Item Details

  • The Hypertherm part number 20679 (020679) is a precision-engineered gas distributor swirl ring designed for high-amperage mechanized plasma arc cutting systems. It is specifically optimized for the HySpeed HT2000 and HT2000LHF dual-gas liquid-cooled plasma systems to support 200-amp air plasma cutting operations in automated CNC environments.

Features

  • LongLife Technology: Engineered fluid dynamics establish a uniform, high-velocity swirl pattern around the cathode to center the arc.
  • Centrifugal Arc Stabilization: Angled micro-orifices direct gas into a high-speed vortex to constrict the arc core for a denser column.
  • Structural Dielectric Barrier: Serves as an insulator between the negatively charged electrode and the neutral/positively charged nozzle to prevent internal arcing.
  • Arc Centering: Aligns the high-temperature arc directly through the nozzle orifice to minimize electrode erosion.
  • Wear Reduction: Minimizes hafnium pit wear during high-amperage pilot arc initialization.
  • Kerf Width Control: Produces a narrow kerf width to reduce raw material waste and top-edge rounding.
  • High-Frequency (HF) Resistance: Optimized to withstand high-frequency starter voltages from consoles located up to 200 feet (60 meters) away.
  • Gas Injection Method: Radially distributed micro-orifices designed for high-velocity vortex induction.
