The ESAB ER 1 Remote Control (SKU: 0445536881) is a specialized digital hand control unit engineered specifically for the Renegade™ ES 300i and Renegade™ ET 300iP inverter power sources. This device interfaces with the welder via a standard 6-pin Amphenol connector, providing reliable communication for remote parameter management. It is classified as a medium-duty accessory, balancing lightweight ergonomics with industrial resilience.
Functionally, the ER 1 allows for the remote regulation of welding current (amperage) and provides a remote contactor on/off switch. This dual functionality is particularly critical for applications where the operator is positioned at a distance from the power source, such as in pipe welding, shipyards, or large-scale structural fabrication. The unit comes pre-wired with a 5-meter (approx. 16 feet) control cable, offering substantial reach for most standard welding cells and field applications.
Compatibility Note: While designed for the Renegade family, it is important to verify serial numbers for the ES 300i model. The ER 1 is suitable for use with ESAB Renegade™ ES 300i units AFTER serial number 718-xxx-xxx, as well as the Renegade™ ET 300iP. Operators should confirm their machine's serial number to ensure proper digital communication between the remote and the power source.
