    8695 9001 / E F - USING SP20/45 AND MP2/5 TORCHES 1 - CHOOSING THE CONSTRICTING NOZZLE This choicemust bemade according to the assembly to be welded and is characterised firstly by the thickness and secondly by the grade of thematerial to be welded which requiresmore or less energy.
  • Page 13 F - USING SP20/45 AND MP2/5 TORCHES 8695 9001 / E Any black or blue-coloured marks indicate a post-gas fault. POINTING Pointing must be done using a grinding wheel, it is preferable not to hold the electrode manually. Ensure that the particles are removed along the generating lines of the cone whose vertex angle must be 20 to 25%.
  • Page 14: G - Operating Hints And Tips

    8695 9001 / E G - OPERATING HINTS AND TIPS SP 20/45 torches are packed in very clean conditions; the gas circuits have been cleaned with dry nitrogen. We recommend that the torch only be unpacked at the moment it is to be connected to the NERTAMATIC 50 or PLASMAFIX 51 power sources and that the circuits be purged before lighting the arc, using the welding gases, that is to say, Pure ARGON for the plasma gas circuit.

    G - OPERATING HINTS AND TIPS 8695 9001 / E 4 - UTILISATION DURING WELDING Follow instruction n° 415.18 for the NERTAMATIC 50 or PLASMAFIX 51 power source for everything concerning its startup, presettings, gas flow adjustments and pilot arc lighting. Place the constricting orifice at an average distance of 2 mm from the welding surface.
