OVERVIEW

Thermal Dynamics 9-4936: 100' RAS to Earth Ground Wire

The Thermal Dynamics 9-4936 is a specialized 100-foot ground wire assembly designed specifically for use with Thermal Dynamics automated plasma cutting systems equipped with a Remote Arc Starter (RAS). In high-precision industrial environments, proper grounding is not merely a safety requirement but a functional necessity. This cable serves as the critical link between the RAS unit and the facility's earth ground rod or bus bar.

Automated plasma systems, particularly those utilizing high-frequency arc starting, generate significant amounts of Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). Without a dedicated and high-quality ground path, this electrical noise can feed back into the system, causing erratic behavior in CNC controllers, height control sensors, and other sensitive electronics. The 9-4936 provides a robust, low-resistance path to dissipate this noise effectively, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the cutting process.

Constructed with durable, industrial-grade insulation, this wire is built to withstand the harsh conditions typical of metal fabrication shops, including exposure to dust, minor abrasion, and movement. The 100-foot length offers ample reach for large gantry systems or complex shop layouts where the earth ground point may be distant from the cutting table. Using genuine OEM parts like the 9-4936 ensures that the gauge and termination quality meet the specific engineering requirements of Thermal Dynamics power sources, safeguarding your equipment investment.

FAQ

It connects the Remote Arc Starter (RAS) to a true earth ground to drain electrical noise and ensure safety.

The wire is 100 feet long, providing ample reach for most industrial installations.

It is highly recommended to use the OEM specified wire to ensure proper gauge and insulation for high-frequency noise mitigation.

Proper grounding prevents high-frequency interference from disrupting CNC controls and height sensors.

It is designed for systems utilizing a Remote Arc Starter (RAS). Check your system manual for part number 9-4936 confirmation.

No, this is a separate ground for the equipment chassis/RAS, not the work return lead attached to the metal being cut.

This is a genuine Thermal Dynamics (ESAB) product.

Yes, it typically comes with the necessary terminals for connection to the RAS and ground point.
