can this machine use a water cooled torch

It can use it if you have a water cooler, the machine amps do not require the use of a cooler. Coolers are needed over 200 amps
649104
Yes you can with proper equipment but not needed with only 185 amps wouldn't be worth the added expense save your money and buy a bigger machine then add water cooled great little machine though

Per my husband who I purchased the welder for, all welders can accept a water cooled torch as long as you have or make the proper adaptor to attach your torch to the welder. He cannot remember off hand right now but he thinks it is a standard Miller attachment.

Yes it can- it has standard din port which allows the use of any standard commercial torch. However due to only 185 max amp output and low percent on time it would be an excess expense that is not really needed. Water cooling does not flow through the machine- only the torch.

It will heat if you run the machine long enough, however you still need to cook some of your ingredients if you are making soup or sauce. Play with it.

Yes. I don't recommend buying this. I melted 2 of them with just normal operation of my heat.

Steve, I don't think so. Using this gun I tripped the thermal overload on my compressor motor while painting 12 kitchen drawers. The compressor being used was a 2HP 20Gallon tank rated for 7.8CFM@40psi / 6.3CFM@90psi.

I'm sure you could..but you'd be heating a very large area..I would use a solder gun to melt old solder..which is typically 700 to 750 degrees..

You can use the water cooled torch without the chiller(cooler), but things will get hot for medium/long runs and will take the life out of the torch

Yes, it does. In fact it uses the same tips as a popular US torch. I especially like the handle on the torch which makes it easier to manipulate, especially after using it for an extended period and it starts heating up as air cooled TIG torches do. I read a previous answer and yes its directions could be improved, however it has a lot of versatility and is really capable of doing a lot more than higher priced machines. In my opinion, its capabilities more than offsets any deficiencies. I have been welding for over 50 years and have never come across this versatile of a machine. Happy welding.

I am not qualified to answer that. The machine as it comes will not go any cooler. I am checking into changing some of the components but i'm not sure it is worth putting more money into and many people would be unable to change some of the parts.

NO! If you do it will "fry" the tool. It is made for 110 A.C. system, as in the U.S.A. I hope that helps you.

The fittings on this unit will work with almost any Bernzomatic torch appliance. I was concerned about this myself but all "panned out"

You would have to purchase a separate chiller unit, as well as a water cooled torch. You can weld metal as thick as you wish, or have patience for.

Yes, you can use WP-26 torches with this unit.Best place I found to get the torch you want with the correct connector for the 250EX welder is www.usaweld.com

The trigger allows the gas to flow; so, my guess would be yes you could in a pinch. I strongly agree with Kieth. Don't use a malfunctioning torch! Also, you could call Bernz O Matic at 1-800-654-9011 and ask them.

it heats it very well from cold to hot .However it has a coil inside that might corode in time >I would go with Magic Mill instead

At one time I had a TS4000 but it was damaged. Since I no longer have it I can't confirm for you. However, the adapter does work on other items with the same configuration, so it should work on the torch.

I used a heat gun on low setting of 750watt, worked just fine, just be careful not to get too close, it can melt it.
