SPECIFICATIONS
General
MAX200s are normally shipped from the factory (configured for mild steel cutting) with air supplied to both the
plasma and shield gas inlets from a single pressure/filter regulator. The regulator ensures that the correct air
pressure is supplied to the system at the proper quality.
For better cut quality on metals such as stainless steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous materials, use either
nitrogen or argon/hydrogen (Hypertherm recommends a mixture of 35% hydrogen and 65% argon) as the plasma
gas. When cutting mild steel, use oxygen as the plasma gas. Nitrogen, air and carbon dioxide are the shield gases.
Hypertherm offers two hand torches for plasma cutting: the PAC200T (90°) cutting trigger torch, and the optional
PAC200T (65°) cutting trigger torch (refer to Appendix D). In addition to cutting, the MAX200 is also a plasma arc
gouging system when used with the PAC200E (65°) gouging trigger torch.
An EMI filter, standard with all 400V CE power supplies (073200 and 073213 ), meets the CE requirement for
filtering incoming power. Refer to Appendix E to connect incoming power to the filter and for part numbers specific
to the CE power supplies.
