  • Page 4: Installation

    SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C 2. INSTALLATION SPARCIN 9 is ready for use after connection to electric power and compressed air or some technical gas for plasma cutting. SPARCIN 9C (with built-in compressor) is ready for use after connection to electric power.
  • Page 5: Operating Instructions

    SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C 3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Check that the machine has been properly connected to the power supply and gas, see chapter 2, installation. NOTE! The machine may only be used with 400V power supply! Connect the earth-lead to the front of the machine. Connect the earth clamp directly to the work piece.
  • Page 6 SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C Air plasma cutting Use the electrode for air as plasma generating gas. Gas plasma cutting Use the electrode for technical gas; nitrogen (N ), argon/hydrogen mix (Ar/H ) or nitrogen/hydrogen mix (N Use the nozzle marked 0,9, part no. 199060 for cutting plate thickness up to 6 mm, for thicker plates, use the nozzle marked 1,1, part no.
  • Page 7: General Information On Plasma Cutting

    SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C 4. GENERAL INFORMATION ON PLASMA CUTTING With exception of the systems that have built-in compressors (SPARCIN 9C), all SPT Plasmateknik AB manufactured plasma cutting systems with water cooled torch have full multi-gas capability. When using technical gases, a pressure regulator as opposed to a flow regulator must be fitted to the gas cylinder.
  • Page 8 SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C Copper/brass Copper and brass can depending on alloy be cut with air, nitrogen or a mixture of 10% hydrogen in nitrogen (NH10). When cutting with air, air electrode must be used. When cutting with nitrogen or NH10 air electrode as well as gas electrode may be used.
  • Page 9 SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C • Too high cutting speed. By slowing the cutting speed the angle deviation can be minimised. Inconsistent angle deviation • Worn or damaged consumables. Check the consumables and change if necessary. • The torch is not fitted straight in relation to the work piece. Check the torch position and adjust if necessary.
  • Page 10 SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C Convex kerf • Too much distance between nozzle and work piece, or too high cutting current. By first lowering the torch and then if necessary lowering the current the kerf can be straightened. Some combinations of plasma generating gas and material can more than others cause convex kerfs.

    SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C 5. ACCESSORIES FOR MANUAL PLASMA CUTTING There are a number of accessories available for SPARCIN and SPARCON cutting systems equipped with hand torch. Plasma gouging All SPARCIN and SPARCON systems, except SPARCIN 5/, have gouging capability. By fitting the torch with nozzle extension, gouging nozzle (2,2 mm for <80 A, 3,0 mm for >80A),...
  • Page 12: Changing Consumables

    SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C 6. CHANGING CONSUMABLES WARNING! THE MACHINE MUST ALWAYS BE SWITCHED OFF WHEN CHANGING CONSUMABLES! 1. After removing the protective cup, loosen the nozzle with the nozzle tool. All the consumables can now be removed. 2. Please observe carefully the correct assembly of the consumables.
  • Page 13: Maintenance

    SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C 7. MAINTENANCE Daily Inspect and, if necessary, change nozzle, electrode and electrode insulator. Empty and, if necessary, clean the moisture trap situated on the rear of the machine. This is easily done by pressing the bottom sealing of the glass cover while compressed air is connected, or completely unscrewing the cover and cleaning it from dirt.
  • Page 14: Trouble Shooting

    SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C 8. TROUBLE SHOOTING Thermal overload If the pump, fan (and compressor) are working but the green READY lamp is not lit, the thermal overload protection is active. Let the machine cool down while switched on until the lamp lights. Now the machine is in working order.
  • Page 15: Personal Protection

    SPARCIN 9 / SPARCIN 9C 9. PERSONAL PROTECTION Plasma cutting is, if correctly used, a safe, efficient and economically attractive method for cutting metals. However, like most industrial processes, it involves some risk factors. But they can be reduced - provided you are aware of them.
  • Page 16: Warranty

    Any warranty claim should be accompanied by proof of purchase. Coverage SPT will take responsibility to repair a machine to the state it was in before the fault occurred. The warranty covers spare parts and reimbursement for work carried out by an authorised service point.
  • Page 17 A modified product will be restored to the original state at the expense of the customer prior to any repair, as SPT can not be responsible for the function of its products otherwise. The remaining warranty period / spare parts guarantee Following the guarantee repair, the warranty period for the repaired or replacement product will be valid until the end of the original warranty period.
