Hypertherm Powermax 65 Operator's Manual

POWER SUPPLY SETUP
2-4 powermax 65/85 Operator Manual
aution:C Protect the circuit with appropriately sized time-delay (slow-
blow) fuses and a line-disconnect switch.
Position the power supply
Locate the power supply near an appropriate 200–480 volt power receptacle for CSA 1-phase
power supplies, 200–600 volt power receptacle for CSA 3-phase power supplies, or a 380/400
volt receptacle for 3-phase CE power supplies. The power supply has a 10-foot (3 m) power cord.
Allow at least 10 inches (0.25 m) of space around the power supply for proper ventilation.
The power supply is not suitable for use in rain or snow.
To avoid toppling, do not set the power supply on an incline greater than 10 degrees.
Prepare the electrical power
Hypertherm (designated HYP on the data plate) input current ratings are used to determine
conductor sizes for power connection and installation instructions. The HYP rating is determined
under maximum normal operating conditions and the higher HYP input current value should be
used for installation purposes.
The maximum output voltage will vary based on your input voltage and the circuit’s amperage.
Because the current draw varies during startup, slow-blow fuses are recommended as shown in
the charts below. Slow-blow fuses can withstand currents up to 10 times the rated value for short
periods of time.
