OVERVIEW

Restore Freedom to Your Welding Operations

The Miller 248500 Wireless Hand Control is the definitive replacement transmitter for the Miller wireless remote system, specifically designed to replace the older part number 300723. In the demanding world of industrial welding, equipment downtime or damaged accessories can halt production. This unit ensures your operations get back up to speed quickly, restoring the wireless capabilities that modern fabricators rely on for efficiency and safety.

Wireless technology in welding is more than a luxury; it is a safety feature. By eliminating the control cord, this hand control removes one of the most common trip hazards on the shop floor. It allows the welder to move freely around large assemblies, such as pressure vessels, structural beams, or aircraft fuselages, without dragging a heavy control cable or worrying about it getting snagged or cut. The 248500 unit maintains the robust build quality Miller is known for, designed to survive drops, dust, and the electromagnetic noise typical of a welding environment.

This transmitter operates on a secure 2.4 GHz frequency, ensuring that communication with the receiver (sold separately) is instant and free from interference, even in shops with multiple wireless devices. With a range of up to 300 feet (91.4 meters), it provides exceptional reach, allowing the power source to remain stationed safely away from the immediate work area. This is particularly beneficial in field applications or large construction sites where moving the welder is impractical.

The unit comes with clear, durable labels, ensuring that operators can easily see and adjust their settings even under a welding helmet or in low-light conditions. Whether you are TIG welding critical pipe joints or Stick welding structural steel, having precise amperage control at your fingertips—without the tether—significantly improves weld quality and reduces operator fatigue.
