torch relay ?'s

permalink

Hello all,

I have recently upgraded from a toshiba board to the gecko G540 and have everything for the motors and gantry on the way and understand that fine but i am not quite sure what relay i will need to fire the plasma torch. the torch uses a simple switch to close a circuit but do i power the relay with the 48v power supply or is there a low voltage source on the gecko drive better suited to fire the torch relay. what size relays would you recommend in either scenario and if you have a source to purchase the correct relay from that would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Chris

Thanks!
