    PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The COOL ARC® 40 is a stand alone re-circulation cooling system designed for use with water-cooled TIG, MIG, PAC (Plasma Arc Cutting) and PAW (Plasma Arc Welding) guns and torches. The coolant "IN" and "OUT" connections are 5/8-18 left-hand female threads which match the standard connector nut of domestic water hoses (CGA style) and water- cooled TIG torches.
  • Page 14: Cooling Efficiency

    COOLING EFFICIENCY The high cooling efficiency of the COOL ARC® 40 offers a cooler, more comfortable Torch than a con- ventional air-cooled Torch. The COOL ARC® 40 effectively removes the heat produced by the welding arc from the gun or torch handle and places it into the exiting air flow at the back of the Cooler.
