OPERATION

4.

Coolant Reservoir

The coolant reservoir supplies the system with cool-
ant to cool the torch and torch parts during opera-
tion. The maximum capacity of the reservoir is two
gallons of coolant.

Inside the reservoir, in the filler hole, is a basket
and deionizer bag. The bag removes charged par-
ticles from the coolant after it is returned to the
reservoir and prevents the coolant from becom-
ing conductive. If the coolant becomes conduc-
tive it must be replaced (see NOTE).

NOTE

Refer to Section 5.02, General Maintenance, sub-
sections 'E' and 'F' for procedures on checking and
replacing coolant.

).

6.

Two Stage Air Line Filter

Filter will remove moisture and contaminants from
the air stream when using compressed air. The
filter is capable of filtering to at least 5 microns.

7.

CNC Connector (J22)

External connector provided for connection of
CNC Control, Standoff Control SC11 or Remote
Hand Pendant Control.

8.

Knockout

Knockout provided that allows internal connec-
tion of CNC Control to a Terminal Block.

NOTE

GAS indicator will not come ON if the gas pres-
sure is set below 40 psi (2.8 bar) at the Regulator/
Filter Assembly or if coolant flow switch is not sat-
isfied.
