Using High Pressure Air Cylinders
When using high pressure air cylinders as the air
supply:
1. Refer to the manufacturer’s specifications
for installation and maintenance proce-
dures for high pressure regulators.
2. Examine the cylinder valves to be sure
they are clean and free of oil, grease or any
foreign material. Briefly open each cylin-
der valve to blow out any dust which may
be present.
3. The cylinder must be equipped with an
adjustable high - pressure regulator capable
of outlet pressures up to 100 psi (6.9 bar)
maximum and flows of at least 300 scfh
(141.5 lpm).
4. Connect supply hose to the cylinder.
NOTE
Pressure should be set at 100 psi (6.9 bar) at the
high pressure cylinder regulator.
Supply hose must be at least 1/4 inch (6 mm)
I.D.
For a secure seal, apply thread sealant to the
fitting threads, according to manufacturer's
instructions. Do Not use Teflon tape as a thread
sealer, as small particles of the tape may break
off and block the small air passages in the torch.
Installing Optional Two - Stage Air Filter Kit
This optional two - stage air line filter is also
for use on compressed air shop systems. Filter
removes moisture and contaminants to at least 5
microns.
Connect the air supply as follows:
1. Attach the Two Stage Filter bracket to the
back of the power supply per instructions
supplied with the filter assembly.
NOTE
For a secure seal, apply thread sealant to the fit-
ting threads according to manufacturer's instruc-
tions. Do Not use Teflon tape as a thread sealer
as small particles of the tape may break off and
block the small air passages in the torch.
2. Connect the two stage filter outlet hose to
the inlet port of the Regulator / Filter As-
sembly.
3. Use customer - supplied fittings to connect
the air line to the Filter. A 1/4 NPT to 1/4"
hose barbed fitting is shown as an example.
