INTRODUCTION
The instructions in this manual will enable a qualified electronics technician to convert the 208/240/480 volt Powermax900 or 208/240/480 volt Powermax800 power supply into a 600 volt power supply. The kit (128312) contains a transformer and case, wheels, castors, and 2 line cords ­one to hook up to a line disconnect box or 3-phase plug, and a shorter cord to connect from the transformer case to the link box at the rear of the Powermax - See Figure 2-1. See also Section 3 for a list of parts for the 600 volt conversion kit.
When installation is complete, refer to the Operator Manual for setup, operating instructions and maintenance of the Powermax system.

600V INSTALLATION
WARNING
INSTALLATION MUST BE PERFORMED ONLY BY HYPERTHERM DISTRIBUTORS OR
QUALIFIED ELECTRONICS TECHNICIANS!!
SHOCK HAZARD: Always turn off power, unplug cord from wall and wait 5 minutes before removing any cover of the power supply! If power unit is directly connected to a line disconnect box, place line disconnect switch to OFF position. Lock out and tag out switch before proceeding!
See Section 3 for a parts list of the 128312 Powermax 600V conversion kit.
Note: All graphics and text in this document refer to the Powermax900. Unless otherwise noted, all instructions apply to either the Powermax800 or Powermax900.
INSTALLATION
The installation of the 600V kit to the 208/240/480V Powermax900 involves 6 basic steps:
1. Installation of wheels and casters to the transformer case.
2. Attaching the 600V power supply bracket to the Powermax900 chassis.
3. Attaching the 600V case assembly to the Powermax900 chassis.
4. Switching the power supply voltage configuration to 480V.
5. Hooking up the three-phase transformer secondary power cord from the 600V
transformer case assembly to the Powermax900.
6. Choosing the plug, power cord and line disconnect box fuse.
WARNING
THE 208/240/480V POWERMAX900 POWER SUPPLY IS SET UP TO OPERATE AT 240V WITH A SINGLE-PHASE INPUT. WHEN CONVERTED TO A 600V POWER SUPPLY, THE VOLT­AGE CONFIGURATION IN THE POWER SUPPLY MUST BE SWITCHED TO 480V, AND THE POWER CORD MUST BE HOOKED UP FOR THREE-PHASE OPERATION. See pages 2-9 to 2-10.

CHOOSING PLUG, POWER CORD AND LINE DISCONNECT BOX FUSE
Power Cord Plug
The 600V Powermax900 kit is shipped with a three-phase power cord and no plug. The user
must obtain a plug that is certified by national or local electrical codes. The plug should be connected to the power cord by a licensed electrician.
Power Cord - 600V
If the three-phase power cord length needs to be changed, use the table below to choose the proper gauge size for the appropriate length. Use a 4-conductor SO type cord for three-phase power supplies. The cord should be installed only by a licensed electrician.
Input Input Recommended Power Cord Gauge Size (AWG) Voltage Current to 10 ft 10 – 25 ft 25 – 50 ft 50 – 100 ft 100 –150 ft
600 VAC 8 amps 12 12 12 12 10
Line Voltage Disconnect Box and Fuse
Use a line disconnect box for each power supply. This disconnect box allows the operator to turn the power supply off quickly in an emergency situation. The switch should be located on a wall near the power supply, and should be easily accessible to the operator. The interrupt level of the switch must be equal to or exceed the continuous rating of the fuses. Use slow-blow fuses according to the power requirements listed below.
