1. Determine heater(s) wattage
Example: E4-05 w/500 watt lamps
Wattage = 4 x 500 = 2000 watts
2. Determine cooling factor (Fc)
Model
Fc Description
E4 0.9
All
5193
0.9 Multiple 5193's facing each other
5193
0.7 5193(s) facing target > 800 ºC
5193
0.5 5193(s) facing target from 400 ºC to 800 ºC
5193
0.3 5193(s) facing target < 400 ºC
5305
0.9 Multiple 5305's facing each other
5305
0.6 5305(s) facing target > 800 ºC
5305
0.4 5305(s) facing target from 400 ºC to 800 ºC
5305
0.2 5305(s) facing target < 400 ºC
3. Calculate cooling load (Lc)
Lc = Heater wattage x Fc
Example: Lc = 2000 x 0.9 = 1800 watts
4. Determine number of C100's needed
C100 rating = 3300 watts
Lc = 1800 watts

Installation
1. Connect the water fittings to the cooling unit and the heater. Use Teflon tape thread
lubricant around the pipe thread fittings. Refer to the figures in the back of this
manual for installation with various heater configurations.
2. Connect water hoses to fittings marked "Water From Welding Equipment" and Water
To Welding Equipment". The “Welding Equipment” is the IR heater. Flow direction
through the heater does not matter.
