Auto-Lineprovides state-of-the-art flexibility to the end user. The Auto- Line circuitry automatically connects to 115–230 VAC, single-phase power without removing the covers to relink the power source. No longer is there a concern if you have the correct machine for the shop or job site.

Miller’s exclusive multi-voltage plug (MVP) allows connection to 115 or 230 V receptacles without tools —

choose the plug that fits the receptacle and connect it to the power cord.

Portable in the shop or at the job site — at 13.7 lb the shoulder strap allows the end user to easily move from location to location.

Built-in pulsing capabilities allow the operator to select from four fixed pulse frequencies to satisfy the application.

HF start for non-contact arc starting that eliminates tungsten or material contamination.

Selectable trigger configuration allows the operator to choose standard or 2T trigger method to meet the application.

Lift-Arcstart provides TIG arc starting without the use of high frequency.

Built-in gas solenoid eliminates the need for bulky torch with a gas valve.

Full function remote control for precise amperage control for critical welds on thin materials (6-pin fingertip or foot control available.)

Power source is warranted for 3 years, parts and labor.

Original main power rectified parts are warranted for 5 years.

Thermal overload protection with indicator light helps prevent machine damage if the duty cycle is exceeded or airflow is blocked.

Single amperage range allows operator to accurately set amperage on both 115 or 230 V primary power.

Inverter-based, DC power source has a simple-to-use operator interface providing only the necessary controls in a compact machine.

Adaptive Hot Startfor Stick arc starts automatically increases the output amperage at the start of a weld should the start require it.

Prevents the electrode from sticking and creating an inclusion.

Low OCV Stick is a simple design that reduces the open-circuit voltage to 12–16 volts when the welding power source is not in use. This circuit design is now built into the Maxstar 150 STH eliminating the need for add-on voltage reducers.

Best in class Stick arc character- istics for those demanding jobs.

Power Factor Corrected (PFC) for optimum performance especially on 115 V — reduces nuisance breaker tripping.

Fan-On-Demandpower source cooling system operates only when needed, reducing noise, energy use and the amount of contaminants pulled through the machine.
