EXPLOSION HAZARD
H35 is a combustible gas and can be an explosion hazard. Keep open flames away from the gas
cylinders and gas hoses.
Argon-Hydrogen (H35)
The customer must provide a regulated H35 (35 %hydrogen and 65 % argon) supply at a pressure of 120 psi
(8.2 bar) to the gas console at 99.995 % purity, and at a flowrate of 85 scfh (2407 l/hr). Bottled liquid gas is
recommended. Connect the H35 supply with a 3/8-inch ID hose to the H35 input adapter (1/4 NPT, left handed ‘B’,
male) on the gas console.
Power Supply Placement
Place the power supply with the attached automatic gas console according to the criteria below and the dimensions
called out in Figure 3-1.
Note: The units may be moved by forklift, if the forks are long enough to extend more than half way the length of
the base of the power supply. Care should be used when lifting with the forks so that the underside of the
power supply is not damaged.
• The area must have proper ventilation, be clean and free of excessive moisture. Allow room for
accessing the sides of the power supply for servicing. The air flow for power supply cooling must not
blocked in any way. Air is drawn in through the front and is exhausted through the rear of the unit by fans.
Do not place any filter device over the air intake locations which reduces cooling efficiency and VOIDS
