Hey guys, just bought this cutter from you and also ordered a Miller 141 welder that should arrive this week:-)
I have a question on the plasma cutter. I have an older Craftsmen air compressor, electric model, it has enough CMF's for this cutter but I was wondering if this IR model would work, thinking about getting a new compressor.

I am also looking at the Hobart AF500i, and they look to be about the same price. Can you please provide some comparison / suggestions. Thank you.
1 Answer
The Miller Spectrum 375 X-TREME Plasma Cutter w/XT30 Torch 907529 and the Hobart AirForce 500i Plasma Cutter 500548 are very similar in there capabilities.Both have a rated cut of 3/8", both are dual voltage using the multi-voltage plug system, both are inverter based machines.. The Hobart comes from the Miller family and shares much of the Miller plasma technology.. The basic differences are size,(the Hobart has a larger case and it weighs 27lbs verses the Miller which weighs 19 lbs) and the plasma torches. The Miller uses the XT30 torch which is a heavier duty torch than the Hobart HP-50 torch. Also because of its smaller size the Miller comes with a protective carrying case which makes the Miller easier to transport

The Miller XT30 and XT30C are essentially the same torch.. The difference between the two models is the end of the torch where it connects to the machine. The XT30 connection fits only the Miller Spectrum 375 X-TREME and the XT30C fits only the standard Spectrum 375 .. Consumable parts are the same for both

March 14, 2013
the 375 needs 90psi @ 5.0 cfm, my portable job site compressor is rated 90psi @ 4.2 cfm. What happens when the compressor can't keep up with the airflow demand? Does the cutter not work? Does the quality of cut suffer? Will it damage the machine? Could I just wait for compressor to recharge then resume cutting?
2 Answers
If you try use the Miller Spectrum 375 X-TREME Plasma Cutter w/XT30 Torch 907529 with an undersized compressor the unit will start then sense the low flow and then turn off the arc.The pressure light on the front of the unit will light It will reset when the proper flow returns .Since the machine is protecting itself it will probably not cause any damage to the unit. This is not a good way to use this machine.. You will not be able to cut properly and you may experience some increased consumable wear.. We do not recommend using this machine in this manner
