0445045880 - ESAB EC 1000 Water Cooler for Tig/Mig 3000i

Advanced Thermal Management for Industrial Welding

The ESAB EC1000 Cooler Complete (0445045880) is a high-performance water cooling unit engineered specifically for integration with ESAB's advanced inverter power sources, such as the Origo Tig 3000i, Aristo Tig 4000i, and Mig C3000i series. In heavy industrial environments where welding equipment is pushed to its limits, effective thermal management is not just a luxury—it is a necessity. The EC1000 ensures that your water-cooled TIG torches and MIG guns remain at safe operating temperatures, preventing overheating and ensuring consistent arc stability throughout long weld cycles.

Seamless Integration and Design

Designed with a modular philosophy, the EC1000 attaches directly to the bottom of compatible ESAB power sources, creating a unified, compact welding station. This eliminates the need for long, trailing hoses or separate power supplies, as the unit draws its power and control signals directly from the main machine. The chassis is built to withstand the rigors of the shop floor, featuring a robust housing that protects internal components from dust and impact.

Reliability and Protection

At the heart of the EC1000 is a corrosion-resistant plastic tank and a high-efficiency pump system. The use of corrosion-resistant materials prevents the buildup of rust and contaminants in the coolant lines, which can otherwise clog narrow torch passages and lead to failure. Furthermore, the unit is equipped with an integrated flow guard. This critical safety feature monitors coolant circulation in real-time; if flow is interrupted due to a kinked hose or low fluid level, the system signals the power source to inhibit welding, thereby saving your expensive torch from catastrophic thermal damage.

Key Technical Benefits

• Extended Duty Cycle: Allows for continuous welding at higher amperages without torch overheating.


• Consumable Longevity: Cooler running temperatures significantly reduce the wear rate of collets, collet bodies, and contact tips.


• Plug-and-Play: Automatic detection and power management when connected to supported ESAB machines.

For professional fabricators relying on ESAB's industrial line, the EC1000 is the standard for liquid cooling, ensuring that your equipment performs as well on the last weld of the shift as it did on the first.
