3.26 Voltage Divider for iHC Torch Height Control
For best plasma cutting performance it is necessary to maintain a constant height (standoff) above the metal while cutting. Cutting
tables use a Torch Height Control (THC), also called a Z axis control, most of which use feedback from the arc voltage to control
the height. Several of these, including the iHC, part of the CNC Controller, come with a Voltage Divider Printed Circuit Board that
has to be installed inside the plasma power supply to divide the high arc voltage down to lower levels for use with control circuits.
There is a space for mounting the V-D Board located on the upper portion of an internal vertical panel near the rear of the power
supply. Predrilled holes for mounting the iHT V-D board as well as another popular height control are provided.
!
CAUTION
If using another board that doesn’t align with the existing holes, remove the panel if possible
before drilling. If not possible then every precaution must be taken to keep metal filings from
being deposited inside the power supply.
