233170 - Miller Maxstar 150 Rear Identification Decal

Genuine Miller OEM Rear Nameplate for Maxstar 150 Series

The Miller 233170 is the authentic OEM rear nameplate label for Maxstar 150 STL (Stick/TIG Lift) and Maxstar 150 STH (Stick/TIG High Frequency) welding power sources. This component is critical for identifying the machine's specifications, particularly concerning the Multi-Voltage Plug (MVP) configuration. As a direct replacement part from Miller Electric, it ensures exact dimensional fitment and matches the original aesthetic of the machine, preserving the value and functionality of your welding equipment.

Welding machines are subject to harsh operational conditions. The rear panel, often housing the power switch and gas connections, is frequently handled or exposed to wear. When the original data plate becomes damaged or illegible, it creates a compliance issue and a potential safety hazard. The 233170 label provides the necessary technical data at a glance, including input voltage ratings, amperage draw, and duty cycle information relevant to the MVP system. This is particularly important in multi-user shops where different operators need to verify the machine's capabilities before connecting it to power.

Constructed from durable, industrial-grade materials, this label is engineered to resist the common hazards of a welding environment, including exposure to shielding gases, mild solvents, and elevated temperatures generated by the inverter power source. The adhesive backing is aggressive and designed to bond permanently to the machine's chassis, preventing lifting or curling over time. This ensures that the safety warnings and technical specs remain attached to the unit for its service life.

Application Notes: This label is specific to the "Rear" location of the Maxstar 150 STL and STH models. It is not intended for the front control panel or side covers. When replacing an old label, it is recommended to use a mild solvent to remove all traces of the previous adhesive. Once the surface is prepped and dried, peel the backing from the new 233170 label and apply it carefully to avoid air bubbles. This simple maintenance task is crucial for keeping your equipment inventory up to spec and ensuring that all safety and operational data is readily available to the welder.
