Refer to the XPR Wireless Compliance Manual (80992C) for more information.
Torch mounting bracket requirements
Make sure to use a torch mounting bracket that obeys the requirements for XPR torches.
You must supply the torch mounting bracket for your cutting system. Choose one that does the following:
Holds a torch diameter that is 57.15 mm (2.25 inches)
Holds the torch perpendicular (at a 90° angle) to the workpiece (for non-bevel cutting)
Does not interfere with the torch lifter
The XPR torch mounting sleeve is larger than the torch mounting sleeve
for HPR
®
torches. Modification or replacement of previous mounting
hardware is necessary for XPR torches.
Mounting brackets are available from Hypertherm. Refer to Torch bracket
on page 419.
Torch lifter requirements
Use a torch lifter that has the correct weight capacity for XPR torches.
Choose a lifter that has a weight capacity of at least 11.3 kg (25 lb). This includes the weight of a torch
rotational sleeve, if used. Refer to your torch lifter instruction manual for more information.
CNC requirements for plasma cutting systems
There are specific CNC features that are necessary for integration with plasma cutting systems.
Remote on-off switch
The CNC must have a remote on-off switch. Refer to Install a remote on-off switch on page 201.
A feature of the control PCB is that it offers redundancy to one remote on-off switch.
A 24 VDC (500mA) and return (GND) from the CNC or controlling device to the expansion PCB are
necessary for redundant remote on-off for the expansion PCB and input to the control PCB. Make sure to
use a separate discrete cable between the redundant remote on-off input and main control PCB.
For information about how to do this, refer to Install a redundant remote
on-off switch on page 207.
