Do a check of the gas flow settings
When you use oxygen, nitrogen, or argon-hydrogen as the plasmas gas, make sure that the regulator setting for the
gas supply is 8.2 bar +/- 0.7 bar (120 psi +/- 10 psi).
When you use air as the plasma gas, make sure that the regulator setting for the gas supply is 6.2 bar +/- 0.7 bar
(90 psi +/- 10 psi).
Make sure that the regulator setting for shield gas is 6.2 bar +/- 0.7 bar (90 psi +/- 10 psi).
If you changed consumable parts or if the power supply is off for more than 1 hour, purge
the gas line before use. To purge the gas lines, leave the system in test preflow mode for
1 minute. See your system’s instruction manual for information on how to do this.
See Gas requirements and Daily start-up in your system’s instruction manual for
information about correct gas flow settings and about how to adjust preflow and cut flow
gases.
Examine the torch and consumables
Always examine the torch main body and consumables before you cut. Worn or damaged parts can cause gas and water
leaks, which can affect the cut quality.
1. Examine the consumables for pitting and burn marks.
2. Replace any consumable that has damage or excess wear.
See Cut charts and consumable parts index and the Parts list in your system’s instruction
manual for information on replacement parts.

5. Examine all of the O-rings on the torch main body and the consumables for damage or excess wear. Replace any
O-ring or consumable that has damage or excess wear.
Receptacle O-rings and O-rings on the torch main body are available as part of a kit.
Other O-rings are included with the consumables. See Parts list and Changing
consumable parts in your system’s instruction manual for information about replacement
parts.
6. Examine all of the O-rings for the correct amount of lubricant. The O-rings should look shiny. Too much lubricant can
prevent gas flows.
7. If you find excess lubricant, remove it.
See Examine and lubricate all of the O-rings on page 25 of this manual for information
on how to do this.
8. Examine the retaining cap and shield:
Make sure that the retaining cap and shield are tight to the torch main body.
Tighten loose connections, if found, but do not over tighten.
Make sure that the gas holes along the edge of the shield are not blocked with
debris. If you cannot remove the blockage in the gas holes, replace the shield.
Make sure that the center hole in the shield is not blocked with debris. If you
cannot remove the blockage in the center hole, replace the shield.
Make sure that the shield does not have any nicks, gouges, or signs of arcing. If
you find damage, excess wear, or signs of arcing, replace the shield.
9. If the torch has an optional water tube to cool the electrode:
Examine the water tube for bends and pitting. See Examine the optional water tube (if applicable) and the torch
main body on page 25 of this manual for information on how to do this.
If you find bends and pitting, replace the water tube. See Changing the water tube in your system’s instruction
manual for information on how to do this.
10. Examine the nozzle and electrode mating surfaces on the torch main body. Look for pitting, damage, and excess
wear.
11 . Replace any consumable that has damage, or excess wear.
12. Use a clean cloth to clean the internal and external surfaces of the torch main body. Use a cotton swab for internal
surfaces that are not easy to reach.

excess wear.
2. Make sure that all connections between the torch and torch leads are tight. Tighten loose connections if found, but
do not over tighten.
Examine all of the hoses and hose fittings
1. Examine all of the air hoses and coolant hoses for:
Scrapes, cuts, or holes
Chemical spills or burns
Kinks or bends that can cause a restriction
Make sure to examine the following hoses:
hoses connected to the motor valve
gas hoses between the gas console and motor valve
the off-valve hose between the off valve and the torch main body
2. If the cutting table uses a power track system to support hoses between the power supply and gas console, examine
the position of the hoses in the power track. Make sure that these hoses do not kink, bend, or twist during cutting
table operation.
3. Examine all of the hose fittings at the rear of the torch. Damage to the threads on the hose fittings can indicate that
over tightening has occurred.

Make sure that the system is correctly grounded
WARNING!
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL
Make sure the equipment remains properly grounded at all times in compliance with local and national
regulations. Failure to follow proper grounding techniques can result in serious personal injury or
death.
Make sure that all components of the system are individually grounded to a driven earth ground. Do a check that:
Unless noted, use only 110 mm
The cutting table is used for the common, or star, EMI ground point and should have threaded studs welded to the
table with a copper bus bar mounted on them. A separate bus bar should be mounted on the gantry as close to
each motor as possible. If there are motors at each end of the gantry, run a separate EMI ground cable from the
far motor to the gantry bus bar. The gantry bus bar should have a separate, heavy EMI ground cable 21.2 mm
(4 AWG; 047031) to the table bus bar. The EMI ground cables for the torch lifter and the RHF console must each
run separately to the table ground bus.
2
(8 AWG) welding cables for the electromagnetic interference (EMI) ground cables.
2
A ground rod that meets all applicable local and national electrical codes must be installed within 6 m (20 ft) of the
cutting table. This is a potential earth (PE) ground and should be connected to the cutting table ground bus bar using
2
13.3 mm
For the most effective shielding, use the Hypertherm CNC interface cables for I/O signals, serial communication
(6 AWG) green and yellow grounding cable (047121) or equivalent.
signals, between plasma systems in multi-drop connections, and for interconnections between all parts of the
Hypertherm system.
All hardware used in the ground system must be brass or copper. While you can use steel studs welded to the
cutting table for mounting the ground bus, no other aluminum or steel hardware can be used in the ground system.
AC power, PE, and service grounds must be connected to all equipment according to local and national codes.
For a system with a remote high frequency console (RHF), the positive, negative, and pilot arc leads should be
bundled together for as long a distance as possible. The torch lead, work lead, and the pilot arc (nozzle) leads may be
run parallel to other wires or cables only if they are separated by at least 150 mm (6 inches). If possible, run power
and signal cables in separate cable tracks.
For a system with an RHF console, the ignition console should be mounted as closely as possible to the torch, and
must have a separate ground cable that connects directly to the cutting table ground bus bar.
Each Hypertherm component, as well as any other CNC or motor drive cabinet or enclosure, must have a separate
ground cable to the common (star) ground on the table. This includes the ignition console, whether it is bolted to the
plasma system or to the cutting table.
The metal braided shield on the torch lead must be connected firmly to the ignition console and to the torch. It must
be electrically insulated from any metal and from any contact with the floor or building. The torch lead can be run in a
plastic cable tray or track, or covered with a plastic or leather sheath.
The torch holder and the torch breakaway mechanism – the part mounted to the lifter, not the part mounted to the
torch – must be connected to the stationary part of the lifter with copper braid at least 12.7 mm (0.5 inches) wide. A
separate cable must run from the lifter to the gantry ground bus bar. The valve assembly should also have a separate
ground connection to the gantry ground bus bar.
HySpeed HT2000Instruction Manual80902019
Page 20
Preventive Maintenance Program
If the gantry runs on rails that are not welded to the table, then each rail must be connected with a ground cable from
the end of the rail to the table. The rail ground cables connect directly to the table and do not need to connect to the
table ground bus bar.
If you are installing a voltage divider board, mount it as closely as possible to where the arc voltage is sampled.
One recommended location is inside the plasma system enclosure. If a Hypertherm voltage divider board is used, the
output signal is isolated from all other circuits. The processed signal should be run in twisted shielded cable
(Belden 1800F or equivalent). Use a cable with a braided shield, not a foil shield. Connect the shield to the chassis
of the plasma system and leave it unconnected at the other end.
All other signals (analog, digital, serial, and encoder) should run in twisted pairs inside a shielded cable. Connectors
on these cables should have a metal housing. The shield, not the drain, should be connected to the metal housing of
the connector at each end of the cable. Never run the shield or the drain through the connector on any of the pins.
See Module grounding and grounding checks in your system’s instruction manual for
information on how to ground the system.
Examine the exterior of the power supply
Examine the exterior of the power supply for damage. If there is damage, make sure that it does not affect safe operation
of the power supply. If you have concerns, contact your OEM or regional Hypertherm Technical Services to assess the
damage.
Examine and clean the interior of the power supply
WARNING!
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL

Cutting area and operation effects
The Component replacement schedule is for reference only. Your cutting area conditions and operations can have an
effect on your component replacement schedule.
Wear decreases system performance and component life. The most common conditions and operations that can increase
the wear on some components in your plasma system include:
External cutting area
Incoming air supply quality
Metal dust inside of the power supply cabinet
Consumable use
Cut cycle time
If any of these conditions or operations apply, adjust your replacement schedule as suggested.
How much you need to adjust your replacement schedule depends on how bad the condition is. If you have questions
about your replacement schedule, contact your OEM or regional Hypertherm Technical Services team.
External cutting area
Consumables and torch assemblies stored in dirty cutting areas with no protection can collect contamination, such as dirt
and metal dust. If this contamination gets into the torch or coolant, it can cause the following problems:
Prevent O-rings and seals on the torch heads and receptacles from sealing
Increase wear on torch heads and receptacles
36HySpeed HT2000Instruction Manual809020
Page 37
Preventive Maintenance Program
Increase wear on the coolant pump
Cause unsatisfactory operation of the coolant flow switch
It can help to flush the coolant system or clean the flow switch. But, it can be necessary
to replace the coolant switch to fully repair the operation of the coolant loop system.
The best solution is to store consumables and torch assemblies in a clean, protective space. Another solution is to use
compressed air to clean these parts before you use them.
If you cannot store your consumables and torch heads in a protective space, you can replace the following components
more frequently:

To maintain system performance, it is important that the incoming air supply is clean. If the air supply has dirt, oil, or water
in it, components can become clogged or defective. An air supply of bad quality can cause the following problems:
Decrease air flow
Increase system errors
Decrease cut quality and performance
Oil in the torch head can cause a fire when the oil reacts with the oxygen cutting process. Also, unwanted material in
pressure sensors can cause false pressure readings.
The best solution, if possible, is to improve the quality of the air supply. Contact your OEM or regional Hypertherm
Technical Service team if you need advice on how to improve the quality of your air supply.
If you cannot change your air supply quality, you can replace the following components more frequently:

Metal dust inside of the power supply cabinet
Plasma cutting makes metal dust. If metal dust collects inside the plasma power supply, it can decrease the life of the
fans and coolant pump motor.
The main power supply, chopper, or heat exchanger fans can operate more slowly, or failure of the fans can occur. This
can cause temperature-related errors. The coolant pump motor can become too hot and operate incorrectly.
The best solution to extend the life of the fans and coolant pump motor is to clean inside the power supply. For
instructions, see Clean inside of the power supply on page 16.

Consumable use
If you let consumables reach complete failure, they can melt. Copper pieces can then break off and go into the coolant. In
the coolant, these pieces can cause the following problems:
Decrease coolant flow
Increase coolant flow errors
Cause damage to the consumables
Cause coolant to leak at the check vale when you change the consumables
Cause inaccurate coolant flow readings
Decrease the life of the coolant pump
Decrease the lief of the check valve
When you do maintenance, examine the coolant filter for copper pieces. If you find copper pieces in the coolant filter,
replace both the coolant filter and the coolant. If a coolant flow error occurs after you replace the coolant filter and
coolant, use the troubleshooting procedure in your system’s instruction manual to find the correct action.
The best solution is to follow the usage guidelines for your consumables. However, if overuse occurs, you can replace the
following components more frequently:

Cut cycle time
When the cut-cycle is very short, relays operate more frequently. The system also pierces more frequently. Examples of
this type of cycle are when you cut many small holes or make markings for numbers and letters. These types of operations
can cause the following problems:
Increase wear on pilot arc relay contact pads
Increase wear on the starting components, such as the high-frequency transformer and the high-frequency ignition
board
Increase misfires and error codes
If your cut-cycle is short, you can replace the following components more frequently:
