950704 - ESAB 85A 1200V Reverse Polarity Power Diode

Reliable Power Rectification for Industrial Welders

The ESAB 950704 is a high-performance reverse polarity diode designed specifically for the demanding environment of industrial welding equipment. Rated at 85 Amps and 1200 Volts, this component plays a critical role in the main rectifier assembly of your welding power source. In welding machines, diodes are the workhorses that convert alternating current (AC) from the wall into the direct current (DC) used for the welding arc. When a diode fails, it can lead to a loss of power, an unstable arc, or a complete machine shutdown.

Choosing genuine OEM parts like the ESAB 950704 ensures that your equipment operates within its original factory specifications. This diode is engineered to handle the rapid thermal cycling and high-voltage spikes inherent in welding operations. Its reverse polarity configuration is essential for specific positions within the rectifier bridge, working in tandem with standard polarity diodes to direct current flow correctly. Whether you are performing routine maintenance or an emergency repair, installing the correct specification diode is vital for the longevity and safety of your machine.

At Josef Gas, we understand that equipment downtime translates to lost productivity. That is why we supply high-quality repair parts like this 85A 1200V diode to help you get your systems back online quickly.
