3.05 Input Power Cable Connections

The 75XL PLUS Power Supply operates on three phase,
380-415 VAC ± 10% 50/60 Hz input.

CAUTION

The primary power source, power cable, and plug
must all conform to local electric code and the rec-
ommended circuit protection and wiring require-
ments (refer to Appendix 1).

The Power Supply is supplied with a three-phase, four
conductor, input EMC power Cable attached. Connect
the supplied input EMC power cable to the customer's
power source per the following procedure:

NOTE

The input power cable must not be modified in any
way as filtering beads are installed onthe cable.

1.

Strip back the outer covering approximately 3
inches (76 mm) to expose the individual wires at
the free end of the cable.

2.

Cut back the insulation on the individual wires
approximately 1/8 - 3/16 inch (3-5 mm).

3.

Connect the ends of the individual wires a cus-
tomer supplied plug or main disconnect per the
following:

3.06 Gas Connections

A. Gas Requirements

WARNING

This unit not to be used with oxygen (O

2

).

Gases: Compressed Air or Nitrogen (N2) Only

Pressure: 60 - 75 psi (4.1 - 5.2 bar)

CAUTION

Maximum input gas pressure must not exceed 125
psi (8.6 bar)

Flow:

Cutting - 300 scfh standard cubic feet/hour(142 lpm)

Gouging - 300 scfh (142 lpm)

B. Checking Air Quality

To test the quality of air, place the RUN/SET/LATCH
switch to SET position, place a welding filter lens in front
of the torch and turn on the gas. Any oil or moisture in
the air will be visible on the lens. Do not initiate an arc!

CAUTION

The air supply must be free of moisture, and other
contaminants. Excessive moisture may cause
double-arcing, rapid tip wear, or even complete
torch failure. Contaminants may cause poor cut-
ting performance and rapid electrode wear.

C. Gas Connections

The gas supply is connected to the Pressure Regulator/
Filter Assembly installed on the rear of the unit. The con-
nection is the same for compressed air or high pressure
gas cylinders.

Connect the gas supply as illustrated. Typical fittings are
shown as examples. Other fittings may be used.

1. If an optional air line filter is to be installed, refer to

subsection D.

NOTE

Filtering is required when using air from a com-
pressor to ensure that moisture and debris from the
supply hose does not enter the torch. It is recom-
mended to order the optional
