Coolant Recommendations

Use Cobra Coolant (Aluminum Protection), P/N 931-0060. Cobra Coolant

does not contain reactive sulphur or chlorine and does not react with copper,

brass or aluminum.
The coolant flow rate should be a minimum of 15 GPH (1 qt/min) between

Gun Lead Connections

Power Cable - Air Cooled

A #2 power cable is used on the Python LX

Fronius Compatible

gun. The

gun and Euro Power Manifold ends of the cable are stripped to the copper

strands and wrapped with a copper strip. A setscrew holds the cable securely

in the gun body and in the Euro Power Manifold with torque requirements of

55-60 in-lb.

Power Cable - Water Cooled

Python LX Fronius Compatible water cooled gun utilizes a power/water cable

with a #6 AWG cable inside a 5/16” diameter hose. When water is used with

this cable and the #10 water cooled gas cup (P/N 621-0065), the system is

rated at 450 amps @ 60% duty cycle. The gun end is threaded into the gun

body. These connections utilize a conductive sealant and are tightened with

torque requirements of 100 + 5 IN-LB.

Conduit

The Python LX

Fronius Compatible

gun comes standard with a poly-lined

conduit, for feeding aluminum wire. The longer fitting with a shallow groove

is used on the gun end. A set screw located on top of the gun handle

secures the conduit in place. The cabinet end of the conduit is secured into

the Euro Power Manifold with a set screw.
The conduit liner extends from the Euro Power Manifold and is designed to

slide into the TPS-2700 wire drive up to the trailing drive rolls.

Gas Hose

The BLACK gas hose is pushed over a barbed fitting on the end of the gun

body and secured by twisting the hose retainer to the end of the hose (shown

next page). The opposite end of the BLACK hose is pushed over a barbed

fitting in the Euro Power Manifold. The hose retainer is re-usable and can be

removed and re-installed as needed.
