0449500880 - ESAB 15m Control Cable for LAF Power Source and PEI Interface

Reliable Connection for Automated Welding Systems

The ESAB 0449500880 Control Cable is a critical component designed to bridge the gap between ESAB's renowned LAF series power sources and the PEI process interface units. In the demanding world of Submerged Arc Welding (SAW), reliable communication between the power supply and the control unit is paramount. This 15-meter (approximately 49 feet) cable provides the necessary length to configure your welding cell efficiently, allowing the controller to be placed at a safe and convenient distance from the heavy-duty power source.

Precision Engineering for Signal Integrity

Automated welding processes rely on precise feedback and control signals to maintain arc stability, deposition rates, and overall weld quality. This control cable is engineered with high-quality, shielded conductors that protect sensitive control signals from electromagnetic interference (EMI) common in industrial environments. Whether you are running an LAF 631, 1001, or 1251 DC power source, this cable ensures that your voltage and amperage commands are transmitted accurately to the PEI controller, resulting in consistent and repeatable welds.

Built for Industrial Durability

Constructed to withstand the rigors of heavy manufacturing, the cable features a robust outer jacket that resists abrasion, oil, and workshop grime. The connectors are designed for secure mating, preventing accidental disconnections due to vibration or cable movement. The 23-28P configuration ensures that all necessary control channels are established, supporting the full functionality of your ESAB automation equipment. By using genuine ESAB replacement cables, you maintain the integrity of your system and avoid the troubleshooting headaches associated with inferior aftermarket alternatives.

Application Versatility

This cable is specifically tailored for setups utilizing the PEI (Process Equipment Interface), a standard in many ESAB automatic welding installations. Its 15-meter length is ideal for gantry systems, column and boom manipulators, or tractor setups where the power source remains stationary while the welding head moves. Investing in the correct cabling is an investment in the uptime and efficiency of your production line.
