Supply gas plumbing
Rigid copper plumbing or suitable flexible hose may be used for all gas supplies. Do not use steel or aluminum pipe.
After installation, pressurize the entire system and check for leaks.
Recommended hose diameters are 9.5 mm (3/8 in.) for lengths < 23 m (75 ft) and 12.5 mm (1/2 in.) for
lengths > 23 m (75 ft).
For flexible-hose systems, use a hose designed for inert gas to carry air, nitrogen or argon-hydrogen. See the last page
of this section for hose part numbers.
Note: When cutting with oxygen as the plasma gas, air must also be connected to theselection console to
achieve the proper mixtures in the preflow and cutflowmodes.
Caution: When connecting the selection console to the supply gases, make sure that
allhoses, hose connections and fittings are acceptable for use with oxygen
and argon-hydrogen. Installation must be made in accordance with national
and local codes.
WARNING
CUTTING WITH OXYGEN CAN CAUSE FIRE OR EXPLOSION
Cutting with oxygen as the plasma gas can cause a potential fire hazard due to the oxygen-enriched
atmosphere that it creates. As a precaution, Hypertherm recommends that an exhaust ventilation
system be installed when cutting with oxygen.
Flashback arrestors are required (unless not available for specific gases or required pressures)
toprevent fire from propagating back to supply gas.
Caution: Never use PTFE tape on any joint preparation.
