Processes Stick (SMAW) TIG (GTAW) Lift-Arc Input Power Requires 3- or 1-Phase Power Amperage Range 5 – 280 A Max. Open-Circuit Voltage 77 V Weight 41 lb (18.6 kg) Industrial Applications Power Plant Construction Petrochemical Construction Maintenance and Repair Shipbuilding CST™ 280 Stick/TIG Welding Power Source Issued Feb. 2011 • Index No. DC/29.55 The Power of Blue®. Portable in the shop or at the job site—at 41 lb the CST 280 is easily moved from location to location. Superior Stick arc performance even on the difficult-to-run electrodes like E6010. Adaptive Hot Start™ for Stick arc starts automatically increases the output amperage at the start of a weld should the start require it. Prevents the electrode from sticking and creating an inclusion. Remote amperage control provided through 14-pin receptacle on front of the machine. This permits use of standard remote amperage control devices. Tweco® or Dinse-style connectors are available on the CST 280. 6-ft power cable included. Easy to install with a new switch on the outside of the package, the machine can be changed between low and high input voltage ranges. Also, since the switch is on the back, input voltages can be changed without removal from inverter racks. Optional 4- or 8-pack racks are available for multiple operator applications. These are commonly used in construction and shipyard applications. All CST controls including the power switch are located on front of the machine for easy access. Power source is warranted for 3 years, parts and labor. Original main power rectified parts are warranted for 5 years.
