Hypertherm HT4001 Plasma Arc Cutting System - Manual (Page 30)

SPECIFICATIONS
HT4001
Instruction Manual 2-3
Gas Console
This unit houses control components for plasma gas and injection water flow. The gas console interfaces with the
gas supplies, the RHF console, the motor valve console, the power supply and the torch.
Motor Valve Console
This unit houses a plasma gas metering valve and a preflow/operate solenoid valve. These valves allow the flow of
gases to be unaffected by the length of the torch leads. Plasma gas lines and an interface cable connect the motor
valve console to the gas console. The motor valve console also interfaces with the torch.
Note: The motor valve console must be mounted within 10 feet (3 m) of the torch.
Remote Voltage/Current (V/C) Control – Optional
The digital and programmable remotes provide accurate operator control of the arc voltage and current. High
intensity LED displays indicate the setpoints for volts and amperes prior to starting the arc. After the arc is initiated,
the displays automatically indicate the actual values of the voltage and current reached. The current remote does
not come with LED displays: a thumbwheel switch is provided to set current only. These units interface with the
power supply.
Digital Remote – Includes:
• Voltage and current displays and two potentiometers to select the desired values.
This unit is designed for use with guidance machinery that already includes plasma control switches.
Programmable Remote – Includes:
• Voltage and current displays.
No switches or potentiometers included. All functions controlled by the guidance machinery computer.
Current Remote – Used with HT4001 systems without THC. Includes:
• Thumbwheel switch for setting cutting current.
Note: See IM191 RCC Installation for more information on the Current Remote.
