OVERVIEW

Protect Your Gear with the Smartest Cooler in the Shop

If you are running a Lincoln Power Wave S-Series machine, the Cool Arc 55 S is the only water cooler you should be looking at. This isn't just a bucket and a pump; it's a smart accessory that actually talks to your welder. Thanks to the ArcLink connection, this cooler knows exactly when you pull the trigger. It kicks on the moment you strike an arc and shuts down when you're done, saving you from the constant hum of a running pump and saving the pump itself from wearing out while you're fitting up parts or taking a break. It’s designed to sit perfectly with your S350 or S500, making your rig look clean and professional while keeping your footprint small.

We all know that frying a water-cooled torch is an expensive mistake that happens too fast. The Cool Arc 55 S has your back with built-in flow protection. If you kink a hose, run dry, or lose pressure for any reason, the cooler instantly tells your welder to cut the power. You literally cannot burn up a gun due to lack of coolant with this system hooked up. It takes the worry out of the equation so you can focus on the puddle. With a nearly 2.5-gallon tank, you have plenty of thermal mass to keep running cool even on heavy 500-amp jobs.

Maintenance is a breeze too. The tank is made of non-corrosive material, so you don't have to worry about rust flakes clogging up your tiny torch lines. It handles everything from delicate TIG work to heavy-duty spray transfer MIG and even plasma cutting. Whether you are setting up a robotic cell or just want the most reliable cooling for your hand welding station, the Cool Arc 55 S is built to work as hard as you do without complaining. Plug it in, hook up the ArcLink cable, and let the machine handle the rest.

FAQ

The Cool Arc 55 S is specifically designed to integrate with Lincoln Electric Power Wave S-Series (such as the S350 and S500) and Power Wave R-Series power sources.

ArcLink allows the cooler to communicate with the welder, enabling it to turn on only when an arc is present. This saves energy and extends the life of the pump.

The reservoir holds approximately 2.375 gallons of coolant.

Yes, it features a flow sensor that communicates with the power source to prohibit welding output if no coolant flow is detected, protecting your torch.

The Cool Arc 55 S is rated to cool TIG, MIG, and plasma torches up to 500 amps.

The unit operates on 115V, single-phase, 60Hz power.

Yes, it is recommended for both robotic and hand-held applications due to its rugged design and integration capabilities.

No, the reservoir is made from non-corrosive material to eliminate the possibility of rust and contamination.
