Product catalog summary
Overview: This document outlines the specifications and features of the Bobcat 225 and 250 welder/generators, emphasizing their industrial applications, performance data, and improvements over previous models.
Supported Processes: The Bobcat models support Stick (SMAW), Flux-Cored (FCAW), MIG (GMAW), DC TIG (GTAW), Non-Critical AC TIG (GTAW), and Air Carbon Arc (CAC-A) cutting and gouging.
Industrial Applications: These welder/generators are ideal for maintenance, repair, farm/ranch applications, fabrication, structural steel work, and can function as stand-alone generators.
Output Range: The output range varies: AC Stick/TIG (70–150 A for 225, 40–250 A for 250), DC Stick/TIG (50–225 A for 225, 40–250 A for 250), and FCAW/MIG (19–28 V for 225, 17–28 V for 250).
Generator Power Output: The Bobcat 225/250 models provide a peak power of 11,000 W and continuous power of 9,500 W, while the 250 EFI model offers a peak of 12,000 W and continuous power of 10,500 W.
Design and Maintenance: Designed for reliability, these models feature copper windings, iron generator components, and superior cooling technology. They are quieter, smaller, lighter, and more fuel-efficient, with easy maintenance facilitated by intuitive design and front panel displays.
EFI Advantages: EFI models offer up to 27% better fuel efficiency, fast starts in all climates, reliable operation, and reduced emissions compared to carbureted models.
Performance Data: Detailed performance data includes sound levels, fuel consumption, and power usage, highlighting the Bobcat's capability to handle high power demands smoothly.
Additional Features: The Bobcat 250 model includes features like reversed generator airflow for cooler operation, maintenance displays, and a weld process selector switch for ease of use.
Accessories and Options: Available accessories include GFCI receptacles, LP gas systems, electric fuel pumps, spark arrestors, and running gear with Never Flat™ tires for enhanced mobility and protection.

Reversed Generator Airflow Exclusive engine and generator packaging design operates cooler and more efficiently. The engine is rotated towards the front to create more efficient airflow. More efficient airflow and exclusive engine location are significant contributors to reduced sound level and size reduction. Hot air recirculation is eliminated when machine is mounted in tight spots, and internal parts are kept cool for optimal performance.
