Hi folks,
I've noticed that many people have the TA 185 inverter TIG I like to find out if any body figured out a way to syncronize torch water cooling to the gas solonoid timing or any other way.
currently I run a home made torch water cooling setup wich works very well, how ever it is on a maual ON/OFF switch, running on 110V household current.
the problem I face is when I stop welding and turn off the water cooler , yet leave the welder ON. I go and grind metal or do other fitting operations , when I return and ready to weld sometimes forget to turn on the water cooler. luckily not to the point where it would caused a "meltdown"
so HOW TO ??? hook up the cooler so it only run when the gas solonoid is turned on by the machine?
the gas timer is a perpect timing device, it tuns on 1 sec before arc, and stay on 5-15 sec after the arc is out.
thanks
