c. Connect the air supply hose (see note) to the Air Line
Filter input port (IN) barb fitting and secure with a cus-
tomer supplied hose clamp.
NOTE
The supply hose must be 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) mini-
mum inside diameter to provide adequate air flow.
D. Using Water Secondary
NOTES
Tap water should only be used as a secondary on
machine torches.
The tap water source does not need to be deionized,
but in water systems with extremely high mineral
content a water softener is recommended.
Tap water with high levels of particulate matter
must be filtered.
Tap water can be used instead of a secondary gas and is
connected to the Power Supply as follows:
1. The tap water source must be capable of delivering a
minimum water pressure of 50 - 100 psi (3.5 - 6.9 bar)
and flow of 9 gph (34 lph).
2. Connect the tap water supply hose to the input of a
Water Pressure Regulator.
3. Connect the output of the water regulator to the fitting
marked SECONDARY H2O (water) on the rear panel
of the Power Supply.
