(Read the manual carefully before installation, operation and maintenace) Safety Depends on You WEIRO are welding and cutting equipment is designed and built with safety in mind. However, your overall safety can be increased by proper installation... and thoughtful operation in your part. DO NOT INSTALL, OPERATE OR REPAIR THIS EQUIPMENT WITHOUT READING THIS MANUAL AND THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CONTAINED THROUGHOUT.
Principle & Technical data WP 120A Block diagram of principle 3~380V/50Hz Rectifier Rectifier & Inverter Transformer Filter Control circuit High frequency arc start Figure 1: Block diagram of principle This series of cutting machines applies IGBT Middle Frequency inverter technology. Line frequency 3-phase input volt are rectified by rectifier, inverted into MF AC by IGBT components, insulated by MF transformer, rectified and filtered by MF rectifier, then outputs DC power suitable for cutting.

Features & Applications This series inverter air plasma cutting machines, which are new-designed for metal processing, apply IGBT as well as PWM (Pulse width Modulation) soft switch technology. This series cutting machines can cut all types of metal materials, especially for high alloy steel and non-ferrous metals that can not be cut by using flame cutting machine.
Installation Guide 1. Pre-installation 1.1 Installation Environment The WP series is designed for use in adverse environments. Examples of environments with increased adverse conditions are: In locations in which freedom of movement is restricted, so that the operator is forced to perform the work in a cramped (kneeling, sitting or lying) position with physical contact with conductive parts;...

1.3 Power Source Connections Warning Thermal Arc advises that this equipment be electrically connected by a qualified electrician. ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill; SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE is present after removal of input power. DO NOT TOUCH live electrical parts. SHUT DOWN welding power source, disconnect input power employing lockout/tagging procedures.
4. Installation: This series of cutter is small, light and portable. They will be more convenient when being placed on the trolleys. Ensure the location where the cutter is to be placed is even. ACUT series of cutters wire diagram as Figure 5: Figure 4: Connection Chart for WP series 1.
Operating Instruction 1. Functional introduction 1.1 Front panel illustration and parts number reference Figure 5: Front panel 1. “Gas test / Cutting” switch Switch to “Gas test”, check if gas flow is normal; to “cutting” to perform air plasma cutting. 2.

1.2 Rear panel illustration and parts number reference Figure 6: Rear panel 1. Circuit breaker The function of circuit breaker is to protect cutting machine by automatic trip to turn-off power supply while the machine is overloaded or in failure. Normally, the circuit breaker flipped to upward means power-on.

Cool down the heat components in the cutting machine. 2. Operating procedure 2.1 After going through periodical check process, power on the cutting machine, then working indicator will light up and cooling fan will spin. 2.2 Flip the “Gas test/Cutting” switch to “Gas test”. The gas valve in the machine will turn on and let gas flow up to one minute to remove condensed water drops accumulating in the torch.
Repair & Maintenance WARNING: Have a qualified electrician do the maintenance and trouble shooting work. Turn the input power off, using the disconnect switch at the fuse box before working inside the machine. 1. Attentions: 1. When problems such as abnormal cutting seam, arc-interruption, difficult arc-start occurs, please check easy-worn-out consumables like nozzle or electrode and replace them if they are bad consumption.
