivers exceptional compact versatility with up to 400 amps (IEC rated at 300 amps) of welding current to tackle numerous welding and carbon arc gouging applications. Operators can select from five basic process modes including CC-Stick, Downhill Pipe, DC Touch Start TIG, CV-Wire, or Arc Gouging mode, which maximizes output for up to 5/16 in. (8.0 mm) carbon rods. This multi-functional machine also provides impressive generator output with up to 11 kW of continuous three-phase power to run industrial tools such as plasma cutters, pumps, or inverter welders, making it an all-in-one solution for diverse jobsite requirements.
Built with patented Chopper Technology, the Vantage 322 delivers premium arc performance with minimized spatter for stick or pipe welding as well as enhanced gouging performance that prevents the engine from stalling, resulting in smooth material removal. The unit is engineered for reliable operations with field-proven ruggedness and durability to meet the most challenging job site needs and harshest environments. Powered by a 22 hp, naturally aspirated Kubota diesel engine, the Vantage 322 runs smooth and quiet while meeting EPA Tier 4 Final compliance standards. The innovative service access features include a lockable and removable sliding access door to service the engine and internal components, a battery drawer on front of machine for quick access, and a top-mounted radiator cover that provides convenient maintenance access. With a large 20 US gal. (75.7 L) fuel tank compared to smaller 11 US gal. (41.6 L) tanks in competitive machines, operators can run longer between fill-ups, maximizing productivity and reducing downtime on demanding job sites.
