C904656317 - ESAB 25-Pin Rectangular Control Socket

Industrial Grade Connectivity for Welding Systems

The ESAB Rectangular Connector 25 Pos Socket (C904656317) is a critical component designed for the maintenance and repair of sophisticated industrial welding equipment. In the realm of MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations), ensuring the integrity of electrical connections within power sources and wire feeders is paramount to maintaining operational efficiency. This connector features a robust 25-position configuration, allowing for the transmission of multiple control signals and low-voltage power lines through a single, compact interface. Its rectangular form factor is engineered to provide secure alignment, preventing mismating and ensuring a stable mechanical connection even in high-vibration environments typical of heavy fabrication shops.

Manufactured to ESAB's stringent OEM specifications, this socket ensures seamless compatibility with specific ESAB welding machines. Using genuine replacement parts is essential for preserving the electrical characteristics of the equipment, such as impedance and contact resistance, which can affect sensitive control circuits. The housing is constructed from high-grade insulating materials that offer resistance to thermal cycling and common industrial contaminants. For technicians tasked with troubleshooting communication errors or intermittent faults in welding automation or manual power sources, replacing a worn or damaged socket with this authentic ESAB part is a definitive solution that restores factory-level performance.

This component is typically utilized in internal machine wiring harnesses, control panel interfaces, or external remote connection points. Its 25-pin density makes it suitable for complex signaling requirements found in modern inverter-based welding technology. By stocking this specific connector, maintenance departments can drastically reduce downtime associated with connector failures, ensuring that production lines remain active and welding parameters remain precise.
