Hobart AirForce 40i Plasma Cutter with 12ft Torch (500576)
Download Product Spec Sheet
The Hobart AirForce 40i Plasma Cutter with 12ft Torch (500576) is an economical plasma cutting system for all conductive metals. Inverter-based design and reliable technology pack a lot of performance into a very portable package. The Airforce 40i plasma cutting system is excellent for light and heavy industrial users. Automated operations are also well within its range. Unit is compatible with engine-driven welders when powered with a 240 V generator power outlet of 8 kW or more. The 40i is a multi-voltage (120V and 240V) unit with a built-in gas/air filter and regulator for extra protection.
Highlights:
• Capable of cutting 5/8 to 7/8 in. mild steel when powered on 240 V power.
• MVP Adaptors allow 120V or 240V operation with quick-change plugs.
• The XT40R Ergonomic Torch is designed for increased comfort, more efficient cooling and economical replacement cutting tips.
• Post-flow Air Cooling cools the torch and tip after cutting, extending life of replaceable tip and electrode.
• Fan-On-Demand runs only when needed reducing dust/debris pulled into unit.
• Wind Tunnel Technology prevents abrasive dust and particles from damaging internal components.
• Thermal Overload Protection is built to withstand tough working environments. Rated for 60% duty cycle at 40A output.
• Cable Management Strap secures torch, work cable and power cord to make transporting easy and convenient.
• Line Voltage Compensation (LVC) provides peak performance power under variable input voltage conditions (±15%) for steady and cleaner ending cuts.
• Power Factor Correction expands operator’s work area via extension cords while minimizing nuisance trips caused by voltage drops.
• High Frequency Starts protect unit by not interfering with or damaging controls or computers.
