Hobart AirForce 40i Plasma Cutter with Multi-Voltage Plug — Inverter, 120/240V, 14-40 Amp Output, Mo

Features + Benefits
12ft. XT40R torch – designed for increased comfort with an ergonomic trigger safety, extremely flexible cables, more efficient cooling and economical replacement XT series cutting tips for long life
Pilot Arc Controller allows you to cut expanded/perforated metals, as well as painted or coated surfaces, without retriggering the torch
Wind Tunnel Technology™ prevents abrasive dust and particles from damaging internal components
Fan-On-Demand™ Cooling system operates only when needed, reducing power consumption and contaminants drawn into the machine
Power factor correction (PFC) circuitry draws up to 30% less amperage for the same cutting range as compared to the competition
PFC expands operator's work area via extension cord, while minimizing nuisance circuit breaker trips caused by voltage drops
LVC™ line voltage compensation provides peak performance power under variable input voltage conditions (¯15%) for steady and cleaner-ending cuts
Internal gas/air filter and regulator controls amount of usage and flow of air or gas
Starts without high frequency, protecting the unit by not interfering with or damaging controls or computers
Diagnostic LED lights for quick troubleshooting of pressure, power and cup situations
MVP adapters allow connection to 120 or 240V receptacles without tools, just choose the adapter cord with the right plug that fits the receptacle and connect it to the power cord with the L6-30R twist lock
Postflow cooling circuit extends life of consumables and torch by cooling them with postflow air after trigger is released
Automatic gouging consumable detection adjusts gas pressure to optimize performance, eliminating the need for a manual regulator
Compatible with engine-driven welders, offering complete cutting capability when powered by an engine-driven welder/generator with a 240V receptacle of 8 kW or more
Hobart 5/3/1 industrial warranty — 5-year warranty on transformers, stabilizers and main rectifiers; 3-year warranty on generators, PC boards and drive systems; 1-year warranty on guns (MIG, Plasma and TIG torches)
