Power Supply Installation
The ProLine power supply should be lifted by a forklift or pallet jack. In order to prevent
damaging the power supply, the forks should be of adequate length to protrude on the far
side of the power supply. The proper location of the power supply will provide
dependable service and reduce periodic maintenance time. Choose a location that will
provide unrestricted air movement into and out of the power supply. Maintain
at least 24
inches
of space on
all
sides of the unit. The location should subject the power supply to
the least amount of dust, dirt, moisture, and corrosive vapors. The surface on which the
power supply is located should have a grade of no greater than 10º to eliminate the risk of
toppling over. The power supply must be cleaned as often as necessary to prevent the
accumulation of metallic dust inside the unit. See Figure 2-1 for power supply
dimensions.
Remote High Frequency Console Installation
The Remote High Frequency (RHF) Console should be mounted in a convenient location
that is away from other electronic control devices. The high voltage, high frequency
signal generated inside the unit can interfere with the operation of certain control
systems. The RHF console is usually mounted on the gantry of the cutting machine or on
the cutting table. See Figure 2-2 for RHF console mounting dimensions.
Torch Installation
The ProLine 2200 torch must be installed on the positioner of an arc voltage control
capable of maintaining the cutting arc voltage within 1 arc volt. The arc voltage must be
adjustable in 1 arc volt increments. The positioner must be rigid to ensure cut quality and
a torch collision sensor is highly recommended. See Figure 2-3 for torch mounting
dimensions.
Primary Power Connection
** Before connecting primary power, check the data plate to verify the voltage
required by the ProLine power supply **
A primary disconnect switch, switching all ungrounded supply conductors, should be
provided for each ProLine power supply. The disconnect switch should be located as
close as possible to the power supply so it can be turned off quickly in case of an
emergency.
The disconnect switch should be equipped with time delay fuses only
.
The magnetic inrush current of the power supply will cause fast acting fuses to blow.
The disconnect switch should be sized according to local and national codes. The rating
must meet or exceed the continuous rating of the fuses used. See the following chart for
recommended fuse sizes:
