1.1 Produktua gainditzeaview
The Hypertherm 011110 Filter Element is a critical replacement component designed for use within Hypertherm plasma cutting systems. This element is specifically engineered to fit into the 011109 filter housing, forming an integral part of the compressed air filtration system. Its primary function is to remove moisture, oil aerosols, and particulate matter from the compressed air supply, which is essential for the proper operation and longevity of plasma cutting torches and power supplies.
1.2 Aurreikusitako erabilera
This filter element is intended for professional use in industrial and workshop environments where Hypertherm plasma cutting equipment is utilized. It ensures a clean and dry air supply, which directly impacts cut quality, consumable life, and overall system reliability. Regular replacement of the filter element according to maintenance schedules is crucial for optimal performance.

2. Segurtasun informazioa
Always observe general safety precautions when working with industrial equipment and compressed air systems. Failure to follow safety guidelines can result in personal injury or equipment damage.
- Deskonektatu energia: Before attempting any installation or maintenance, ensure the plasma cutting system and its air compressor are completely powered off and disconnected from the electrical supply.
- Depressurize Air System: Always depressurize the compressed air system before opening any filter housings or air lines. Residual pressure can cause components to eject forcefully.
- Erabili Babes Pertsonaleko Ekipamendua (BPE): Use appropriate PPE, including safety glasses and gloves, to protect against potential hazards.
- Consult System Manual: Refer to the main Hypertherm plasma cutting system manual for specific safety instructions related to your equipment model.

3. Konfigurazioa eta instalazioa
Follow these steps to correctly install the Hypertherm 011110 Filter Element:
- Prestatu sistema: Ensure the plasma cutting system and air compressor are turned off and the air supply is depressurized as described in the Safety Information section.
- Iragazkiaren karkasa kokatu: Identify the Hypertherm 011109 filter housing within your plasma cutting system's air preparation unit.
- Etxebizitza Irekia: Carefully open the filter housing. This typically involves unscrewing a bowl or releasing a latch mechanism. Refer to your specific filter housing's instructions if unsure.
- Elementu zaharra kendu: Extract the used filter element from the housing. Note its orientation for correct installation of the new element.
- Clean Housing (Optional): Inspect the inside of the filter housing for any debris or residue. Clean if necessary with a lint-free cloth.
- Elementu berria instalatu: Insert the new Hypertherm 011110 Filter Element into the housing, ensuring it is seated correctly and oriented as the old element was. Do not force the element into place.
- Etxebizitza Segurua: Close and securely fasten the filter housing. Ensure any O-rings or seals are properly seated to prevent air leaks.
- Restore Air Pressure: Slowly restore air pressure to the system and check for any leaks around the filter housing. If leaks are detected, depressurize and re-seat the housing.
- Piztu: Once the air system is sealed and pressurized, you may power on the plasma cutting system.
4. Funtzionamendu-printzipioak
Once installed, the Hypertherm 011110 Filter Element functions passively as part of the air filtration system. Compressed air flows through the element, which traps contaminants such as moisture, oil, and solid particles. This ensures that only clean, dry air reaches the plasma torch, which is crucial for:
- Optimized Cut Quality: Contaminants in the air can lead to poor cut quality, dross, and inconsistent results.
- Extended Consumable Life: Clean air significantly extends the lifespan of plasma torch consumables, reducing operating costs.
- Sistemaren babesa: Prevents damage to sensitive internal components of the plasma power supply and torch from moisture and particulate matter.
No direct user operation is required for the filter element itself beyond proper installation and scheduled maintenance.

Regular maintenance of the filter element is vital for the performance and longevity of your plasma cutting system.
5.1 Replacement Schedule
The Hypertherm 011110 Filter Element is a consumable item and requires periodic replacement. The exact replacement interval depends on several factors:
- Erabilera-maiztasuna: Systems used daily will require more frequent replacement than those used occasionally.
- Airearen kalitatea: The quality of the incoming compressed air (e.g., presence of oil, high humidity) will affect filter life.
- Fabrikatzailearen gomendioak: Always refer to your Hypertherm plasma system's specific manual for recommended filter replacement intervals. A common recommendation is every 3-6 months or after a certain number of operating hours.
5.2 Signs of a Clogged Filter
Monitor your system for the following indicators that may suggest a clogged or failing filter element:
- Reduced air flow to the plasma torch.
- Noticeable decrease in cut quality (e.g., excessive dross, poor edge finish).
- Increased moisture or oil visible in the air lines or on consumables.
- Frequent draining of the filter housing's moisture trap (if applicable).
If any of these signs are observed, inspect and replace the filter element immediately.
6. Arazoak
If you experience issues related to air quality or system performance after installing a new filter element, consider the following:
- Aire ihesak: Check all connections around the filter housing and air lines for leaks. Even small leaks can compromise air pressure and filtration efficiency.
- Instalazio okerra: Ensure the filter element is seated correctly and the housing is properly sealed. Refer to Section 3.
- Other System Components: If air quality issues persist, the problem may lie with other components of the air preparation unit (e.g., regulator, coalescing filter, air dryer) or the air compressor itself.
- Zati okerra: Verify that the installed filter element is indeed the Hypertherm 011110 and is compatible with your 011109 filter housing.
For persistent issues, contact Hypertherm technical support or a qualified service technician.
