OVERVIEW

Compact DC TIG and Stick Welding Solution

The Miller Maxstar 161 STL TIG/Stick Welder Package (907710001) is a best-in-class inverter power source that redefines portability and performance for the industrial welder. Designed to operate on 120-240 V input power, this machine features a digital meter for precise amperage control and a robust design that withstands the rigors of field work. With an amperage range of 5 to 160 A, it provides the versatility required for a wide array of applications, from maintenance and repair to shipboard installation.

Advanced Arc Control
The Maxstar 161 STL is equipped with superior arc control technologies. For Stick welding (SMAW), the machine offers a specialized 6010 mode, ensuring stable arc performance even with cellulosic electrodes. The Low OCV Stick design reduces open-circuit voltage to 12-16 volts when not welding, enhancing operator safety without the need for add-on voltage reducers. In TIG mode (GTAW), the built-in gas solenoid eliminates the need for bulky torches with manual gas valves, streamlining the setup and improving gas coverage control.

Intelligent Power Management
Miller's Auto-Line technology is a key advantage, allowing for seamless connection to 120 V or 240 V receptacles. The machine's internal circuitry automatically adjusts to the input voltage, ensuring consistent welding output even if the input power fluctuates. This is complemented by Power Factor Correction (PFC), which optimizes performance on 120 V circuits and significantly reduces nuisance breaker tripping, a common issue with older inverter technology.

Complete Contractor Package
This package is curated to get you welding immediately. It includes the rugged X-CASE for storage, a 12.5-foot Weldcraft A-150 (WP-17) TIG torch, a stick electrode holder, a work clamp, and a flow gauge regulator with a gas hose. The Fan-On-Demand cooling system operates only when necessary, reducing noise, energy consumption, and the intake of airborne contaminants. Backed by Miller's True Blue 3-Year Warranty, the Maxstar 161 STL is an investment in quality and durability for professional welders.

FAQ

No, the Maxstar 161 STL is a DC-only welder. Aluminum TIG welding typically requires an AC output. This machine is designed for steel and stainless steel.

No, the standard package (907710001) does not include a foot pedal or fingertip control. These remote controls must be purchased separately.

The machine features Auto-Line technology and can operate on 120 V or 240 V single-phase power. It includes adapter cords for both.

No, the Maxstar 161 STL uses Lift-Arc technology for TIG arc starting, which minimizes electronic interference.

At 240V input, the duty cycle is 20% at 160 Amps and 100% at 110 Amps for both TIG and Stick processes.

The package includes a Weldcraft A-150 (WP-17) which is an air-cooled TIG torch.

Yes, the Maxstar 161 STL has a specific setting designed to provide superior performance with difficult-to-run electrodes like E6010.

The Maxstar 161 STL is covered by Miller's True Blue 3-Year Warranty.
