OVERVIEW

Reliable Circuit Protection with ESAB 96W22

The ESAB 96W22 is a high-quality replacement fuse designed specifically for the rigorous demands of industrial welding equipment. Rated at 3.2 Amps and 250 Volts, this fuse features a "Slo-Blo" (slow-blow) or time-delay characteristic. This design is critical for welding machines and heavy electronics, as it allows for the brief, harmless surge of current that occurs when a machine is first powered on (inrush current) without blowing the fuse. However, it remains sensitive enough to open the circuit and protect valuable internal components if a sustained overload or short circuit occurs.

Using the correct fuse is a matter of safety and equipment longevity. Substituting a standard fast-acting fuse in a circuit designed for a slow-blow fuse often results in immediate failure upon startup, leading to unnecessary downtime and frustration. Conversely, using a fuse with a higher amperage rating than specified can compromise the safety of the machine, potentially leading to damaged control boards or fire hazards. The ESAB 96W22 ensures you are maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications for protection.

This component is a genuine ESAB part, ensuring perfect compatibility with the fuse holders and electrical parameters of your ESAB power source. Whether you are performing routine maintenance or troubleshooting a sudden power failure, having the correct replacement fuse on hand is essential for minimizing downtime. Trust in OEM parts to maintain the integrity and warranty of your welding assets.

FAQ

The ESAB 96W22 fuse is rated for 3.2 Amps.

This is a Slow-Blow (time-delay) fuse, designed to withstand momentary inrush currents without blowing.

The fuse is rated for a maximum of 250 Volts.

No, a fast-acting fuse will likely blow immediately upon machine startup due to inrush current. You must use the specified slow-blow fuse.

No. Never use a fuse with a higher amperage rating than specified. Doing so defeats the safety protection and can cause severe damage to your machine or a fire.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB replacement part, number 96W22.

If the replacement fuse blows immediately, there is likely a short circuit or component failure inside the machine that requires professional troubleshooting.

You can visually inspect the filament inside the glass (if visible) for a break or burn mark, or test it for continuity using a multimeter.
