Technology enhancementsHypertherm technology and quality drive superior performanceof Centricut consumables. Cut with confidence, it’s Hypertherm. Slows wearCoolFlow nozzle technology Maintains orifice shape and size Maximizes usage Reduces torch leaking Extends electrode life Extends nozzle life and improves cut qualitySilverLine electrode technologyThrough the use of solid state welding technology andoptimized coolant flow, SilverLine technology slows thewear of hafnium, the material which produces the plasmaarc, by more efficiently removing heat from the electrode.By maximizing the silver-hafnium interface and optimizing thegeometry of the silver, Centricut SilverLine electrodes canbe used 25 to 300% longer than other silver-copper andall-copper electrodes.Every plasma operator will tell you that the most commonnozzle failure is when the orifice goes out of round.Maintaining nozzle orifice shape and size directly impactsnozzle life and cut quality. CoolFlow technology utilizesimproved cooling features and optimizes gas flows topreserve orifice size and shape longer than any other nozzleavailable. O-ring placement on CoolFlow nozzles reducestorch leaking which can cause consumable and torch failure.Backed by Hypertherm technology, product quality and world-class customer support,Centricut plasma consumables deliver reliability to your process at a lower cost.iiwww.hypertherm.com/centricut/plasma

If you look closely, the Black wire from BOTH tiki torches are connected to the same (orange) wire and the Light Blue wire from BOTH tiki torches are connected to the same (dark blue) wire. When Daisy Chaining two or more tiki torches this wiring method must be followed. No more than 4 Tiki Torches are to be daisy chained together.

Plasma torches are used at the bottom of the gasifier to provide sufficient heat for the gasification to take place. The air flow inside the gasifier is controlled. A bed coke is created within the reactor using metallurgical coke (met coke) to absorb and retain the heat energy from the plasma torches and provide a 'skeleton' that supports
