Helvi Galileo 215 TIG Inverter Welder

Amperage range: 3–200 A (max output 215 A). Supports both AC and DC, pulse welding at 2–4 Hz, adjustable arc force, HF and Lift TIG start, and a spot timer. The unit is designed for portability with an ergonomic handle and built-in air cooling.

Pulse welding modulates current between a peak and background level, which helps control heat input. At 2–4 Hz, it’s useful for thin metals to reduce burn-through and improve weld quality on delicate joints.

It’s designed for a variety of metals, including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, with AC/DC operation to accommodate different material types and thicknesses.

Yes. It features a lightweight, ergonomic design and built-in air cooling, making it suitable for both workshop use and on-site projects where mobility matters.

Choose between HF TIG start (high-frequency arc initiation) or Lift TIG start (non-contact arc initiation). Set your amperage, prepare the workpiece, bring the TIG torch close to the joint, and initiate the arc with the selected start method for a clean, controlled strike.

Wear appropriate PPE (welding helmet with correct shade, gloves, flame-resistant clothing), ensure proper ventilation, keep around-area free of flammable materials, ground the workpiece, and follow standard electrical and fire-safety guidelines for TIG welding.

Regularly inspect and clean the cooling vents to prevent dust buildup, check cables and connectors for wear, store in a dry area, and follow manufacturer recommendations for periodic inspection to ensure safe, reliable operation.

Compared with the Helvi Galileo 200 TIG Inverter Welder and the Galileo 230 TIG Inverter Welder (for example, at https://fepy.com/product/helvi-galileo-200-tig-inverter-welder and https://fepy.com/product/helvi-galileo-230-tig-inverter-welder), the Galileo 215 offers a higher 215 A max output, robust inverter design, and pulse capability, making it well-suited for a mix of thin and thicker gauge projects with precise control.

Ideal for automotive sheet metal, aluminum fabrications, stainless steel fittings, and other precision TIG jobs where control over heat input and starter options (HF/Lift) improves weld quality and consistency.

Assess your typical metal thickness, material variety (steel, stainless, aluminum), need for precise heat control (pulse capability), portability, and the availability of support resources. Compare with other Galileo variants to balance features against price and after-sales service.
