DHCW3044-240 - Cobra DHC 2000 #3 Welding Tip for Propane

Technical Overview of the Dynaflux W3044-240

The Dynaflux W3044-240 is a high-performance water cooling system designed specifically for industrial welding applications requiring a 240V power source. Engineered to maintain optimal operating temperatures for liquid-cooled TIG torches, MIG guns, and plasma cutting torches, this unit is essential for high-amperage welding cycles where passive air cooling is insufficient. The system utilizes a positive displacement Procon rotary vane pump, a standard in the industry known for its consistent pressure delivery and long service life.

Constructed with a heavy-gauge stainless steel housing, the W3044-240 is built to withstand the rigors of a fabrication shop environment, offering superior resistance to impact and corrosion compared to plastic-housed alternatives. The cooling mechanism involves a high-efficiency radiator coupled with a dedicated fan, effectively dissipating heat from the circulating fluid before returning it to the torch. This closed-loop system minimizes water waste and ensures that the coolant remains free of external contaminants.

The unit operates on single-phase 240V input, making it compatible with standard industrial electrical drops often used for welding power sources. Key maintenance features include an easily accessible fluid fill cap and a visible water level gauge, allowing operators to verify coolant levels at a glance. The pump motor is typically thermally protected to prevent damage during extended operation or in the event of a blockage. This cooler is suitable for use with standard welding coolants, such as distilled water mixed with ethylene glycol or propylene glycol-based solutions designed for welding equipment.
