OVERVIEW

Restore Reliable Power to Your Miller Bobcat

The Miller 289119 Stator Power/Exciter is a critical replacement component designed specifically for Miller Bobcat engine-driven welders. In the demanding world of industrial fabrication and field repair, your engine drive is the heart of your operation. When power generation fails, productivity stops. This genuine Miller OEM part replaces a damaged or shorted stator/exciter assembly, effectively restoring the machine's ability to convert mechanical engine energy into the electrical current required for welding and auxiliary power.

The stator and exciter are fundamental to the generator's function. The exciter creates the magnetic field necessary for the main stator windings to generate voltage. Over time, due to heat, vibration, or electrical faults, these windings can fail, leading to symptoms such as low output, no output, or inability to hold an arc. Installing the Miller 289119 ensures that you are using a component manufactured to the exact specifications of your machine, guaranteeing correct resistance values, physical fitment, and long-term durability.

Why Choose Genuine Miller Parts?

Using aftermarket or rewound parts in high-performance welding generators can lead to mismatched output characteristics or premature failure. The Miller 289119 is engineered with high-quality copper windings and insulation materials capable of withstanding the thermal cycles and harsh environments typical of job sites. Whether you are running a construction site or a mobile repair truck, relying on OEM components minimizes downtime and protects the rest of your machine's electrical system.

Application and Compatibility

This stator/exciter assembly is designed for specific models within the Miller Bobcat family. Because electrical components can vary based on the machine's serial number and generation, it is imperative to verify compatibility with your specific unit before installation. Replacing a stator is a significant repair that often involves disassembling the generator end of the welder; ensuring you have the correct part on hand is the first step toward a successful repair.

FAQ

The stator generates the main electrical power for welding and auxiliary outlets, while the exciter creates the magnetic field required for the stator to generate that power.

Common symptoms include the engine running fine but producing no welding output and no power at the 120/240V outlets. A technician can verify this by testing the resistance of the windings.

No, Miller manufactures different versions of the Bobcat. You must check your machine's serial number against the parts manual to verify that part number 289119 is correct for your specific unit.

Yes, this is a genuine Miller Electric replacement part, ensuring the same quality and fit as the original component.

Replacing a stator requires significant disassembly of the generator end of the welder. It is recommended for experienced technicians or those with professional mechanical and electrical repair skills.

Typically, the stator/exciter is the winding assembly itself. Brushes and slip rings are usually separate components, though you should inspect them during the replacement process.

Stators can fail due to overheating from overloading, moisture intrusion causing corrosion, vibration damaging the insulation, or general wear and tear over many years of service.

If the low output is caused by shorted windings in the stator or a failing exciter, yes. However, low output can also be caused by engine RPM issues, bad diodes, or other control board problems, so proper diagnosis is essential.
