OVERVIEW

Product Overview

The ESAB Rebel Remote Amperage Foot Control (SKU: 0558102666) is a critical accessory designed to enhance the TIG welding capabilities of the ESAB Rebel series of multi-process welding machines. Engineered for compatibility with models such as the Rebel EMP 215ic, EMP 235ic, EMP 285ic, and the EMP 205ic AC/DC, this device allows operators to remotely adjust welding amperage and initiate the arc via a foot-operated mechanism. This capability is essential for applications requiring precise heat input management, such as welding thin gauge materials or aluminum.

Technical Specifications

The unit features a robust steel enclosure built to withstand the rigors of industrial environments. It connects to the power source via a 15-foot (4.6-meter) cable terminated with an 8-pin Amphenol-style connector, ensuring a secure and reliable signal transmission. The pedal mechanism utilizes a high-quality potentiometer for smooth, linear current adjustment, giving the operator granular control over the welding puddle. The base is equipped with non-slip pads to prevent movement on shop floors.

Compatibility and Installation

Installation is plug-and-play; simply connect the 8-pin plug into the remote control socket on the front of your compatible Rebel machine. The machine automatically detects the remote device. This foot control is specifically mapped for the Rebel's digital interface, ensuring immediate synchronization without the need for complex calibration. It is an indispensable tool for professional fabricators looking to maximize the TIG performance of their ESAB Rebel equipment.
