GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PRO-CUT 60 is a constant current, single range, continuous control plasma cutting system. The microprocessor-based PRO-CUT 60 is capa- ble of cutting with compressed air or nitrogen gas. Nitrogen gas is used to cut aluminum or other non-ferrous metals. This sophisticated system has excellent starting characteristics, cutting visibility, and arc stability. The machine automatically per- forms fundamental troubleshooting when turned ON.
The PRO-CUT 60 is equipped with a patented plasma torch that has a safety mechanism that assures consumables are in place before cutting or gouging. This is extremely important due to the high voltages involved. Two standard torch cable lengths are available: a 25 ft. (7.6m) torch cable or a 50 ft. (15.2m) torch cable. The machine also comes with an air regulator, coarse air filter, pressure gage, and spare parts kit. The standard undercarriage is shipped assembled, except for the handle.
RECOMMENDED PROCESSES AND EQUIPMENT
The PRO-CUT 60 is capable of all cutting and gouging applications within its output capacity of 25 to 60 amps. These applications include thin gage sheet metal and expanded metal.
OPERATIONAL FEATURES AND CONTROLS
The PRO-CUT 60 comes with an ON/OFF POWER SWITCH, OUTPUT CURRENT CON- TROL, and a RUN/PURGE SWITCH.
DESIGN FEATURES AND
ADVANTAGES
The microprocessor controlled PRO-CUT 60 design makes plasma cutting and gouging tasks uncomplicated. This list of design features and advantages will help you understand the machine's total capabilities so that you can get maximum use of your machine.
•Single continuous output range of 25-60 amps.
•Microprocessor controlled overshooting limiting function increases consumable life.
•High intensity, high frequency starter.
•Unique microprocessor controlled starting sequence for consistent starting and torch protection.
•Solid state pilot duty cycle limiting.Protects components without fuses that would have to be replaced.
•Bright 2.5-second timed pilot arc.
•Purge/Run switch.
•Two independent mechanisms for sensing a shorted torch. Needed for safety and torch protection.
•Patented safety sensor monitors if torch parts are in place.
•Latching safety circuit mechanism requires that the operator reset the circuit.
•Exposed torch parts voltage monitoring with safety shutdown.
•Built-in undercarriage for portability.
•Built-in air controls, including air pressure regulator.
•Air line filtering.
•Preflow/Afterflow timing. Preflow stops if cutting or gouging resumes in previous afterflow.
•Easy to use torch trigger switch.
•Line voltage compensated.
•Thermostatically protected.
•Solid state overcurrent protection.
