The all outputs are at normally low, 15V level during in active and drive up to 15mA.. These
outputs can directly drive LED or Opto Coupler. Touch output can be adjusted internal
trimpot as a minimum height. It allows NULLING the height, if such feature required.
The diecast box must be grounded. Usually the sensor is bolted to the housing of torch lifter
and must be connected via thick wire 10mm² to System Ground to have a sufficient ground
connection. Use STAR type grounding.

Description:

SENSOR RING:
The metal sensor ring is connected to the CAP04 via a 90
cm long 75 ohms low capacitance coaxial cable. There is
a 2 size for Sensor Ring. The Plasma Ring ID is 34 mm
and OD is 47 mm. Sensing height of the ring should be
between 1,5 to 10 mm above the plate. The Fuel Ring ID
is 50 mm and OD is 69 mm . Sensing height of the oxy
ring should be between 7 to 35 mm above the plate The
ring must be insulated from all conductive parts of the
cutting torch.
ELECTRONICS:
The connection of supply and outputs to the CAP04 is via
6 core screened cable. Connector can accept cable up to
6.5 mm OD diameter. The supply is nominal 24VDC and
the consumption current is less than 150mA.
Do not use same power supply with motors.

  • Page 1 CONTROL KNOB Description: SENSOR RING: CAP 04 The metal sensor ring is connected to the CAP04 via a 90 CAPACITIVE HEIGHT CONTROLLER cm long 75 ohms low capacitance coaxial cable. There is 6 PIN a 2 size for Sensor Ring. The Plasma Ring ID is 34 mm INTERFACE and OD is 47 mm.
  • Page 2 Remove the front panel. Use plastic screw driver. Gently adjust of the internal coil of CAP04 sensor and observe down output is activated in your HOME position (or sufficiently high above the plate.) If DOWN OUTPUT is activated instead of UP readjust the core of the coil.
  • Page 3 During thick plate cutting, dross may touch the sensor ring and the torch head lifted. To avoid this situation correct your cutting parameters for less dross. CAP04 can be used with voltage controlled Height Control System. The two systems are OR’ed.
  • Page 4 Simplified typical connection of CAP04 sensor is shown below. We advise that using H-Bridge for driving the motor is cost effective. Agelkom H-Bridge-9 Board now available. MANUAL UP/DOWN SW 1 K resistor SENSOR Auto / Manual SW DOWN SENSOR POWER +24VDC...
  • Page 5 Internal Coil Adjustment: Mount CAP04 and Sensor Head with Sensor Ring to your machine. Keep Sensor Ring to Working Plate distance at maximum (at least 10cm). Important: Do not turn fully CW or CCW and do not apply force to the CORE of the internal coil.
