634515 - ESAB Replacement SPDT Toggle Switch 15A 125V

Technical Overview of the ESAB SPDT Toggle Switch

The ESAB 634515 is a robust Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) toggle switch designed for industrial control applications and equipment repair. Engineered to handle a current load of 15 Amps at 125 Volts, this component is suitable for a wide range of power regulation and circuit selection tasks within welding power sources, fume extractors, and auxiliary industrial machinery. The SPDT configuration allows the switch to control a single circuit with two potential output paths, or to simply function as a robust on-off controller depending on the wiring scheme utilized.

Reliability is paramount in MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) environments. This switch features a durable toggle mechanism capable of withstanding the mechanical stress of frequent actuation. The 2-position design provides tactile feedback, ensuring the operator is aware of the switch's state. One of the critical design features for maintenance efficiency is the inclusion of Quick Connect / Disconnect (Q/D) terminals. These spade-style terminals allow technicians to replace faulty switches rapidly without the need for soldering, minimizing downtime during critical repair windows.

This component is often utilized as a direct replacement part for ESAB welding equipment but is versatile enough for general electrical MRO. When integrating this switch, technicians should verify that the 15A/125V rating meets or exceeds the circuit requirements of the equipment being serviced. The compact body design ensures compatibility with standard panel cutouts, making it an essential stock item for industrial electrical repair kits.
