Device concept
TTW 4500 / 5500 PAP device concept
Application areas The robot welding torches are used in, e.g.:
- Pipeline and equipment construction
- Container construction
- Applications requiring the highest quality standards
- Applications using special materials (e.g. titanium, nickel-based alloys)
- The automobile and the automotive component supply industries
The TTW 4500 and TTW 5500 watercooled TIG robot welding torches are used
for TIG welding.
The welding torches have a Fronius F++
connection as standard. Various adapters
are available to enable the torches to be
operated with any standard TIG welding
machine. Each torch can be equipped with
a pushed wire-feed unit and a drag gas
nozzle. The hosepack can also be used
for certain plasma torches.

General Regular preventive maintenance of the welding torch is essential for problem-free opera-
tion. The welding torch is subjected to high temperatures. It therefore requires more frequent maintenance than other components in the welding system.
At every start-up - Check welding torch, hosepack and power connections for signs of damage
- Check gas and water connections for leaks
- Check that the cooling unit is working properly, monitor the water return level in the
- Check that the wearing parts are in perfect condition, clean wearing parts before fit-
WARNING!
Before carrying out any work on the welding torch:
Turn the power source mains switch to the "O" position
Unplug the power source from the mains

coolant container, vent the cooling unit if necessary
ting them
Monthly - If applicable, check the filter in the cooling circuit for contamination
- Check that coolant is pure; if there are any impurities, replace the coolant and rinse
the welding torch thoroughly several times by letting coolant flow into it and back out
again
- Dismantle the welding torch and check for deposits/contamination
Disposal Dispose of in accordance with the applicable national and local regulations.
