DC current to extend the life of the nozzle and electrode. The HD3070 system consists of a power supply, remote high frequency (RHF) console, gas console, off-valve assembly and torch. Optional units include a timer-counter and a remote current control.
MULTI-TORCH SYSTEMS If more than one torch is required, increase the quantity of each component by the number of torches to be used. To specify the correct components for each application, follow the guidelines in this section. HD3070 w/Automatic Gas Console...
LAYOUT OF CUTTING MACHINE AND HD-3070 SYSTEM When configuring an HD3070 system(s), it is important to know where each major compo- nent will be placed. This will vary with the cutting machine manufacturer and with the particu- lar installation. After the location of the major components has been determined, the inter- connecting leads and cable lengths can be specified.
The figure below represents an HD3070 plasma system with automatic gas console mounted in a robotic environment. A complete robotic system is also represented in block diagram form on page 1-7. See pages 1-20 and 1-21 for representations of an HD3070 plasma system with automatic gas console mounted on an X-Y cutting table.
SYSTEM ORDERING FOR HD3070 w/AUTOMATIC GAS CONSOLE - ROBOTIC APPLICATIONS Special numbers have been established for ordering an entire HD3070 system. Under these numbers, all cables, hoses and leads are at fixed lengths. Refer to the list below and Figure 1-3 on the following page for clarification of the system.

GAS CONSOLE SPECIFY THE POWER SUPPLY The HD3070 power supply houses a 100-amp, 15kw chopper power supply which produces a constant current DC output variable from 15 to 100 amps. It contains a microprocessor control PC board which regulates all of the plasma system functions: start sequence, machine interface functions, gas and cut parameters, and off sequence.

SPECIFY THE TORCH CONFIGURATION The torches for the HD3070 system are the PAC184 and PAC186. Hypertherm does not provide a torch mounting bracket for the torches. Precision and robotic cutting machines have their own mounting brackets that have proven to be adequate for the PAC184 and PAC186 torches. A variety of torch configurations are available due to the interchangeability of the torch head, quick disconnect assemblies and torch mounting sleeves.
