use special torch coolant!
p/n156f05. Due to high electrical conductivity, Do not use tap wa-
ter or commercial antifreeze for torch cooling. a specially formulat-
ed torch coolant is
reQuIreD. this coolant also protects for freezing to –34°c.
operating the unit without coolant will cause permanent damage to
the coolant pump.
coolant p/n 0558004297 is available for temperatures of +12° f.
Marking with the pt-24 torch and the Ifc does not utilize a propor-
tional valve to regulate argon pressure. an external regulator for
the argon supply must be set to 85 psI (5,6 bar). see marking pro-
cess data for more information.
