No personal experience here with your tubes or set-up, but lots of
experience with water treatment in industrial applications. First, for
1200 volts I think that nearly any plastic tubing will be fine considering
the wall thickness of typical tubing. Second, most water cooled tubes
assume the use low conductivity cooling water and a recirculating
system. Bottled distilled or de-ionized water will typically have a
conductivity of well under 5 micromhos (quite often < 1 micromho).

All, <br>
Have a question on water cooling 2C39 Tubes. I am new to water cooling
any <br>
kind of tubes. I just acquired a 1296 Dual 2C39 Amp with water jackets
<br>
installed on the 2C39 tubes. I understand that these jackets are at the
1200 <br>
VDC Potential. If I run water through the jackets, should I be concerned
<br>
about any conductivity that might flow through the water to ground ( Is
there <br>
such a condition ?? ). What kind of non conductive tubing can I use to
flow <br>
the water through the tubes ( aquarium tubing or something ??? ). <br>
