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.
