33035 - ESAB PCC-90D/91 Gas Orifice 40 SCFH

Precision Gas Control for ESAB Plasma Consoles

The ESAB 33035 Orifice is a specialized gas metering component engineered for use in ESAB and L-TEC plasma cutting systems, specifically the PCC-90D and PCC-91 Plasma Control Consoles. In high-precision plasma cutting, the regulation of gas flow is a critical variable that directly influences the quality of the cut, the life of consumables, and the stability of the plasma arc. This orifice is precision-machined to deliver a fixed flow rate of 40 SCFH (Standard Cubic Feet per Hour), ensuring that the plasma torch receives the exact volume of gas required for optimal operation.

As an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) replacement part, the ESAB 33035 guarantees compatibility and performance that matches the original factory specifications of your equipment. Generic or improvised flow restrictors often fail to provide the consistent laminar flow needed for high-quality plasma streams, leading to turbulence, arc wandering, or premature torch failure. This component is essential for maintenance technicians and industrial repair specialists tasked with refurbishing or troubleshooting legacy PCC-series consoles. It serves as a calibrated restriction point within the gas plumbing circuit, maintaining back-pressure and flow volume according to the system's design parameters.

Over time, orifices can become clogged with contaminants from the gas supply or eroded by high-velocity gas flow, leading to drift in flow rates. Replacing the orifice with a genuine ESAB 33035 unit is a standard maintenance procedure to restore system accuracy. Whether you are operating a manual cutting setup or an automated gantry system utilizing the PCC-90D/91 architecture, this part is vital for maintaining the process integrity of your plasma cutting operations.
