PlasmaC Voltage Divider

Hi,

i'm looking for a good plasmacutter that works with plasmac.

What if the plasmacutter doesn't have an internal voltage divider ? Then the THCAD 300 would be good, but its out of stock everywhere. What is the alternative if I want to use THAD 5 oder 10 ? 

To buy a Proma voltage-divider or is there another professional-looking alternative ?
And maybe you can recommend a plasmacutter for plasmaC ?

Thanks.

You can use a THCAD2 or  THCAD-10 with a series resistor
or resistors, for example  2.4M will give a 250V full scale range.

Mesa has a set of three .4W  1M .1% resistors for this purpose, when used
with a THCAD-10  or a THCAD2 set for 10V you get:

1 = 110V full scale
2 in series  210V full scale
3 in series  310V full scale

Note that lower voltage ranges improve resolution so the 210 V range is fine for most
plasma systems as it will accept continuous inputs over 1000V without damage
and voltages over 200V are not typically useful when cutting.

Thanks a lot for your replies.

The stahlwerk-plasmacutters look good.
 
I already have a THCAD10 that I use for my hypertherm powermax 1000g3, but the cut quality on the hyptherm is not the best because there is a thermal dynamics-torch mounted on the machine and it doesn't cut without an angle at 10mm steel (2mm bevel to the other side). I already changed most of the parts exept the starter cartrigde, and if I can't get it to work properly I need to buy another plasma-machine. 

So I could change the Plasmacutter and still use the THCAD-10 if I add series resistors.
Maybe you can explain which exact resistor(s) I need and how exactly the resistors should be added to the plasma-cutter ? I
Somewhere I read that the THCAD should not be placed inside the controller-box ? Is that right ? So where should I put the THCAD 10 and the resistors ? 

Thanks

The resistor(s) go in series with the plasma voltage  to the negative THCAD input
Safety wise the resistors should be in the plasma source itself.

Thanks.

So I could open the Plasma source, cut the cable behind the THC-plug and solder 2 x 1MegaOhm in series of the negative cable and put a shrink tubing over the 2 resistors ?

Is there an alternative to the 1MegaOhm-resistor ? I ask because in the mesanet-store it shows me over 200$ shipping-cost for the 3 resistors and there is an error when the website calculates shipping costs to germany.
