plasma gas Box (0558010156)

The PT-36 Torch is shipped with hose lengths that will not allow the Plasma Gas Box to be mounted more than
two meters (6.6 feet) away from the torch. Please make sure the routing of the standard hoses will allow them to
bend and connect properly before permanently mounting the Plasma Gas Box.
If additional distance between the torch and box is required the standard torch hose assembly will need exten-
sion hoses to create longer lengths. Extension hoses can be ordered to connect to the existing hose assembly.

Extension Hose, Shield Gas, 1M (3.3 ft.) ESAB P/N 0558008997
The longer hose lengths will require that the pierce time be increased and a longer lead-in time must be speci-
fied. This is due to the additional time required to purge the N2 start gas from the hose before the O2 cut gas
becomes affective. This condition occurs when cutting carbon steel with oxygen.
