Table 13 – Recommendations for where to position system components
* The same recommendations are applicable for mezzanine locations.
Length requirements for hoses, cables, and leads
The distances between the plasma power supply, gas connect console, torch connect console,
torch, and cutting table are limited by the lengths of the interconnect hoses, cables, and leads that
connect them.
Table 14 – Length ranges for interconnect hoses, cables, and leads
* Refer to Recommended configuration with the Core gas connect console on page 58 and Recommended
configuration with the VWI or OptiMix gas connect console on page 59 for visual distance requirements.
For a complete list of hoses, cables, and leads refer to Parts List on
page 361.
Make sure to install hoses, cables, and leads that are the correct length.
Hoses, cables, or leads that are too short can cause restriction of mechanical movement.
Cables and leads that are too long can cause electromagnetic interference (EMI).
EMI can have a negative effect on cut quality.
Contact your cutting machine supplier for recommendations about the best lead lengths for your
cutting system.
