951599001 - Miller SuitCase 12RC Heavy-Duty Wire Feeder Package with Q300 Gun

Industrial-Grade Portable Wire Feeding Solution

The Miller SuitCase 12RC Wire Feeder (951599001) represents a pinnacle in portable wire feeding technology, engineered specifically to withstand the rigors of heavy manufacturing, shipbuilding, and construction environments. This package is meticulously configured with a Bernard BTB Q300 MIG gun, offering a complete solution for professionals requiring reliability and performance in remote welding applications. The unit is housed in a totally enclosed, impact-resistant, and flame-retardant case, ensuring that internal components and welding wire remain protected from moisture, dust, and other industrial contaminants. This durability is essential for maintaining consistent weld quality in harsh field conditions.

Technologically, the SuitCase 12RC is designed for standard remote voltage control, making it compatible with power sources that provide 24 VAC control. It excels in Flux Cored (FCAW) and MIG (GMAW) processes, supporting a welding output of up to 425 Amps. The wire drive system is a critical component, delivering ultra-smooth wire feeding performance. This specific model features a heavy-duty drive motor and accessible drive rolls, facilitating quick wire changes and tension adjustments. It accommodates 12-inch (33 lb) spools, maximizing arc time between changeovers. The inclusion of digital meters allows for precise monitoring of wire feed speed and voltage, ensuring adherence to strict welding procedure specifications (WPS).

A standout feature of this package is the integrated control suite. It comes standard with 3 seconds of preflow and 5 seconds of postflow, optimizing gas coverage at the start and end of the weld to prevent porosity and oxidation. Additionally, the burnback control and trigger hold functions enhance operator comfort and weld termination quality. The trigger hold feature is particularly beneficial for long welds, reducing operator fatigue. The package also includes a flowmeter and a lifting eye, further enhancing its utility in industrial settings. With a weight of 47 lbs and a balanced, ergonomic design, the SuitCase 12RC offers improved mobility, allowing welders to easily transport the feeder to the point of work, up to 100 feet away from the power source (depending on control cord length).
