2117610 - ESAB Purox R-52 Regulator Rebuild Kit

Comprehensive Maintenance for R-52 Regulators

The ESAB Repair Kit R-52 (SKU: 2117610) is an essential maintenance package designed specifically for the overhaul of ESAB and legacy Purox R-52 series single-stage regulators. In industrial gas control systems, the regulator is a critical component governing safety and process consistency. Over time, internal soft components such as diaphragms, seats, and O-rings degrade due to pressure cycling, gas exposure, and environmental factors. This degradation can lead to pressure creep, external leaks, or inconsistent flow rates, compromising both the quality of the work and the safety of the operator.

This genuine OEM kit ensures that all replacement parts meet the exact dimensional and material specifications required for the R-52 chassis. Using non-OEM parts in gas equipment can result in catastrophic failure or voided safety certifications. The 2117610 kit includes the primary seat assembly, which is the heart of the pressure reduction mechanism, as well as the diaphragm which dictates sensitivity and response. By replacing these wear items simultaneously, technicians can restore the regulator to 'like-new' performance parameters, ensuring a stable delivery pressure and reliable shut-off capability.

Ideal for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) professionals and certified gas equipment repair technicians, this kit simplifies the refurbishment process. Rather than sourcing individual gaskets or washers, the kit provides a consolidated solution. Regular maintenance using this kit helps facilities maintain compliance with safety standards regarding compressed gas equipment and prolongs the service life of valuable brass regulator bodies.
