3.1.3 Arc Start Console (ASC)
The Arc Start Console (ASC) should be mounted in a convenient location that is
away from other electronic control devices. The high voltage pulse generated inside
the unit may interfere with the operation of sensitive control electronics. The ASC is
usually mounted on the gantry of the cutting machine or on the cutting table. The
ASC is IP23 rated.
Secure the ASC to the mounting surface using four ¼" or M6 bolts. Refer to the
mounting pattern shown in Section 2.8.
3.1.4 Torch
The torch should be installed on the positioner of a height control system capable of
maintaining a cutting arc voltage within a maximum of 1 arc volt. The arc voltage
should be adjustable within a maximum of 1 arc volt increments. The positioner must
be rigid to ensure cut quality and a torch collision sensor is highly recommended.
Refer to the mounting pattern for the Torch Clamp shown in Section 2.9.
Ensure that the Quick-Disconnect Torch Head is kept free from dirt and debris when
not installed into a Quick-Disconnect Torch Base.
