Thermal overload protection helps prevent machine damage if the duty cycle is exceeded or airflow is blocked.
• Low OCV stick is a simple design that reduces the open-circuit voltage to 12 – 16 volts when the welding power source is not in use. This circuit design is now built into the Maxstar 161 S, eliminating the need for add-on voltage reducers.
• Power factor corrected (PFC) for optimum performance especially on 120 volts — reduces nuisance breaker tripping.
• Stick-stuck detects if the electrode is stuck to the part and turns the welding output off to safely and easily remove the electrode. This feature is Menu selectable.
• Superior stick arc performance even on the diffcult-to-run electrodes like E6010.

The Miller Maxstar 161 STH TIG/Stick Welder (Standard Package) provides maximum portability and performance in the most compact TIG/Stick packages in the industry. Dependability and performance all in one machine. By utilizing an inverter-based power source in the Maxstar 161, superior arc starts and excellent weld puddle control are provided in both the TIG and Stick settings – all in a small, light-weight package.
