0332556001 - ESAB Protective Guard for U82 Remote Pendant

Heavy-Duty Protection for ESAB Control Units

The ESAB Pendant Guard (0332556001) is a critical accessory designed to safeguard your investment in advanced welding automation and control technology. In the demanding environment of heavy fabrication, shipyards, and construction sites, remote control pendants are frequently exposed to hazards such as drops, crushing, and impact from heavy workpieces. This robust protective guard acts as a roll cage for your ESAB remote pendant (commonly compatible with units like the U82), ensuring that the sensitive electronics, LCD screens, and control knobs remain intact even under rough handling.

Rugged Construction & Design

Manufactured from high-quality metal, the guard is engineered to absorb shock and deflect impact away from the controller's housing. Its open-frame design provides maximum protection without compromising usability. Operators retain full access to all buttons, dials, and the touchscreen interface, ensuring that workflow is never interrupted. The guard's geometry is specifically tailored to the contours of ESAB pendants, providing a secure fit that doesn't add excessive bulk or weight, maintaining the ergonomic comfort required for long shifts.

Cost-Effective Insurance

Replacing a sophisticated welding controller or remote pendant can be a significant expense, not to mention the cost of downtime while waiting for a replacement. The ESAB Pendant Guard serves as a cost-effective insurance policy, drastically reducing the risk of accidental damage. Whether the pendant is dragged across a concrete floor, knocked off a welding table, or struck by a swinging cable, this guard provides the mechanical barrier needed to keep your equipment operational. It is an essential addition for any fleet using ESAB's advanced wire feeders and power sources with remote capabilities.

Installation and Utility

Installation is straightforward, attaching securely to the pendant body. The guard also often facilitates better handling, providing sturdy points to grip or hang the unit when not in use. By keeping the screen elevated off rough surfaces when placed face-down, it prevents scratches and cracks that could render the display unreadable. Equip your welding setup with the ESAB Pendant Guard to ensure longevity and reliability in the toughest working conditions.
