Miller syncrowave 300p Cooling system configuration.

[Undernutter]

Morning folks,

As per the title, I want to know how to correctly connect up the external cooling unit.

It currently goes out of the chiller, into the torch, and back into the chiller.

There are in and outlet ports on the syncrowave (pictured) but the manual is vague about whether or not these should be connected up in addition to a watercooled torch.

Until I read that, I assumed I should connect:
output of chiller to input of syncrowave,
output of syncrowave to input of torch,
output of torch to input of chiller.

Or torch first then syncrowave? or leave the syncrowave out of the circuit?

How has everyone else done it?

thanks in advance

Dave

The machine itself is not water cooled. IIRC (on older syncrowaves at least) they were for use with water from the mains, maybe have a solenoid valve to minimise waste when the machine is idling(?) and ignored with a recirculating cooler which'd be connected as you currently have things. Probably already aware but just in case the dedicated water hose on the torch is the inlet from the cooler, return through the power line
