OVERVIEW

Restore Your Ultima 150 to Factory Performance

Keep your plasma welding operations running smoothly with the Thermal Dynamics 5-2998 Shield Flowmeter. Designed as a direct replacement for the Ultima 150 Plasma Welding power source, this component is vital for the proper regulation of shielding gas. When your equipment's flowmeter becomes cracked, leaks, or becomes illegible, it jeopardizes the quality of every weld you produce. This genuine OEM part ensures you can trust your gas settings again.

The Ultima 150 is a workhorse in the industry, known for its precision and versatility. This replacement flowmeter supports that reputation by offering consistent gas delivery. It is engineered to handle the specific pressure and flow requirements of the Ultima 150's shielding gas circuit. Unlike universal flowmeters that may require retrofitting or adapters, the 5-2998 is built to drop right into the machine's console, making the repair process quick and frustration-free.

Proper shielding gas flow is the first line of defense against weld defects. If your flowmeter is inaccurate, you may be wasting expensive gas or, worse, starving the weld pool and causing rework. This replacement unit features high-visibility markings and a smooth-operating adjustment valve (if applicable to the specific sub-assembly configuration), allowing for fine-tuning of gas coverage. It is compatible with standard shielding gases used in plasma welding, such as Argon and Argon/Hydrogen blends.

Invest in the longevity of your equipment by using only authentic Thermal Dynamics parts. The 5-2998 Shield Flowmeter is built to withstand the rigors of the industrial environment while providing the delicate control needed for precision joining applications. Get your machine back to spec and ensure your welds remain clean and strong.

FAQ

This flowmeter is specifically designed for the Thermal Dynamics Ultima 150 Plasma Welding System.

This part (5-2998) is the Shield Flowmeter. The Ultima 150 typically uses separate flowmeters for Plasma Gas and Shield Gas.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM replacement part manufactured by Thermal Dynamics (ESAB).

It is not recommended. It is sized and calibrated specifically for the Ultima 150 console and its internal plumbing.

You should replace it if the tube is cracked, leaking, the ball is stuck, or if the scale has become unreadable due to clouding or damage.

Typically, panel-mount flowmeters for these units are assemblies that may include the metering valve, but please verify your specific machine generation as some use separate valves.
