INTRODUCTION

2T.01 Scope of Manual

This manual contains descriptions, operating instructions and maintenance procedures for the 1Torch Models SL60QD™ hand torches and SL100SV Automated Plasma Cutting Torches. Service of this equipment is restricted to properly trained personnel; unqualiﬁed personnel are strictly cautioned against attempting repairs or adjustments not covered in this manual, at the risk of voiding the Warranty.

Read this manual thoroughly. A complete understanding of the characteristics and capabilities of this equipment will assure the dependable operation for which it was designed.

2T.02 General Description

Plasma torches are similar in design to the automotive spark plug. They consist of negative and positive sections separated by a center insulator. Inside the torch, the pilot arc starts in the gap between the negatively charged electrode and the positively charged tip. Once the pilot arc has ionized the plasma gas, the superheated column of gas ﬂows through the small oriﬁce in the torch tip, which is focused on the metal to be cut.

A single torch lead provides gas from a single source to be used as both the plasma and secondary gas. The air ﬂow is divided inside the torch head. Single - gas operation provides a smaller sized torch and inexpensive operation.

2T.04 Quick Connection Torch

The new SL60QD™ (Quick Disconnect) torch allows for a quick change of the torch handle assembly from the leads. To change the torch handle assembly do the following.

1. Remove the torch handle assembly by grasping the torch handle in one hand and the coupler nut and leads in the other.

2. Rotate the nut a minimum of one full turn to the left (counter closkwise) and pull the torch handle assembly out from the leads in a straight line.

3. To reattach, grasp both as before and carefully align the internal connecting parts.

4. Carefully press the two together in a straight line.

5. Align the mark on the coupler nut with that on the top of the torch handle and rotate to the right (clockwise) drawing the two together and seating the connections inside.

WARNING

This Torch is not to be used with oxygen (O2).

The SL60QD torch should not be used on an HF system.

NOTE!

Operating pressure varies with torch model, operating amperage, and torch leads length. Refer to gas pressure settings charts for each model..

H. Direct Contact Hazard

For standoff tip the recommended standoff is 3/16 inches / 4.7 mm.

Plasma is a gas which has been heated to an extremely high temperature and ionized so that it becomes electrically conductive. The plasma arc cutting and gouging processes use this plasma to transfer an electrical arc to the workpiece. The metal to be cut or removed is melted by the heat of the arc and then blown away.

While the goal of plasma arc cutting is separation of the material, plasma arc gouging is used to remove metals to a controlled depth and width.

In a Plasma Cutting Torch a cool gas enters Zone B, where a pilot arc between the electrode and the torch tip heats and ionizes the gas. The main cutting arc then transfers to the workpiece through the column of plasma gas in Zone C.

Supply

Workpiece

A40i, A60i

C. Pilot Arc

When the torch is started a pilot arc is established between the electrode and cutting or gouging tip. This pilot arc creates a path for the main arc to transfer to the work.

D. Main Cutting Arc

DC power is also used for the main cutting arc. The negative output is connected to the torch electrode through the torch lead. The positive output is connected to the workpiece via the work cable and to the torch through a pilot wire.

E. Parts - In - Place (PIP)

The torch includes a 'Parts - In - Place' (PIP) circuit. When the shield cup is properly installed, it closes a switch. The torch will not operate if this switch is open.

By forcing the plasma gas and electric arc through a small oriﬁce, the torch delivers a high concentration of heat to a small area. The stiff, constricted plasma arc is shown in Zone C. Direct current (DC) straight polarity is used for plasma cutting, as shown in the illustration.

Zone A channels a secondary gas that cools the torch. This gas also assists the high velocity plasma gas in blowing the molten metal out of the cut allowing for a fast, slag - free cut.

B. Gas Distribution

The single gas used is internally split into plasma and secondary gases.

The plasma gas ﬂows into the torch through the negative lead, through the starter cartridge, around the electrode, and out through the tip oriﬁce.

The secondary gas ﬂows down around the outside of the torch starter cartridge, and out between the tip and shield cup around the plasma arc.

Connect Work Cable

Clamp the work cable to the workpiece or cutting table. The area must be free from oil, paint and rust. Connect only to the main part of the workpiece; do not connect to the part to be cut o.

Power ON

Place the Power Supply ON / OFF switch to the ON (right) position. AC indicator turns ON. The Control Board performs several tests to determine the system is ready to operate. During the self-tests the digital

display rst shows (revision) followed by the rmware revision number which includes decimals. 1.1.0 is an example of a production released code revision that may be displayed.

Next displayed is the “checksum” a combination of letters and numbers that are unique to the rmware revision. These are used by service personal to determine if the rmware has been corrupted.

If there are no issues detected the output current setting will be displayed with the letter "A" to the right, showing the output current setting. Should a problem be detected the fault code in the format Exxx will display and the “A” will not be illuminated. Refer to Section 5.04 for fault code explanations.

Set Operating Pressure

NOTE!

Before the gas pressure is set, the torch type, leads length, type of cutting and amperage should all be set as they will aect the pressures required. If any of those are changed, the pressure should be checked again to make sure it is optimized.

1. Gas pressure must be set in the cutting mode to be used, not in the SET/PURGE mode. Each mode may require a different pressure for optimal cutting. (90 - 125 PSI / 6.2 - 8.6 bar)

2. Set the gas pressure/ﬂow using the lower knob, 2. Changes will show on the Gas Pressure Interlock The green indicator in the center is the ideal setting. Each indicator when lit separately is equal to 5 lbs. from the segment next to it. Each will show 5, 10 or 15 lbs or more below or above the ideal. When two segments are illuminated together then the change is half as much or 2.5 lbs.. The pressure settings will all be affected by the other settings for torch, torch length and type of cutting and will require adjustments to the pressure setting.

Cutting Operation

When the torch leaves the workpiece during cutting operations in the RUN mode, there is a brief delay in restarting the pilot arc. With the system in the RAPID AUTO RESTART mode, when the torch leaves the workpiece the pilot arc restarts instantly, and the cutting arc restarts instantly when the pilot arc contacts the workpiece. (Use the 'Rapid Auto Restart' mode when cutting expanded metal or gratings, or trimming operations when an uninterrupted restart is desired).

With the system in the LATCH mode the main cutting arc will be maintained after the torch switch is released. To exit or cancel the LATCH mode, press and release the trigger again or lift the torch from the cutting surface so the arc goes out.

Typical Cutting Speeds

Cutting speeds vary according to torch output amperage, the type of material being cut, and operator skill. Refer to Section "4T.08 Recommended Cutting Speeds for Mechanized Torch With Exposed Tip" and following for greater details.

Output current setting or cutting speeds may be reduced to allow slower cutting when following a line, or using a template or cutting guide while still producing cuts of excellent quality.

Postﬂow

Release the trigger to stop the cutting arc. Gas continues to ow for approximately 20 seconds. During post - ow, if the user moves the trigger release to the rear and presses the trigger, the pilot arc starts. The main arc transfers to the workpiece if the torch tip is within transfer distance to the workpiece.

Shutdown

Turn the ON / OFF switch to OFF, to the left as you face the unit from the rear. After a short delay all Power Supply indicators and fan shut OFF. Unplug the input power cord or disconnect input power. Power is removed from the system.

NOTE!

To maximize the longevity of the internal electronics, allow the power supply to continue running (without cutting) until the cooling fan speed changes to slow.. This may take a few minutes

OPERATION

4T.01 Machine and Automated Torch

Operation

Cutting With Machine or Automated Torch

These torches are activated by remote control pendant or by a remote interface device such as CNC.

1. To start a cut at the plate edge, position the center of the torch along the edge of the plate.

A40i, A60i

For optimum smooth surface quality, the travel speed should be adjusted so that only the leading edge of the arc column produces the cut. If the travel speed is too slow, a rough cut will be produced as the arc moves from side to side in search of metal for transfer.

Travel speed also affects the bevel angle of a cut. When cutting in a circle or around a corner, slowing down the travel speed will result in a squarer cut. The power source output should be reduced also. Refer to the appropriate Control Module Operating Manual for any Corner Slowdown adjustments that may be required.

Travel Speed

Proper travel speed is indicated by the trail of the arc which is seen below the plate. The arc can be one of the following:

1. Straight Arc

A straight arc is perpendicular to the workpiece surface. This arc is generally recommended for the best cut using air plasma on stainless or aluminum.

2. Leading Arc

The leading arc is directed in the same direction as torch travel. A ﬁve degree leading arc is generally recommended for air plasma on mild steel.

3. Trailing Arc

The trailing arc is directed in the opposite direction as torch travel.

Piercing With Machine or Automated Torch

To pierce, the arc should be started with the torch positioned as high as possible above the plate while allowing the arc to transfer and pierce. This standoff helps avoid having molten metal blow back onto the front end of the torch.

When operating with a cutting machine, a pierce or dwell time is required. Torch travel should not be enabled until the arc penetrates the bottom of the plate. As motion begins, torch standoff should be reduced to the recommended 1/8 - 1/4 inch (3-6 mm) distance for optimum speed and cut quality. Clean spatter and scale from the shield cup and the tip as soon as possible. Spraying or dipping the shield cup in anti - spatter compound will minimize the amount of scale which adheres to it.

4T.02 Automation Torch Parts Selection

Check the torch for proper consumable parts. The parts supplied in the torch may not be correct for the operator’s chosen amperage level. The torch parts must correspond with the type of operation.

4T.04 Cut Quality

NOTE!

Cut quality depends heavily on setup and parameters such as torch stando, alignment with the workpiece, cutting speed, gas pressures, and operator ability.

Cut quality requirements differ depending on application. For instance, nitride build - up and bevel angle may be major factors when the surface will be welded after cutting. Dross - free cutting is important when ﬁnish cut quality is desired to avoid a secondary cleaning operation. The following cut quality characteristics are illustrated in the following ﬁgure:

Cut Surface

The desired or speciﬁed condition (smooth or rough) of the face of the cut.

Nitride Build - Up

Nitride deposits can be left on the surface of the cut when nitrogen is present in the plasma gas stream. These buildups may create difﬁculties if the material is to be welded after the cutting process.

Bevel Angle

The angle between the surface of the cut edge and a plane perpendicular to the surface of the plate. A perfectly perpendicular cut would result in a 0° bevel angle.

Top - Edge Rounding

Rounding on the top edge of a cut due to wearing from the initial contact of the plasma arc on the workpiece.

Bottom Dross Buildup

Molten material which is not blown out of the cut area and resolidiﬁes on the plate. Excessive dross may require secondary cleanup operations after cutting.

Kerf Width

The width of the cut (or the width of material removed during the cut).

4T.05 General Cutting Information

WARNING

Disconnect primary power at the source before assembling or disassembling the power supply, torch parts, or torch and leads assemblies. Frequently review the Important Safety Precautions at the front of this manual. Be sure the operator is equipped with proper gloves, clothing, eye and ear protection. Make sure no part of the operator’s body comes into contact with the workpiece while the torch is activated.

Edge Starting

For edge starts, hold the torch perpendicular to the workpiece with the front of the tip near (not touching) the edge of the workpiece at the point where the cut is to start. When starting at the edge of the plate, do not pause at the edge and force the arc to "reach" for the edge of the metal. Establish the cutting arc as quickly as possible.

Direction of Cut

In the torches, the plasma gas stream swirls as it leaves the torch to maintain a smooth column of gas. This swirl effect results in one side of a cut being more square than the other. Viewed along the direction of travel, the right side of the cut is more square than the left.

CAUTION

Sparks from the cutting process can cause damage to coated, painted, and other surfaces such as glass, plastic and metal.

NOTE!

ForHandle torch leads with care and protect them from damage..

Piloting

Piloting is harder on parts life than actual cutting because the pilot arc is directed from the electrode to the tip rather than to a workpiece. Whenever possible, avoid excessive pilot arc time to improve parts life.

Torch Standoff

Improper standoff (the distance between the torch tip and workpiece) can adversely affect tip life as well as shield cup life. Standoff may also signiﬁcantly affect the bevel angle. Reducing standoff will generally result in a more square cut.

Side Characteristics Of Cut

To make a square - edged cut along an inside diameter of a circle, the torch should move counterclockwise around the circle. To keep the square edge along an outside diameter cut, the torch should travel in a clockwise direction.

Dross

When dross is present on carbon steel, it is commonly referred to as either “high speed, slow speed, or top dross”. Dross present on top of the plate is normally caused by too great a torch to plate distance. "Top dross" is normally very easy to remove and can often be wiped off with a welding glove. "Slow speed dross" is normally present on the bottom edge of the plate. It can vary from a light to

edge, and can be easily scraped off. "High speed dross" usually forms a narrow bead along the bottom of the cut edge and is very difﬁcult to remove. When cutting a troublesome steel, it is sometimes useful to reduce the cutting speed to produce "slow speed dross". Any resultant cleanup can be accomplished by scraping, not grinding.

• Torch parts wear

• Air quality

• Line voltage ﬂuctuations

• Torch standoff height

• Proper work cable connection

4T.07 Gouging

WARNING

Be sure the operator is equipped with proper gloves, clothing, eye and ear protection and that all safety precautions at the front of this manual have been followed. Make sure no part of the operator’s body comes in contact with the workpiece when the torch is activated. Disconnect primary power to the system before disassembling the torch, leads, or power supply.

CAUTION

Gouging Parameters

Gouging performance depends on parameters such as torch travel speed, current level, lead angle (the angle between the torch and workpiece), and the distance between the torch tip and workpiece (standoff).

Sparks from the cutting process can cause damage to coated, painted, and other surfaces such as glass, plastic and metal. Check torch parts. The torch parts must correspond with the type of operation. Refer to Section 4T.09, Torch Parts Selection.

CAUTION

Touching the torch tip or shield cup to the work surface will cause excessive parts wear..

Torch Travel Speed

NOTE!

Refer to Appendix Pages for additional information as related to the Power Supply used..

Optimum torch travel speed is dependent on current setting, lead angle, and mode of operation (hand or machine torch).

Current Setting

Current settings depend on torch travel speed, mode of operation (hand or machine torch), and the amount of material to be removed.

A-00941_AB

Lead Angle

The angle between the torch and workpiece depends on the output current setting and torch travel speed. The recommended lead angle is 35°. At a lead angle greater than 45° the molten metal will not be blown out of the gouge and may be blown back onto the torch. If the lead angle is too small (less than 35°), less material may be removed, requiring more passes. In some applications, such as removing welds or working with light metal, this may be desirable.

Gouging Angle and Standoff Distance

Standoff Distance

The tip to work distance affects gouge quality and depth. Standoff distance of 1/8 - 1/4 inch (3 - 6 mm) allows for smooth, consistent metal removal. Smaller standoff distances may result in a severance cut rather than a gouge. Standoff distances greater than 1/4 inch (6 mm) may result in minimal metal removal or loss of transferred main arc.

Slag Buildup

This Page Intentionally Blank

Slag generated by gouging on materials such as carbon and stainless steels, nickels, and alloyed steels, can be removed easily in most cases. Slag does not obstruct the gouging process if it accumulates to the side of the gouge path. However, slag build - up can cause inconsistencies and irregular metal removal if large amounts of material build up in front of the arc. The build - up is most often a result of improper travel speed, lead angle, or standoff height.
