6. Install WMS Water Softener Kit in the line that feeds the inlet side of the DMC-3000. Mount the softener and bracket on

the power supply where the provided 2’ hose can reach to the DMC-3000. Mounting in another location is possible with

a customer provided hose. Below is typical customer added hose and installation.

7. Make sure that the hose going to the DMC-3000 is connected to the port on the WMS Water Softener marked “OUT” and

the incoming water supply connected to the port marked “IN”. Do not mount over any electronics or outlets in case of

leaks during operation or spills when changing the element at a later date.

3.17 DPC-3000 Gas Pressure Control Installation

The DPC-3000 Gas Control must be installed in a suitable location close to the Torch such as the gantry. The unit must be mounted

to a flat horizontal surface. If the Module is mounted to any support subject to vibration or motion, the installer must fasten the

module to the support securely.

The Module should be located as far away as possible from the Arc Starter due to possible electromagnetic interference. It is

acceptable to locate the control cable in the same track as the cables from the Arc Starter and away from torch leads.

The Module includes feet which lift the bottom panel off the mounting surface. Louvers on the back panel of the module must

remain unblocked, for the free passage of ventilating air.

The Module also comes with non metallic isolation grommets for mounting. These must be used in all four mount-
ing slots to raise the Module so there is no metal to metal contact between the Module and the mounting surface
in order to reduce the chance of EMI interference.
