SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1.0 Safety Precautions
WARNING: These Safety Precautions are
for your protection. They summarize pre­cautionary information from the references
listed in Additional Safety Information sec­tion. Before performing any installation or operating procedures, be sure to read and follow the safety precau­tions listed below as well as all other manuals, material safety data sheets, labels, etc. Failure to observe Safety Precautions can result in injury or death.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS -­Some welding, cutting, and gouging processes are noisy and require ear protection. The arc, like the sun, emits
ultraviolet (UV) and other radiation and can injure skin and eyes. Hot metal can cause burns. Training in the proper use of the processes and equipment is essential to prevent accidents. Therefore:
1. Always wear safety glasses with side shields in any
work area, even if welding helmets, face shields, and goggles are also required.
2. Use a face shield tted with the correct lter and
cover plates to protect your eyes, face, neck, and ears from sparks and rays of the arc when operating or observing operations. Warn bystanders not to watch the arc and not to expose themselves to the rays of the electric-arc or hot metal.
3. Wear ameproof gauntlet type gloves, heavy long-
sleeve shirt, cuess trousers, high-topped shoes, and a welding helmet or cap for hair protection, to protect against arc rays and hot sparks or hot metal. A ameproof apron may also be desirable as protec­tion against radiated heat and sparks.
4. Hot sparks or metal can lodge in rolled up sleeves,
trouser cus, or pockets. Sleeves and collars should be kept buttoned, and open pockets eliminated from the front of clothing.
5. Protect other personnel from arc rays and hot
sparks with a suitable non-ammable partition or curtains.
6. Use goggles over safety glasses when chipping slag
or grinding. Chipped slag may be hot and can y far. Bystanders should also wear goggles over safety glasses.
1.1 Safety - English
FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS -- Heat from ames and arcs can start res. Hot slag or sparks can also cause res and explosions. Therefore:
1. Remove all combustible materials well away from the work area or cover the materials with a protec­tive non-ammable covering. Combustible materials include wood, cloth, sawdust, liquid and gas fuels, solvents, paints and coatings, paper, etc.
2. Hot sparks or hot metal can fall through cracks or crevices in oors or wall openings and cause a hid­den smoldering re or res on the oor below. Make certain that such openings are protected from hot sparks and metal.“
3. Do not weld, cut or perform other hot work until the workpiece has been completely cleaned so that there are no substances on the workpiece which might produce ammable or toxic vapors. Do not do hot work on closed containers. They may explode.
4. Have re extinguishing equipment handy for instant use, such as a garden hose, water pail, sand bucket, or portable re extinguisher. Be sure you are trained in its use.
5. Do not use equipment beyond its ratings. For ex­ample, overloaded welding cable can overheat and create a re hazard.
6. After completing operations, inspect the work area to make certain there are no hot sparks or hot metal which could cause a later re. Use re watchers when necessary.
7. For additional information, refer to NFPA Standard 51B, "Fire Prevention in Use of Cutting and Welding Processes", available from the National Fire Protec­tion Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA
02269.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK -- Contact with live electrical parts and ground can cause severe injury or death. DO NOT use AC welding current in damp areas, if movement is conned, or if there is danger of falling.
5
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Be sure the power source frame (chassis) is con­nected to the ground system of the input power.
2. Connect the workpiece to a good electrical ground.
3. Connect the work cable to the workpiece. A poor or missing connection can expose you or others to a fatal shock.
4. Use well-maintained equipment. Replace worn or damaged cables.
5. Keep everything dry, including clothing, work area, cables, torch/electrode holder, and power source.
6. Make sure that all parts of your body are insulated from work and from ground.
7. Do not stand directly on metal or the earth while working in tight quarters or a damp area; stand on dry boards or an insulating platform and wear rubber-soled shoes.
8. Put on dry, hole-free gloves before turning on the power.
3. Welders should use the following procedures to minimize exposure to EMF:
A. Route the electrode and work cables together.
Secure them with tape when possible.
B. Never coil the torch or work cable around your
body.
C. Do not place your body between the torch and
work cables. Route cables on the same side of your body.
D. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close
as possible to the area being welded.
E. Keep welding power source and cables as far
away from your body as possible.
FUMES AND GASES -- Fumes and gases, can cause discomfort or harm, particularly in conned spaces. Do not breathe fumes and gases. Shield­ing gases can cause asphyxiation.
Therefore:
9. Turn o the power before removing your gloves.
10. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (listed on next page) for specic grounding recommenda­tions. Do not mistake the work lead for a ground cable.
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS — May be dangerous. Electric cur­rent owing through any conduc­tor causes localized Electric and
Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding and cutting current creates EMF around welding cables and welding machines. Therefore:
1. Welders having pacemakers should consult their
physician before welding. EMF may interfere with some pacemakers.
2. Exposure to EMF may have other health eects which
are unknown.
1. Always provide adequate ventilation in the work area by natural or mechanical means. Do not weld, cut, or gouge on materials such as galvanized steel, stain­less steel, copper, zinc, lead, beryllium, or cadmium unless positive mechanical ventilation is provided. Do not breathe fumes from these materials.
2. Do not operate near degreasing and spraying opera­tions. The heat or arc rays can react with chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors to form phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritant gases.
3. If you develop momentary eye, nose, or throat ir­ritation while operating, this is an indication that ventilation is not adequate. Stop work and take necessary steps to improve ventilation in the work area. Do not continue to operate if physical discom­fort persists.
4. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (see listing below) for specic ventilation recommendations.

AVERTISSEMENT : Ces règles de sécurité
ont pour but d'assurer votre protection. Ils récapitulent les informations de précaution
provenant des références dans la section des Informations de sécurité supplémentaires. Avant de procéder à l'installation ou d'utiliser l'unité, assurez­vous de lire et de suivre les précautions de sécurité ci­dessous, dans les manuels, les ches d'information sur la sécurité du matériel et sur les étiquettes, etc. Tout défaut d'observer ces précautions de sécurité peut entraîner des blessures graves ou mortelles.
PROTÉGEZ-VOUS -- Les processus de soudage, de coupage et de gougeage
produisent un niveau de bruit élevé et exige l'emploi d'une protection auditive. L'arc, tout comme le soleil, émet des rayons ultraviolets en plus d'autre rayons qui peuvent causer des blessures à la peau et les yeux. Le métal incandescent peut causer des brûlures. Une formation reliée à l'usage des processus et de l'équipement est essentielle pour prévenir les accidents. Par conséquent:
1. Portez des lunettes protectrices munies d'écrans la-
téraux lorsque vous êtes dans l'aire de travail, même si vous devez porter un casque de soudeur, un écran facial ou des lunettes étanches.
2. Portez un écran facial muni de verres ltrants et de
plaques protectrices appropriées an de protéger vos yeux, votre visage, votre cou et vos oreilles des étincelles et des rayons de l'arc lors d'une opération ou lorsque vous observez une opération. Avertissez les personnes se trouvant à proximité de ne pas re­garder l'arc et de ne pas s'exposer aux rayons de l'arc électrique ou le métal incandescent.
3. Portez des gants ignifugiés à crispin, une chemise
épaisse à manches longues, des pantalons sans rebord et des chaussures montantes an de vous protéger des rayons de l'arc, des étincelles et du métal incandescent, en plus d'un casque de soudeur ou casquette pour protéger vos cheveux. Il est également recommandé de porter un tablier ininammable an de vous proté­ger des étincelles et de la chaleur par rayonnement.

8. Avant de mettre l'équipement sous tension, isolez vos mains avec des gants secs et sans trous.
9. Mettez l'équipement hors tension avant d'enlever vos gants.
10. Consultez ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (listé à la page suivante) pour des recommandations spéciques concernant les procédures de mise à la terre. Ne pas confondre le câble de masse avec le câble de mise à la terre.
CHAMPS ÉLECTRIQUES ET MAGNÉ­TIQUES — comportent un risque de danger. Le courant électrique qui passe dans n'importe quel conduc-
teur produit des champs électriques et magnétiques localisés. Le soudage et le cou­rant de coupage créent des champs électriques et magnétiques autour des câbles de soudage et l'équipement. Par conséquent :
1. Un soudeur ayant un stimulateur cardiaque doit
consulter son médecin avant d'entreprendre une opération de soudage. Les champs électriques et magnétiques peuvent causer des ennuis pour cer­tains stimulateurs cardiaques.
2. L'exposition à des champs électriques et magné-
tiques peut avoir des eets néfastes inconnus pour la santé.
3. Les soudeurs doivent suivre les procédures suivantes pour minimiser l'exposition aux champs électriques et magnétiques :
A. Acheminez l'électrode et les câbles de masse
ensemble. Fixez-les à l'aide d'une bande adhésive lorsque possible.
B. Ne jamais enrouler la torche ou le câble de masse
autour de votre corps.
C. Ne jamais vous placer entre la torche et les câbles
de masse. Acheminez tous les câbles sur le même côté de votre corps.
D. Branchez le câble de masse à la pièce à traiter le
plus près possible de la section à souder.
E. Veillez à garder la source d'alimentation pour le
soudage et les câbles à une distance appropriée de votre corps.
LES VAPEURS ET LES GAZ -- peuvent causer un malaise ou des dommages corporels, plus particulièrement dans les espaces restreints. Ne re­spirez pas les vapeurs et les gaz. Le gaz de protection risque de causer l'asphyxie. Par conséquent :
1. Assurez en permanence une ventilation adéquate dans l'aire de travail en maintenant une ventila­tion naturelle ou à l'aide de moyens mécanique. N'effectuez jamais de travaux de soudage, de coupage ou de gougeage sur des matériaux tels que l'acier galvanisé, l'acier inoxydable, le cuivre, le zinc, le plomb, le berylliym ou le cadmium en l'absence de moyens mécaniques de ventilation ecaces. Ne respirez pas les vapeurs de ces matériaux.
2. N'eectuez jamais de travaux à proximité d'une opération de dégraissage ou de pulvérisation. Lor­sque la chaleur
ou le rayonnement de l'arc entre en contact avec les
vapeurs d'hydrocarbure chloré, ceci peut déclencher la formation de phosgène ou d'autres gaz irritants, tous extrêmement toxiques.
3. Une irritation momentanée des yeux, du nez ou de la gorge au cours d'une opération indique que la ven­tilation n'est pas adéquate. Cessez votre travail an de prendre les mesures nécessaires pour améliorer la ventilation dans l'aire de travail. Ne poursuivez pas l'opération si le malaise persiste.
4. Consultez ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (à la page suivante) pour des recommandations spéciques concernant la ventilation.

SÉCURITÉ
5. AVERTISSEMENT : Ce produit, lorsqu'il est utilisé dans une opération de soudage ou de coupage, dégage des vapeurs ou des gaz contenant des chimiques consid­éres par l'état de la Californie comme étant une cause des malformations congénitales et dans certains cas, du cancer. (California Health & Safety Code §25249.5 et seq.)
MANIPULATION DES CYLINDRES -­La manipulation d'un cylindre, sans observer les précautions nécessaires, peut produire des fissures et un
échappement dangereux des gaz. Une brisure soudaine du cylindre, de la soupape ou du dispositif de surpression peut causer des bles­sures graves ou mortelles. Par conséquent :
1. Utilisez toujours le gaz prévu pour une opération
et le détendeur approprié conçu pour utilisation sur les cylindres de gaz comprimé. N'utilisez jamais d'adaptateur. Maintenez en bon état les tuyaux et les raccords. Observez les instructions d'opération du fabricant pour assembler le détendeur sur un cylindre de gaz comprimé.
2. Fixez les cylindres dans une position verticale, à
l'aide d'une chaîne ou une sangle, sur un chariot manuel, un châssis de roulement, un banc, un mur, une colonne ou un support convenable. Ne xez jamais un cylindre à un poste de travail ou toute autre dispositif faisant partie d'un circuit électrique.
3. Lorsque les cylindres ne servent pas, gardez les
soupapes fermées. Si le détendeur n'est pas bran­ché, assurez-vous que le bouchon de protection de la soupape est bien en place. Fixez et déplacez les cylindres à l'aide d'un chariot manuel approprié. Toujours manipuler les cylindres avec soin.
4. Placez les cylindres à une distance appropriée
de toute source de chaleur, des étincelles et des ammes. Ne jamais amorcer l'arc sur un cylindre.
5. Pour de l'information supplémentaire, consultez

Notes on 600A Cutting
H-35 plasma gas/nitrogen shield produces good to excellent cut quality on 1" to 3" aluminum. H-35 plasma gas/air shield produces cut quality nearly as good on 1-1/2" to 3" aluminum. Nitrogen plasma gas/air shield produces fair quality cuts on 1" to 1-1/2" aluminum.
H-35 plasma gas/nitrogen shield yields the best quality on 1" to 3" stainless steel, with smooth surfaces and moderate quantities of dross. Nitrogen plasma gas/air shield may be used to achieve good cuts on 1" and fair cuts on 1-1/2" stainless steels at higher speeds than H-35.
Piercing of plate 2" to 3" thick is best accomplished with the moving pierce technique. Start the arc at 3/4" stando, 250 amps, and 35 to 40 ipm. Immediately upon arc transfer, raise the stando to a cutting voltage of 225 to 240 volts. After the arc has been on approximately one second, ramp the current up to 600 amps over a two second interval. After another two second delay, reduce the speed to approxi­mately half the recommended cutting speed until the arc burns through the plate.

SECTION 4 MAINTENANCE
4.1 INTRODUCTION
If this equipment does not operate properly, stop work immediately and investigate the cause of the malfunction. Maintenance work must be performed by an experienced person, and electrical work by a trained electrician. Do not permit untrained persons to inspect, clean, or repair this equipment. Use only
recommended replacement parts.
NOTE
For detailed maintenance, troubleshooting, and parts information on the power source, see Instruction Manual F-14-483 (PCM-150) and supplement F-15-027 (PCM-1500), or F-15-528 (PCM-8XL), F-15-108 (ESP-400), F-15-237 (ESP-600C), F-15-141 (ESP-300) or F-15-116 (ESP-1000).
NOTE
Removing the nozzle from torch to check electrode wear greatly reduces electrode life. To maximize electrode life, only remove nozzle when changing electrode.
NOTE
Always remove heat shield or shield retainer before removing retaining cup. If heat shield will not loosen, tighten retaining cup to reduce pressure on heat shield.
B. Check copper nozzle for melting from excessive current, gouges from internal arcing, or nicks and deep scratches
on the O-ring sealing surface. If any of these defects are visible, replace the nozzle. (Discoloration of the internal surfaces and small black starting marks are normal.) Hafnium particles may be removed with ne sandpaper or steel wool.
C. Apply a light coating of silicone lubricant (P/N 17672-1 oz. tube) around the periphery of the nozzle and O-ring.
Make sure the O-ring (P/N 181W89) is set evenly around the shoulder of the nozzle. D. Insert the nozzle into the torch. E. Screw retaining cup onto the torch slowly to HAND TIGHTNESS. The nozzle will seat against the gas swirl bae (P/N
948142). Do NOT overtighten. F. Select proper gas diuser shield. Place diuser inside shield. G. Place shield with diuser into the shield retainer and screw the shield retainer rmly onto the nozzle retaining
cup.
NOTE: If secondary shield is not to be used - install heat shield at step F.
Make sure that the heat shield, shield retainer, and other front end parts are cool be­fore handling.

4.2 REPLACING PT19XLS NOZZLE REFER TO FIGURE 51
A. To remove nozzle, unscrew shield retainer or heat shield and retaining cup, then grip the nozzle and pull straight
out.
4.3 REPLACING ELECTRODE AND GAS SWIRL BAFFLE
A. Remove shield retainer or heat shield, retaining cup, and nozzle as described above. B. Remove electrode by using the 7/16-inch nut driver (P/N 996568 - supplied with the torch). If electrode holder did
not come out with tip, then the electrode holder can be removed by using removal tool (P/N 37110) supplied with the torch. The lugs will engage with the slots on the tip holder. Make sure you hold the nut driver or removal tool straight, whether removing or reassembling the electrode, to avoid damaging the gas swirl bae. The gas swirl
bae should come out with the electrode holder. If it does not, remove carefully. C. Replace electrode if the hafnium insert is pitted more than 0.090 inch (2.3 mm). D. Check O-rings (P/N 86W99). One is located on the inside of the electrode holder, the other on the outside. If nicked,
it should be replaced, exercising care to avoid scratching the O-ring groove. Lubricate new O-ring lightly with
silicone grease before installing it into the electrode holder. E. Replace the gas swirl bae if it is cracked or if the front edge (nozzle seating surface) is chipped. F. When reassembling, slip the gas swirl bae over the electrode/electrode holder assembly. If the o-ring is well
lubricated, it may be possible to snap the bae over it. Otherwise, remove the o-ring, install the bae, or reinstall
the o-ring. Then screw the electrode assembly into the torch using the 7/16-inch nut driver. Tighten rmly but do
NOT overtighten.
4.4 REPLACING INSULATOR ASSEMBLY
The insulator assembly (P/N 37083) should be removed periodically and inspected for cracking and for possible replacement of the six O-rings. To remove the insulator body, do the following:
A. Remove shield retainer or heat shield, nozzle retaining cup, nozzle, electrode, electrode holder, and gas swirl bae
as described above.
Loosen setscrew inside of insulator body at least 1 full turn.
B. Pull the insulator body straight out. C. Lubricate the O-rings sparingly with silicone grease. If necessary, replace O-rings. D. Remove contact ring assembly from the insulator body by removing one socket head screw with a 7/64-inch hex
Allen wrench (supplied with torch). E. Reassemble in reverse order. Align insulator body with locating pin (P/N 37063) and push in.
After tightening electrode holder, tighten the #6-32 setscrew in the side of the insulator body.

SECTION 4 MAINTENANCE
4.5 REPLACING CABLES AND HOSE
A. To disconnect the power cable, water return hose, and gas hose at the back end of the torch, unscrew the berglass
sleeve (P/N 37064) from the stainless steel body.
B. The pilot arc cable is attached to connector (P/N 20408) under insulator (P/N 20409). Remove tape behind the
insulator so that it can be slid up the pilot arc cable exposing the connector. Loosen set screws with 7/64-inch hex Allen wrench to remove cable from connector.
C. Straighten out the service lines and make sure the torch sleeve is straight when screwing it back onto the torch
body. Threads are rather ne and easy to cross-thread. Do not force the sleeve. Apply a small amount of silicone grease to help ease re-threading.
D. Secure the sleeving boot with a hose to protect the service lines from arc radiation. When the torch is ready to
operate, make sure the service lines are well out of the way.

Supplement To F-15-430 PT-19XLS Process Data Using SmartFlow II
Supplement to F-15-430 PT-19XLS Plasma Torch Manual
Introduction
The following information is a result of many hours of testing and is a general guide for setting up and cutting with a PT-19XLS Mechanized Plasma Arc Torch. The machine’s control manages gas flow using Smart Flow II, a proportional valve flow control system.
In most cases these settings will provide a quality cut. The data contains values for:
cutting aluminum, carbon and stainless steel
arc voltage (standoff)
cutting speed
current (amperes)
gas flow rates for plasma/shield gas combinations
This same data is contained in SDP files. (See your machine and programming manuals for more information on SDP files.)
Speed, voltage, kerf, and current can be
NOTICE
used any time for a PT-19XLS torch application.
Process data was derived using the Smart Flow II, a programmable gas flow control. This same information is used in creating Vision CNC process control (SDP) files. Only gas flow rates are given for reference when using Smart Flow II.
voltage, kerf, and current (amperes) remain applicable when cutting with manual gas regulation systems.
Speed, arc
Underwater Cutting Speeds Must Slowed by
NOTICE
10%.
As a general rule, above water cutting speeds can be applied to underwater cutting by reducing speeds by 10%. There are two underwater examples offered for reference.
