FEATURES
BENEFITS
Prevents abrasive dust and particles from damaging internal components.
Cooling system only operates when needed. In dirty or dusty environments, this feature reduces the
amount of airborne dust/dirt pulled through the unit.
Draws up to 30% less amperage for the same cutting range as compared to the competition. PFC expands
operators work area via extension cord, while minimizing nuisance circuit breaker trips caused by voltage drops.
Provides added protection during transportation. Standard air connection on back provides easy gas or air hookup.
Provides peak performance power under variable input voltage conditions (176–264 V) for steady and
cleaner ending cuts.
Will not interfere with or damage controls or computers.
Capable of cutting 3/8 to 5/8 in mild steel when powered by an engine-driven welder with a 240 V generator
power outlet of 8 kW or more.
No other manufacturer offers a better warranty than Hobart does. Power source is warranted for 3 years, parts and
labor. Original rectifier parts have a 5-year warranty and the ICE torches have a 1-year parts and labor warranty.
