OVERVIEW

Restore Precision to Your ESAB Equipment

The ESAB Potentiometer 2.5 kOhms (0191870212) is a critical replacement component designed to restore the functionality and accuracy of your ESAB welding machinery. Over time, the potentiometers—commonly known as control pots or dials—on welding power sources and wire feeders can wear out due to frequent adjustment, dust ingress, or general electrical fatigue. A failing potentiometer often manifests as erratic settings, "dead spots" where the machine does not respond to dial changes, or drifting parameters during operation. This genuine ESAB replacement part ensures that your machine behaves exactly as the manufacturer intended.

Rated at 2.5 kOhms, this variable resistor is engineered to provide smooth, linear resistance changes, translating your physical dial adjustments into precise electrical signals for the control board. Whether it controls voltage, amperage, or wire feed speed, having a reliable potentiometer is essential for achieving consistent weld quality. Using non-OEM or generic electrical components in sophisticated welding inverters or feeders can lead to calibration issues or premature failure. By choosing this authentic ESAB part, you guarantee compatibility and durability.

Installation of internal electrical components should always be performed by qualified personnel to ensure safety and proper calibration. This component is built to withstand the rigors of industrial environments, featuring robust contacts and a durable housing. Keep your production line running smoothly and your weld parameters locked in by replacing worn-out controls with this high-quality spare part.

Key Benefits

  • OEM Reliability: Designed specifically for ESAB circuitry.
  • Precise Control: Eliminates jumpy or unresponsive dial settings.

FAQ

Common symptoms include erratic or jumpy readings when turning the dial, 'dead spots' where the setting doesn't change, or the inability to reach the maximum or minimum settings.

Yes, this is an authentic ESAB OEM replacement part, ensuring perfect fit and function for your equipment.

This potentiometer is rated at 2.5 kOhms.

We recommend that all internal electrical repairs be performed by a qualified technician to ensure safety and prevent damage to the machine.

No, it is specific to certain models. Please check your machine's parts manual or contact support with your serial number to verify compatibility.

Typically, potentiometers are sold as the electrical component only. You usually reuse the existing knob or purchase it separately.

OEM potentiometers have the correct resistance curve (linear vs. logarithmic) and physical dimensions required for the machine's control board.

It acts as a variable resistor that sends a signal to the control board to adjust parameters like voltage, amperage, or wire speed.
