GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The PRO-CUT 25 is an inverter based constant current, continuous control plasma cutting power source. The control system has a safety mechanism to insure that the nozzle and electrode are in place before cutting or gouging. The PRO-CUT 25 initiates the plasma arc with a simple, yet reliable, touch start mechanism. This system eliminates many of the prob- lems associated with hi-frequency type start systems.

INPUT LINE VOLTAGE, AND AUXILIARY TRANSFORMER

The single-phase input power of 115 230 Volts AC is connected to the machine, via an input cord, to a switch located on the front panel.

The PRO-CUT 25 Input voltage board automatically reconnects the auxiliary and inverter connections to configure the machine for either a low 115V AC or high 230V AC input voltage. The auxiliary transformer develops the appropriate AC voltages to operate the cooling fan, the control board, and the inverter board.
