Overview of cutting system coolant
The cutting system ships without coolant in the reservoir. Before you operate the cutting system, you must fill it with coolant.
The coolant capacity for the plasma cutting system is between 22.7 liters – 45.4 liters (6 U.S. gallons – 12 U.S. gallons). The reservoir in the cooler can contain a maximum of 15.1 liters (4 U.S. gallons). But when the plasma cutting system is fully installed, it can contain between 22.7 liters – 45.4 liters (6 U.S. gallons – 12 U.S. gallons).
More coolant is necessary for a cutting system with long leads than for a cutting system with short leads.
Speak to your cutting machine supplier to send an order for more coolant. For information about how to calculate the approximate total volume of coolant for your cutting system, refer to Calculations for total coolant volume estimates.
The cutting system ships with the coolant filter and coolant-pump screen installed. Additional coolant filters and screens are available. Refer to Cooler parts.
For information about how to install a replacement coolant filter or coolant-pump screen, refer to the XPR Preventative Maintenance Program (PMP) Instruction Manual (809490).
