Torch Coolant Specifications
Note: Refer to the supplier’s most current Material Safety Data Sheet for
information regarding safety, handling, and storage of torch coolant.
The Spirit system is shipped without torch coolant in the reservoir. Coolant
must be added before applying power to the system. Only use Kaliburn
approved torch coolant solution for optimal system performance as commercially
available antifreeze contains corrosion inhibitors that will damage the cooling
system. The standard coolant solution consists of 25% industrial grade
propylene glycol and provides freezing protection down to -13º C (9º F). The
standard solution can be ordered in one-gallon containers, PN 500695. For
operating temperatures below -13º C, a 50% solution of industrial grade
propylene glycol can be ordered in one-gallon containers, PN 500895, providing
protection down to -36º C (-33º F).
Failure to use the proper propylene glycol solution may result in cooling
system and/or torch damage.
The torch coolant should be flushed out of the Spirit system every six months
and replaced with new coolant. The coolant filter / deionization cartridge should
also be changed at the same time. See Section 6 for details.
