| Spec | Millermatic 252 | TIG230 |
|---|---|---|
| Process | MIG (GMAW) and flux-cored (FCAW). | AC/DC TIG and stick. The page lists nine AC waveforms, including square, sine, triangle, and hybrid. |
| Output amp range | 30–300 A. | TIG 2–230 A. Stick 10–200 A. |
| Rated duty cycle | 200 A at 24 VDC, 60% duty cycle. 250 A at 26.5 VDC, 40% duty cycle. | TIG: 35% at 230 A, 60% at 175 A, 100% at 136 A. Stick: 35% at 200 A, 60% at 152 A, 100% at 118 A. The duty lines are not split by voltage. |
| Input voltage and plug | 208/240 V, single-phase, 60 Hz, or 230/460/575 V, single-phase, 60 Hz. On the 208/240 V row, amps input at the 200 A, 60% rating are 57.0 A at 208 V and 50.8 A at 240 V. | 90–275 V, 50–60 Hz. That range covers a 120 V outlet and a 240 V outlet. Input amperes are not in the specifications block. |
