951916 - ESAB 14-Pin Remote Receptacle Kit

Genuine ESAB 14-Pin Connection Interface

The ESAB 951916 Connection Box Receptacle (designated 14FS X-ROT) is a critical replacement component designed for ESAB industrial welding power sources. This assembly features a standard 14-pin female socket configuration, widely utilized in the industry for interfacing remote control devices such as foot pedals, hand amperage controls, and mechanized automation equipment. As a genuine OEM part, it guarantees strict adherence to ESAB's manufacturing tolerances, ensuring a secure mechanical fit and optimal electrical continuity.

In industrial environments, the connection points on welding machines are subject to frequent mating cycles, mechanical stress, and exposure to shop contaminants. Over time, pins can become loose, oxidized, or damaged, leading to intermittent control signals or complete failure of remote functionality. The 951916 receptacle restores the integrity of these control circuits. It is engineered to handle the low-voltage control signals required for contactor closure and potentiometer reference voltages, ensuring that the operator's input is accurately translated to the power source output.

Installation of this receptacle typically involves panel mounting on the machine chassis and connecting the internal wiring harness to the rear of the socket. The unit is constructed with high-grade materials to resist thermal cycling and impact, maintaining safety and performance standards. By utilizing authentic ESAB replacement parts, maintenance teams can ensure the longevity of their capital equipment and avoid the risks associated with generic, ill-fitting connectors.

Technical Specifications

The "14FS" designation indicates a 14-pin Female Socket, a standard often associated with Amphenol-style connectors used in welding. This specific unit is tailored for ESAB's internal wiring schemes and chassis cutouts. It is essential for operations requiring precise remote parameter adjustments, particularly in TIG (GTAW) and advanced MIG (GMAW) applications where dynamic control is necessary.
