Proper Kickless Cable Installation Methods

• Always connect the water inlet to the gun-end of the cable.
• The cable coolant system should be connected independently to the feed and drain manifolds.
• Use both water inlets and outlets where possible. If a combination of one (1) inlet and two (2) outlets or two (2) inlets and one (1) outlet is used, a 20% reduction in water flow will result. If only one (1) inlet and one (1) outlet are used, a 31.5% drop will result.
• Cables should be installed to allow all bend radii to be as large as possible. Unnecessary bends should not be permitted.
• The cable terminal should intersect the transformer buss vertically, allowing the cable to hang straight down.
• Transformers should be installed as near to the weld station as possible, permitting a cable length as short as practical.
• A lack of sufficient water will result in reduced cable life.
