Hi-throughput
“HX” version
The K2 Prime is available at:
the original 15A, 3000W rating, or
at a boosted 20A, 4000W rating (with the addition of factory-installed
KP5201A or field-installed KP5200A).
We call this higher-power unit the “HX version”. This HX version allows not only a
faster heat-up rate, but also boasts a second mold cooling blower. The combined
effect of those two features can save up to 20% fusion cycle time.
Additionally, the HX version includes the protective plate for bottom elements.
However, the electrical current drawn by the HX version is higher than the regular
version, and so the power line, outlet and breaker must be chosen accordingly.
Connection
The K2 Prime works on 220-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Note that the in-wall power line
and corresponding wall breakers or fuses must be designed to carry at least 15 A
for the regular version(20 A for the HX version), with GFCI protection.
While it is technically workable to use the instrument at 208 VAC (standard in
some areas), heat-up times will be longer than in the recommended voltage
range. Katanax offers step-up transformers that can overcome such local
limitations.
IMPORTANT
: This instrument is to be connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupt) breaker, which provides necessary protection to the fluxer
installation.
Questions ?
Should you have any question regarding the proper installation and start-up of
your instrument, please contact Katanax directly (see information on page 91) for
