Site preparation Grounding The printer must be connected to a good quality, dedicated ground line in order to avoid electrical risk. Please note your obligation to comply with the National Electrotechnical Code (NEC) in the county of installation. The following grounding tasks must be fulfilled to meet the site preparation requirements: ● Grounding wires should be insulated and at least equal in size to the phase conductors. ● Ground impedance must be less than 0.5 Ω. ● The installation of a single point and dedicated ground. ● Power stabilizer equipment that is supplied by three uninterrupted phase wires and one uninterrupted copper ground wire from the main building service panel. These should run in the same conduit and should be at least equal in size to the phase wires. Air supply requirements (pneumatic spindle) Air pressure supply The pneumatic spindle requires an air compressor or pressurized air line that must be provided by the customer. TIP: HP recommends that you use an air compressor with a pressure gauge that measures in bars.

Grounding
The printer must be connected to a good quality, dedicated ground line in order to avoid electrical risk.
Please note your obligation to comply with the National Electrotechnical Code (NEC) in the county of
installation.
The following grounding tasks must be fulfilled to meet the site preparation requirements:
Grounding wires should be insulated and at least equal in size to the phase conductors.
Ground impedance must be less than 0.5
.
The installation of a single point and dedicated ground.
Power stabilizer equipment that is supplied by three uninterrupted phase wires and one
uninterrupted copper ground wire from the main building service panel. These should run in the
same conduit and should be at least equal in size to the phase wires.
Air supply requirements (pneumatic spindle)
Air pressure supply
The pneumatic spindle requires an air compressor or pressurized air line that must be provided by the
customer.
TIP:
HP recommends that you use an air compressor with a pressure gauge that measures in bars.
