PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!
CAUTION!
Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential
locations where the electrical power is provided by the
public low-voltage supply system. There may be potential
difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility of class
A equipment in those locations, due to conducted as well
as radiated disturbances.

4 INSTALLATION
0463 348 001 -8- © ESAB AB 2017
4 INSTALLATION
The installation must be carried out by a professional.
CAUTION!
This product is intended for industrial use. In a domestic environment this product
may cause radio interference. It is the user's responsibility to take adequate
precautions.

The cooling unit is supplied from the power source, see the"OPERATION" chapter.
4.3 Installing welding equipment
Installation instruction for this product can be
found in the "ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS"
chapter".
5 OPERATION
0463 348 001 -9- © ESAB AB 2017
5 OPERATION
General safety regulations for handling the equipment can be found in the "SAFETY"
chapter of this manual. Read it through before you start using the equipment!
5.1 Connections and control devices
1. Switch for On/Off
2. Coolant filling
3. Min/max of coolant
4. Connection RED for coolant (return) to
cooling unit
5. Connection BLUE for coolant from
cooling unit
5.2 Usage of the cooling unit
CAUTION!
Important! Turn OFF the cooling unit when welding MMA or using air cooled
MIG/TIG welding torches to avoid excessive wear of the pump. Otherwise the
pump will work against a closed valve.
Turn ON the cooling unit when using a water cooled MIG welding torch to avoid
damages on the cable set.
5.3 Coolant connection
For problem free operation it is recommended that the height from the cooling unit to the
water-cooled MIG/MAG torch is a maximum of 8.5 m.
5.4 Coolant pressure controller
The pump has an enclosed pressure relief valve. The valve opens gradually when the
pressure is too high. This can occur if a hose is folded, which causes the flow to fail or stop.
6 MAINTENANCE
0463 348 001 - 10 - © ESAB AB 2017
6 MAINTENANCE
NOTE!
Regular maintenance is important for safe and reliable operation.
CAUTION!
Only those persons who have appropriate electrical knowledge (authorized
personnel) may remove the safety plates.
CAUTION!
All warranty undertakings from the supplier cease to apply if the customer
attempts any work to rectify any faults in the product during the warranty period.
6.1 Inspection and cleaning
WARNING!
The mains supply must be disconnected before cleaning.
Dust, grinding, swarf etc
The air stream through the cooling unit carries particles that become trapped in the cooling
element, particularly in dirty working environments. This results in reduced cooling capacity.
For this reason, blow clean using compressed air at regular intervals.
The coolant system
The recommended coolant must be used in the system otherwise clumps can be created that
block the pump, water connections or elements. Flushing can only be performed via red
water connection. Then drain the tank manually, i.e. empty via the tank's filling hole.
6.2 Filling the coolant
Only use ESAB's ready mixed coolant, see the "ACCESSORIES" chapter.
• Fill with coolant. (The fluid level must not
exceed the upper marking but neither
must it be below the lower marking.)
NOTE!
Coolant must be topped up if connecting a welding torch or coolant hoses that
are 5 metres in length or longer. When adjusting the water level by topping up,
the coolant hoses do not need to be disconnected.
CAUTION!
The coolant must be handled as chemical waste.
