Falcon A1 Pro with A1P purifior

has anyone else run into the issue with the A1 pro and there AP1 purifier causing too much suction and pulling the camera down to where the laser head hits it while cutting? I dont have the issue while engraving because it only turns it on to level 1 but during cutting it auto goes to the highest and then causes way to much vacume lol and pulls the lid down till the point my laser head has got stuck and just banged itself repeatdly.

so just wondering if anyone else has had this and if they figured out a way to fix it? I can manually turn it done after the job starts but that really is a pain in the arse to do constantly.

A thought from someone whose laser and purifier hasn’t arrived yet…

Could you introduce a Y into the tubing between laser and purifier, and add a baffle that you can adjust to get the correct air flow? I’m thinking about stuff I’ve seen for wood stoves.

So the baffle would be used to -add air- to the vacuum stream between the purifier and the cutter, to reduce the vacuum ‘presented to’ the cutter.
