OVERVIEW

Genuine ESAB 951982 Pressure Switch for ESP-100i Systems

The ESAB 951982 Pressure Switch is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the ESAB ESP-100i and related Precision Plasma cutting systems. In the demanding environment of industrial metal cutting, the reliability of internal sensors is paramount to maintaining uptime and safety. This switch, identified in technical diagrams as "SW PRESS FC-PREC PLAS/ESP-100I", serves as the guardian of your machine's pneumatic integrity, ensuring that the plasma torch receives the correct air or gas pressure required for operation.

When a plasma cutter's pressure switch fails, the machine often enters a fault state to protect the torch consumables and the power source from damage caused by low gas flow. Replacing a faulty sensor with this genuine ESAB part restores the communication between your gas supply and the machine's control board. As an OEM part, it guarantees a perfect physical fit and correct electrical calibration, eliminating the guesswork associated with universal switches that may not trigger at the precise thresholds required by the ESP-100i architecture.

At Josef Gas, we understand that equipment downtime translates directly to lost productivity. That is why we stock authentic repair parts like the 951982 to help you get your cutting table or manual plasma system back online quickly. This switch is engineered to withstand the vibration, dust, and electrical noise common in welding and fabrication shops, providing a long service life and reliable performance.

Key Benefits of OEM Replacement Parts

  • Exact Calibration: The switch is factory-set to the specific PSI requirements of the ESP-100i, ensuring the arc only strikes when cooling and shielding gas flow is sufficient.
  • Plug-and-Play Installation: Designed with the correct mounting points and terminal connections for ESAB internal wiring harnesses.
  • System Protection: Prevents catastrophic torch failure by inhibiting operation during gas supply interruptions.

Whether you are performing routine maintenance or troubleshooting a "low pressure" error code on your ESP-100i, the ESAB 951982 is the correct solution for restoring factory-spec functionality to your precision plasma equipment.

FAQ

It monitors the input gas pressure to ensure it is sufficient for safe plasma cutting, preventing the machine from firing if pressure is too low.

It is specifically listed for the ESP-100i and related 'Precision Plasma' (FC-PREC PLAS) configurations. Check your parts manual for other models.

Common symptoms include the machine failing to arc, error lights related to gas/air pressure despite a good supply, or intermittent cutting capability.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB Original Equipment Manufacturer replacement part.

No, bypassing safety switches is dangerous and can lead to immediate torch destruction or equipment damage due to lack of cooling air.

OEM parts typically come with a basic diagram or sheet, but installation should be performed by a qualified technician referencing the machine's service manual.

A technician can test the switch for continuity using a multimeter while applying the rated air pressure to see if the contacts close appropriately.

It is usually located inside the power source chassis, near the gas inlet solenoid assembly.
