0705002022 - ESAB Rogue ES 201iP Pro Dual Voltage Stick/TIG Welder

Professional Grade Power and Precision

The ESAB Rogue ES 201iP Pro Stick Welder represents a significant leap forward in portable welding technology, bridging the gap between entry-level machines and heavy-industrial power sources. Designed for the professional welder who demands reliability and advanced control, this machine utilizes high-performance power electronics and digital control mechanisms to deliver a precise and consistent arc. The unit is built around a robust mechanical design, rated IP23S, which ensures it can withstand the rigors of both workshop environments and outdoor field applications.

One of the defining features of the Rogue ES 201iP Pro is its Pulse SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding) functionality. This advanced feature provides welders with unprecedented control over heat input, which is critical when welding thin gauge materials or bridging gaps. The pulsing action helps to freeze the weld puddle more rapidly, significantly reducing the risk of burn-through and minimizing distortion. Furthermore, Pulse SMAW facilitates out-of-position welding, such as vertical-up, by making the puddle easier to manipulate, thereby reducing undercut and spatter. This results in cleaner, higher-quality welds that require less post-weld cleanup.

Electrical efficiency and stability are paramount in the design of the Rogue ES 201iP Pro. It incorporates Power Factor Correction (PFC) technology, which allows the machine to operate efficiently on long extension cables—up to 300 feet (approx. 91 meters) using 12 AWG cable—without suffering from the voltage drops that typically plague standard inverters. This makes it an excellent choice for construction sites where the power source may be far from the work area. Additionally, the machine is generator compliant, recommended for use with 7kW generators, ensuring versatility in remote locations.

The user interface is streamlined yet powerful, featuring a digital microprocessor that offers precise control over all arc parameters. Users can easily adjust Hot Start and Arc Force settings to suit different electrode types, including Cellulosic (6010), Rutile, and Basic electrodes. The machine supports electrodes up to 4.0 mm (5/32 inch) and offers a welding output range of up to 200 Amps. For added versatility, the unit also supports Live TIG (DC) welding, allowing for high-quality welds on mild and stainless steel with the addition of an optional TIG torch and gas regulator.
