Abstract
A hose assembly includes a plurality of lines for supplying a welding torch with operating media, such as welding current, welding wire, protective gas and/or control signals. The lines include a coolant line for feeding cooling medium of a coolant source to a welding torch. The hose assembly has a coupling element for detachably connecting to a welding unit or to a welding torch. A further coupling element for the coolant line is integrated in the coupling element. The coupling and decoupling direction of the further coupling element is orientated transverse to the longitudinal axis of the hose assembly. The coupling elements can each be coupled and decoupled independently from each other. A plug element is used in the coupling element. The coolant line has a plug connection.
