SYNCROWAVE 351 - Q's

[Chuck U&R]

Currently at auction is a -
MILLER SYNCROWAVE 351, CC AC/ DC WELDING POWER SOURCE.
When they 'power source' I'm assuming they mean the machine
without the leads, pedal etc. Could I be wrong ?

I may be in over my head but this could be one of those golden opportunitys.

I doubt that I can test fire the machine so -
What do I look for - if I can open it up is there anything inside I need to look at ?

Are parts and service still available ?


Any Idea what it may be worth ?
An Ebay search brought up -0-.

Any input that might be helpful would be appreciated.

Thanx, Chuck U&R

You can go to Miller's web site and learn about Syncros or click on this link to the current production 350.
It is one hell of a power source, but I'd be a little hesitant to buy without test driving unless I bought it CHEAP.

I took the liberty of grabbing the Technical Manual of the Syncrowave 351 for you Chuck. Hope ITW doesn't reprimand me. :eek: You can also tell the age of the machine by the first two letters in the serial number. The first letter is the decade, J=80's, K=90's, L=00's. The second letter is the year, A=0, B=1, and so on. Hopefully you can identify it further to see f indeed it's a "golden" opportunity.

Good Luck

I would say that the 351 is a very nice machine.My brother in-law traded his in on a aerowave.It melted(nobody could fix it),so they bought a new 350DX.Now they are about back where they started!:D
