5.2 System output wiring

Figure 5.2 F2600T2 Output wiring

Note：
1. The lifting motor should be connected to the input port on system, good for real-time
performance of plasma height control.
2. The arcing place is controlled by the arcing relay on FCB board, user must connect to open port of
matching relay according to different mode.
3. 7 core terminal board 24V power input by power switch, and it offers the power to lifting
motor.
4. Please use shield cable to collect arc, in order to decrease the interference that cause unstable arc-voltage
5. The arc cable and power cable of the power source, please use independent shield cable, to prevent the
interference from outside.

5.3 FCB1200 wiring instruction

FCB1200 wiring have different way to connect depends on different mode user needed, please
check the manual of FCB1200 for more details.
