gas inlet pressures must be between 105 - 135 psi (7.2 - 9.2 bar) for all material thickness.

flowrates may increase piercing capability on the thicker materials listed above.
However, increasing the preflow flowrates too much may affect plasma starting reliability (misfiring).
** Torch standoff tolerances are ± 0.005 inch (± 0.125 mm). When using a THC, tolerances are ± 1 volt.
If problems occur with the cutting process, and the flowrates are suspect, refer to Section 5, Maintenance, Gas System Back
Pressure Checks.
