The data sheet at http://frank.pocnet.net/sheets/018/g/GS35B.pdf says 
200C maximum temperature for the anode. For best lifetime use enough air 
to keep the anode well below the temperature where solder will melt.

Soldering to the anode cooler is easier if you remove the cooler and 
pre-heat it in the oven.
