0000829680 - ESAB Replacement Circuit Breaker OSMC32N2D2

Genuine ESAB Electrical Protection Component

The ESAB Circuit Breaker, part number OSMC32N2D2 (SKU 0000829680), is a critical replacement component designed for the maintenance and repair of ESAB welding power sources. In industrial welding environments, the electrical systems of power sources are subjected to rigorous demands, including high inrush currents and fluctuating loads. The circuit breaker serves as the primary line of defense for the machine's internal electronics, protecting expensive inverters, transformers, and control boards from overcurrent events and short circuits. Using a genuine OEM breaker ensures that the trip characteristics—specifically the thermal and magnetic trip curves—are perfectly matched to the machine's design specifications.

This unit is engineered to replace the original equipment manufacturer's breaker found in specific ESAB models. It features a robust construction capable of withstanding the vibration and thermal cycling often present in industrial workshops. The breaker typically mounts via a standard DIN rail system within the machine's enclosure, allowing for a secure and organized installation. The toggle mechanism provides a clear visual indication of the circuit status (Open/Closed) and allows for manual disconnection of power during maintenance procedures. Failure to replace a faulty breaker with the correct part number can lead to compromised safety, frequent nuisance tripping during welding, or catastrophic damage to the power source if the protection rating is incorrect.

Maintenance personnel should verify the part number OSMC32N2D2 against the machine's parts list or the markings on the existing component before installation. This component is essential for restoring the operational integrity of the welding system, ensuring that it meets all original safety compliance standards. By utilizing authentic ESAB parts, facilities maintain the reliability and longevity of their capital equipment.
