3.20 Complete the Installation 1. Remove the cap from the coolant tank. Fill the coolant tank to the level shown, with Thermal Dynamics coolant. The coolant level is visible through the translucent coolant tank. The amount of coolant required varies with torch leads length.
Page 64
NOTE Depending on the length of the torch leads, the system may require more coolant after turning the system ON for the first time. a. Place the ON/OFF Switch to ON. b. After about 30 seconds the system may shut down if the leads are not full of coolant. c.
SECTION 4: OPERATION 4.01 Power Supply Control Panel Status Indicator AC Indicator Gas Indicator Temp Indicator DC Indicator Art # A-04862 AC Power Indicator Indicates AC power is being supplied to the system when the ON/OFF switch is in ON position. When switch is first set to ON, the indicator will blink, indicating gas purge at power on.
4.02 Start-Up Sequence 1. Connect system to primary input power. 2. Turn ON/OFF switch to ON (up) position. AC Indicator turns ON. POWER Art # A-04812 3. Check the AC indicator. If indicator does not light, reverse two phases of primary input power cable. If indicator is ON, system is ready to operate (pending fault checks by internal circuitry).

4.04 Sequence Of Operation 1. Set the Plasma Power Supply Enable / Disable switch to Disable. DANGER Alway shut off input power to the system before changing or inspecting torch parts. a. Change the torch parts if necessary. b. Set the Plasma Power Supply Enable / Disable switch (on the Gas Control Module) to Enable. The Module performs purges of 15 seconds, 11 seconds, and another 11 seconds.
Cut Quality Cut quality requirements differ depending on application. For instance, nitride build-up and bevel angle may be major factors when the surface will be welded after cutting. Dross-free cutting is important when finish cut quality is desired to avoid a secondary cleaning operation. Cut quality will vary on different materials and thicknesses. Kerf Width Cut Surface Bevel Angle...
Direction of Cut The plasma gas stream swirls as it leaves the torch to maintain a smooth column of gas. This swirl effect results in one side of a cut being more square than the other. Viewed along the direction of travel, the right side of the cut is more square than the left.
3. Oxygen (O ) Plasma • Oxygen is recommended for cutting ferrous materials. • Provides faster cutting speeds. • Provides very smooth finishes and minimizes nitride build-up on cut surface (nitride build-up can cause difficulties in producing high quality welds if not removed). 4.

2, Remove the Removal Tool from the Cartridge and install the assembled Cartridge onto the Torch Head. CAUTION The cartridge assembly must cover the O-Ring on the torch head. Do not force the cartridge if it will not tighten fully. Remove the cartridge assembly and gently clean the threads on the torch head with a wire brush.
7.05 Coolant Leak Trouble-Shooting Never operate the system if coolant leaks from the torch. A steady drip indicates that torch parts are damaged or installed improperly. Operating the system in this condition can damage the torch head. Refer to the following chart for guidance on coolant leakage from the torch head.

CNC functions. CNC I/O circuits provide at least 1000V galvanic isolation from the plasma power supply. While the CNC circuits are isolated from the power supply, many of the signal returns on J15 and TB1 & 2 are common to each other. J15 pins 1, 4, 5 & 10 and TB1-1, 5, 7, 9, and TB2-1 & 3 are all common. J15 pin 12 and TB2-10 are also connected to the others when SW6 (OK to Move select) is set for voltage.
CNC Input / Output Descriptions E-Stop input— Requires closed connection rated for 35ma. @ 20VDC for unit to operate. Factory installed jumper between TB1-1&2 must be removing when connecting user supplied E-Stop circuit. Start/Stop input—Switch (momentary or sustained) rating 35ma. @ 20 VDC Start / Stop circuit configurations.
