The Miller Big Blue 500 Pro is the definitive choice for professional welders in construction, infrastructure, and mining who demand reliability and power. At its heart beats a robust 48.9 HP Kubota V2403 turbo-charged diesel engine, EPA Tier 4 Final compliant, ensuring clean operation without the hassle of exhaust after-treatment maintenance. This machine is designed to withstand the harshest environments, featuring a heavy-duty powder coat finish with zinc-rich primer to resist rust and corrosion.
Reliability is engineered into every component. The control board is housed in "The Vault," a sealed aluminum case that protects sensitive electronics from dust, moisture, and heat. This solid-state technology ensures your machine keeps running when you need it most. The unit also features an electronic engine display that simultaneously monitors fuel levels, engine hours, coolant temperature, and oil pressure, making maintenance tracking simple and effective.
For the operator, the Big Blue 500 Pro offers exceptional versatility. It delivers a massive 500 amps of welding output at 100% duty cycle, capable of handling Stick, MIG, Flux-Cored, and DC TIG processes with ease. It is also rated for Carbon Arc Gouging with up to 3/8-inch carbons. Beyond welding, it serves as a powerhouse generator, providing 20,000 watts of continuous 3-phase power or 12,000 watts of single-phase power, allowing you to run lights, grinders, and even additional inverter welders on the job site.
Safety and efficiency are paramount. The Low OCV Stick (VRD) feature reduces open-circuit voltage to 15 volts when not welding, enhancing operator safety without compromising arc starts. Included features like the 120V block heater and automatic glow plugs ensure reliable starting even in cold weather conditions. With the Wireless Interface Control remote included in this package, you gain full control of the machine from the weld joint, reducing downtime and improving safety by eliminating trips back to the power source.
