Water cooled Tig on V205T???

admin

how do I add a water cooled TIG to a V205T?  I have 2 coolers I can use but both run water through the power cable.  the V205T runs the gas through the power cable and the gas connection is internal.  Is there some sort of plug adapter that will me to bring the gas  out at the plug so I can connect it to the correct line going to the torch?   Links, suggestions ThanksTiger Sales:  AHP Distributor    www.tigersalesco.comAHP200x; AHP 160ST; MM350P,  Spoolmatic 30A; Everlast PowerTig 185; Thermal Dynamics 60i plasma.  For Sale:  Cobra Mig 250 w/ Push-pull gun.  Lincoln Wirematic 250

Reply:Yep prop Doc, I was in on those discussions.  I have a model 20 water cooled torch,  a Bernard cooler and a Miller radiator 1 cooler and I have the power lug adapter.   I don't see a way to get the gas separated without opening the machine up and putting a T with a valve in for the gas line.  the torch is all hooked up to the miller cooler.   I would just run the SMAW stinger to the lug for power.   then I have no gas hookup point off the V205TLast edited by soutthpaw; 10-11-2011 at 04:22 PM.Tiger Sales:  AHP Distributor    www.tigersalesco.comAHP200x; AHP 160ST; MM350P,  Spoolmatic 30A; Everlast PowerTig 185; Thermal Dynamics 60i plasma.  For Sale:  Cobra Mig 250 w/ Push-pull gun.  Lincoln Wirematic 250
