3. Secondary Gas Pressure Regulator/Filter Assem-
bly
Pressure Regulator to adjust the secondary input
gas pressure to the Power Supply. The Pressure
Regulator has a built-in air line filter.
4. Coolant Reservoir
The coolant reservoir supplies the system with
coolant to cool the torch and torch parts during
operation. The maximum capacity of the reser-
voir 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.
5. Gas Input
Input connections for plasma and secondary gases.
Acceptable gases are as follows:
Plasma Gases - Air, Nitrogen, Argon Hydrogen
Secondary Gases - Air, Nitrogen, Carbon Dioxide
WARNING
This unit not to be used with oxygen (O

).
6. Optional Two Stage Air Line Filter
The optional filter will remove moisture and con-
taminants from the air stream when using com-
pressed air. The filter is capable of filtering to at
least 5 microns.
