Welds Stick/TIG
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.
Auto-Line™ Technology
Work in more places with Auto-Line technology which automatically calibrates the power source to operate properly when connected to any primary input voltage ranging from 208-575 volts, single- or three-phase, 50 or 60 Hz — with no manual linking required. Learn More
Portable
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.
Universal Connector System
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.
Simple & Accurate Interface
Digital meter and push-button controls for more precise setting when presetting or monitoring welding amperage.
Adaptive Hot Start™
Automatically makes starting stick electrodes easy without creating an inclusion.
Lift-Arc™
Lift-Arc™ provides arc starting that minimizes contamination of the electrode and without the use of high-frequency.
Voltage Reducing Device
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.
4 and 8 Pack Racks
Rack mountable for protection, storage, and transportation of multiple power sources while using a single primary power cable.
