“Exceeding Customer Expectations Through Performance Excellence"

Valued Thermadyne Customer,

In order to improve the excessive condensation of water that we have seen on the DRAG-GUN PLUS systems the

filter on the back has been changed to a Dual Stage La-Man filter (part # 9-0397)

A similar filter has been successfully used on the PakMaster and CutMaster lines for several years. This filter contains

replicable elements, 9-1021 first stage and 9-1022 second stage. This will allow elements to be replaced, which will

remove a higher percentage of humidity from the air.

Note: Even though this is a better solution it is not a 100% in high humidity environments, this filter element

will saturate causing one of two things to happen: First off the water will pass through the filter; secondly air will be

restricted from getting to the torch. If excessive water passes through your filter you will know that is time to replace the

elements.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
