EN - 10
1 Plug the cable assembly connection into the power supply and secure it with
a connection nut.
2 Properly mount the connections for coolant supply/return, shielding gas
and control lead plug. Applies only to liquid-cooled welding torches.
WARNING
Risk of burns
TIG welding torch will become overheated if the coolant level is too low.
• Wear protective gloves.
• Check the coolant level at regular intervals.
NOTE
• Check the minimum coolant level of the cooling unit.
• Make sure that the coolant supply and return have been installed
properly. Coolant supply = blue, Coolant return = red.
• Each time the device is commissioned or after each hose assembly
change, the cooling system must be ventilated as follows: Disconnect the
coolant return hose from the re-circulating cooling unit and hold it over a
collecting device. Close opening at the coolant return. Open it again by
repeatedly and abruptly releasing it, until the coolant is flowing
continuously and without air bubbles.
• We recommend the use of ABICOR BINZEL series BTC coolant for
liquid-cooled welding torches.
NOTE
• The type and quantity of the shielding gas depends on the welding task
and the gas nozzle geometry.
• Make all shielding gas connections gas-tight.
• To prevent the shielding gas supply from becoming clogged by
impurities, the cylinder valve must be opened briefly, before connecting
the cylinder. This will blow out any impurities that may be present.
