The Miller Diversion 180 AC/DC TIG Welder is a top - notch tool for TIG welding aluminum. This comprehensive package includes a TIG torch, foot control, flow - gauge, gas hose, ground cable, and clamp. Weighing just 50 lbs, it's incredibly portable and can operate on both 115 and 230 - volt power.
The operator interface is a breeze to understand. It's as simple as '1, 2, 3' to set up and start welding: power up the machine, select the material type, and set the material thickness range. There's also a digital display so you always know your settings.
It offers dependable arc starts with HF non - contact arc starting, preventing tungsten and material contamination every time. By using the latest inverter technology, it provides a more efficient and consistent welding arc compared to older transformer - based TIG machines.
The Fan - On - Demand™ cooling system only runs when necessary, reducing fan noise, power consumption, and the amount of contaminants drawn into the machine. Its light weight makes it highly portable, whether you're in the shop, garage, or at the race track.
The Auto - Postflow feature optimizes post - flow time based on welding amperage, eliminating the waste of expensive shielding gas. With Miller's Multi Voltage Plug (MVP™), you can easily connect to 120 or 240 - volt power receptacles without tools.
The package comes with a Diversion Series foot control and the Weldcraft A - 150 TIG torch. This 150 - amp, air - cooled torch has a compact and durable design, perfect for both professional and hobbyist welders. The Diamond Grip head design offers ergonomic contact points for a more comfortable grip.
Included with the product are a power source with 8 - ft primary cord and MVP™ plugs, an RFCS - RJ45 remote foot control, a 12 - 1/2 ft Weldcraft® WP - 17 TIG torch with accessories, a 12 - ft work lead with clamp, and a Smith® Argon regulator/flow gauge with hose.
Using the Miller 180 AC/DC TIG Welder is easy. First, power up the machine. Then, select the type of material you're going to weld, like aluminum. After that, set the thickness range of the material. You can check the digital display to make sure your settings are correct.
When starting to weld, thanks to the HF non - contact arc starting, you don't have to worry about contaminating the tungsten or the material. Just start welding with confidence.
Remember, the Fan - On - Demand™ cooling system will turn on when it's needed. So don't be alarmed if you don't hear the fan running all the time. This also helps save power and keeps the machine clean.
To save on shielding gas, the Auto - Postflow feature will adjust the post - flow time according to the welding amperage. You don't need to make any manual adjustments.
When it comes to power, use Miller's Multi Voltage Plug (MVP™) to connect to either 120 or 240 - volt power receptacles. Just pick the right plug that fits the socket and connect it to the power cord.
For maintenance, keep the machine clean and free from dust. Check the cables and hoses regularly for any signs of damage. If you notice any issues, stop using the machine and get it checked by a professional. Also, store the machine in a dry place when not in use to prevent rust and other damage.
