OVERVIEW

Ensure Perfect Shielding with the K3338-1 Gas Flow Sensor

Every welder knows the sinking feeling of finishing a bead only to discover porosity caused by a gas interruption. Whether it's a kinked hose, an empty cylinder, or a solenoid failure, losing shielding gas is a surefire way to ruin a part and waste valuable time on grinding and rework. The Lincoln Electric K3338-1 Gas Flow Sensor is your insurance policy against these common issues. Designed specifically for the Power Feed 84, this sensor acts as a constant watchdog for your shielding gas, ensuring that you have the flow you need before and during the arc.

This accessory is a must-have for shops that prioritize quality and efficiency. It integrates seamlessly into your Power Feed 84, working in the background to verify that gas is actually flowing to the nozzle. It’s not just about pressure; it’s about actual flow. If the sensor detects a drop in flow, it communicates with your machine to prevent you from welding without protection. This feature is particularly valuable in noisy shop environments where the hiss of gas might not be audible, or in high-production settings where every second counts.

Flexibility is a key feature of the Power Feed 84, and the K3338-1 matches that versatility. If you are running a single head feeder, you simply install one kit. For those utilizing the advanced dual-head capabilities of the Power Feed 84—perhaps running solid wire on one side and flux-cored on the other—you can fully instrument your rig by installing a sensor on each head. This ensures that no matter which gun you grab, the machine has your back. Don't leave your weld quality to chance; upgrade your feeder with genuine Lincoln Electric sensing technology.

FAQ

The K3338-1 is a Gas Flow Sensor designed to monitor the presence and flow of shielding gas in Lincoln Electric Power Feed 84 wire feeders.

This sensor is compatible with all models of the Lincoln Electric Power Feed 84.

For dual head Power Feed 84 units, you must install one K3338-1 sensor on each head, meaning two sensors are required for the complete system.

No, the K3338-1 is a flow sensor used for monitoring purposes. It does not replace the gas regulator or flowmeter at the cylinder or manifold.

Yes, the K3338-1 is a genuine Lincoln Electric accessory designed specifically for their equipment.

No, the K3338-1 is explicitly listed for compatibility with Power Feed 84 models. Other feeders may require different accessory kits.

Yes, Lincoln Electric accessory kits typically include the necessary hardware and instructions for installation.

When integrated correctly with the Power Feed 84 settings, the sensor can trigger alarms or interlocks to prevent welding when gas flow is insufficient.
