The ESAB 951491 is a robust 3-pole contactor designed specifically for the demanding electrical environments found within industrial welding equipment. As a critical component in the power regulation circuit, this contactor manages the high-current switching required to initiate and terminate the welding arc or power the main transformer. It is engineered to handle a continuous load of 90 Amps, making it suitable for medium to heavy-duty welding power sources.
This unit features a 115 VAC control coil, a standard voltage for many industrial control circuits, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of ESAB machines and potentially other equipment requiring similar specifications. The 3-pole design allows for the simultaneous switching of three phases, which is essential for three-phase power sources commonly used in industrial fabrication shops. The contacts are manufactured from high-grade materials to resist oxidation, pitting, and welding, ensuring a long service life even under frequent cycling.
Proper maintenance of the contactor is vital for machine performance. A failing contactor can lead to erratic arc starts, power loss, or even damage to other internal components. The ESAB 951491 provides a direct OEM fit, ensuring that mounting points and terminal connections align perfectly with the original equipment configuration, minimizing downtime during repairs.
