720

Pressure out (P21) is more than one of the pressures on the inlet side of the mixer (P10 – P12) by 0.069 bar (1 psi) or more. (OptiMix only)

When this occurs, the mixer decreases flow to prevent backflow, which can have an effect on cut quality.

  4. Increase the N2, Ar, and H2 pressure during test cutflow to be in the permitted range.
  5. Make sure that you have the most recent XPR firmware.
