Designed for welding pipe and plate in the construction industry -- this compact, 35 pound, goes-anywhere welder delivers 280 amps of superior Stick and TIG performance with Auto-Line™ Technology to utilize nearly any source of primary power on the jobsite.

Features

  • Automatically makes starting stick electrodes easy without creating an inclusion.
  • New Miller-exclusive universal output connector system can be used with either Tweco- or Dinse-style connectors. Welders can convert the machine from one connector style to another — without having to take the machine apart or deal with adapters.
  • VRD technology reduces output voltage when the operator isn’t welding, lowering the potential hazard from inadvertent contact with the electrode during non-welding pauses.
  • Digital meter and push-button controls for more precise setting when presetting or monitoring welding amperage.
  • Lift-Arc™ provides arc starting that minimizes contamination of the electrode and without the use of high-frequency.
  • Superior stick arc performance with settings specifically designed for XX10 and XX18 electrodes and a stiff and soft setting for each. Whether welding pipe or in the flat there is a setting for each application.
  • Allows hookup to either single-phase or three-phase primary input voltage, 208-600 volts dependent on the machine, with no manual linking, providing convenience in any job setting. An ideal solution for dirty or unreliable input power.
  • Weighing only 34.6 pounds, the CST 282 is easily moved around a jobsite for increased operator comfort and safety. It is 7 pounds (20%) lighter than the previous CST model.
  • Rack mountable for protection, storage, and transportation of multiple power sources while using a single primary power cable.
