4.3 Installation
4.3.1 Gas supply package installation (1000603700)
To install the system, carry out the following steps in the order specified:
Compressed air lines
Caution! Make sure the system is depressurised before you start the installation process.
1. Insert both L screw-in fittings into the maintenance unit.
2. Cut the supplied hose to the desired length and connect the hose to the plasma generator
in the screw-in fitting on the right side A hose length of ≤ 10 m is recommended.
3. Insert the hose from the gas supply into the screw-in fitting on the left side.
4. Mount the maintenance unit in an upright/vertical position.
Maintenance unit position
The maintenance unit must always be operated in an upright/vertical position, otherwise
faults may occur.

5. Unscrew the screw-in fitting mounted at the factory from the plasma generator.
6. Insert the preadjusted throttle into the plasma generator and connect the hose. The
throttle is suppliedin a preadjusted state with locking varnish.By changing the setscrew,
the pressure/flow ratio no longer corresponds to the characteristic in point 5.1.
7. Check all connections to ensure they are secure and do not leak before pressurising the
system.
The system is installed.
4.3.2 Installation emergency off switch for PS2000 (1000603600)
To install the system, carry out the following steps in the order specified:
1. If necessary, cut the cable to your required length and terminate the cable ends for the
wiring properly.
2. Insert the cable screw-in connection into the emergency stop switch, wire the cable in
accordance with the wiring diagram enclosed and secure the cable from sliding by
tightening the cable screw-in connection.

5Operation
5.1 Characteristic of the preadjusted throttle
1. Adjust the gas pressure by turning the maintenance unit on the pressure reducer.
2. Read off the set value on the display.
3. The corresponding flow results from the following characteristics. Please refer to the operating
instructions of the connected machines for the permissible operating parameters.
Characteristic validity range
The characteristic is only valid if the throttle is not moved and the hose length (Di=4 mm) is 1 m.
For a hose length that is 5m, the pressure must be increased by 10%. For a hose length that is 10
m, the pressure must be increased by 20%.
