Adjusting Plasma Gas
If you have increased torch lead length from 50 feet or under to 75 feet or over, the plasma gas pressure must be
re-adjusted to accommodate the extra torch lead length:
1. At the front panel of the MAX200 power supply while in TEST mode, adjust the PLASMA gas valve control by
increasing the TEST pressure approximately 5 psi per 50 ft of lead length (beyond 50 ft) from what is called
out in the Cut Charts. See note on page 4-17.
