Gun Lead Connections

Power Cable

A #2 AWG power cable is used on the Millermatic Compatible™ Python®. The gun end of the cable has a fitting crimped to the copper cable strands. This fitting is then threaded into the gun body. The cabinet end of the power cable is incorporated into the Power Pin connector.

The power cable gun end is a threaded fitting which screws into the gun body. The cabinet end is secured in the central body with a set screw. These connections utilize a conductive sealant and are tightened to a specific torque setting (reference exploded parts drawing in the Appendix for details) .

Conduit

The Millermatic Compatible™ Python® comes standard with a poly-lined conduit, for feeding aluminum wire. The longer fitting with a shallow groove is used on the gun end. A set screw located on top of the gun handle secures the conduit in place. The cabinet end of the conduit is secured into the Power Pin connector with a set screw.

Gas Hose

The gas hose is pushed over barbed fittings on both gun body and the Power Pin connector and is secured with a plastic tie wrap.

Electric Cable

A multi-conductor control cable is used on the Millermatic Compatible™ Python®. The gun end of the cable is secured with a cable clamp and the wires are connected to the potentiometer, the micro switch, the motor and the gun body mechanically. Slack is left in the electric cable as it exits the back of the gun to prevent cable and/or wire breakage. The cabinet end of the control cable uses a 10-Pin, "X" clocked Amphenol connector.
