Input current values given in this table are at maximum output power (40kW) 200 amps at 200VDC. Dedicated power line may be necessary. esp-200 is equipped with line voltage compensation but to avoid impaired performance due to an overloaded circuit, a dedicated power line may be required. notICe note !!! 380/415V Ce Mains supply requirements: High power equipment may, due to the primary current drawn from the mains supply, influence the pow- er quality of the grid. Therefore connection restrictions or requirements regarding the maximum permis- sible mains impedance or the required minimum supply capacity at the interface point to the public grid may apply for some types of equipment (see technical data). In this case it is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation with the distribution network operator if necessary, that the equipment may be connected.

3.4.2 primary power hookup procedure

The following procedure explains the proper in- stallation steps for connecting primary electrical power to the plasma console. NOTE: Safety codes specify the power ground wire be the last connection to break should the cable be pulled out of the unit. When preparing the cable for connection, make the ground wire 6 inches (152mm) longer than the three primary wires. 1. Ensure input power cable is disconnected from all electrical sources. 2. Remove right side panel (as viewed from front of console). 3. Route input power cable through the strain relief located at the rear panel. 4. Pull input power cable through the strain relief to allow cable wires sufficient length to con- nect to main contactor. Tighten strain relief to ensure input power cable is secured. 5. Connect input power cable ground wire to the ground lug provided above TB2 (7 position terminal block). 6. Connect three power leads of input power cable to terminals located atop the main contactor. Secure the leads by tightening each screw. 7. Connect jumper power cables from bottom of the main contactor to proper input voltage marked on auto transformer. Unit is factory set for 575V as shown at the left. 8. Connect jumper on TB2 to proper input volt- age. This 7 position terminal block jumper is factory set to 575V. 9. Connect input conductors to line (wall) dis- connect. 10.

Pendant has a three position switch: Position CUT – Temporarily allows cut gas to flow to preset pressure before operation. Cut gas pressure is displayed on the top digital meter. Position START/SHIELD – Temporarily allows start and shield gases to flow before op- eration. Start gas pressure is displayed on the top digital meter. Shield gas is displayed on the bottom digital meter. Position OPERATE – This is default position (Spring tension returns toggle to this posi- tion). Switch will return to this position without assistance when released. This middle switch position allows console to be in cutting mode (not setup). The Remote Setup Panel is an option for Avenger 1 CNC cutting machines and larger. It is substituted for the pendant and oper- ates the same with addition of a regulator for cut oxygen and nitrogen. Refer to your cutting machine manual for details.

1. Apply power by closing the line (wall) switch. Main power light

will not illuminate until console power switch is turned ON. Fault light should flash and go out. 2. Select the Panel/Remote setting. If current is controlled from cutting machine CNC, place switch to Remote position. Consult cutting machine instructions for current setting. If current is not controlled by the CNC, select Panel and set current on output current dial. 3. Check coolant level. Level must be checked with console main power in OFF position. Coolant level must fall in the safe operat- ing level. 4. Set pilot arc High/Low switch. (Refer to cutting process data of the torch manual.) 5. Turn on console power by placing power switch in ON position. White light to left of the switch will illuminate. 6. Check coolant pressure. The pressure is factory set between 80 to 90 PSI (5.5 –6.2 bars). 7. Begin plasma cutting operation. This may include manually set- ting other options, depending on total plasma package. If using panel mode, after cutting has begun, adjust current to de- sired amount. Check for a fault light. If a fault light illuminates, SHUT OFF POWER IMMEDIATELY and refer to troubleshooting section. 4.3 sequence of operation HIGH LOW PILOT ARC PANEL REMOTE Apply Power OFF 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 CURRENT Coolant Level ON V POWER OFF PSI Coolant Begin Cutting

Bottom Dross and Top Spatter 2. Bevel Angle 3. Surface Roughness These characteristics vary by many factors including the type and condition of plate material of which there is little control such as; plate chemistry •� coatings •� scale •� The Condition Selection Charts express the cut quality obtained in laboratory tests with a variety of materials. The informa- tion in the charts is based on the following terminology. Excellent - Essentially dross free with no top spatter. •� Good - Very light removable dross, or dross free with top spatter. •� Fair - Medium to heavy removable dross. •� Poor - Tenacious dross •� 4.4.1.2 Bevel angle: A slight bevel is characteristic of plasma cutting. The objective in the selection chart is to establish conditions that cause the least angle. Bevel angle ratings in the chart are identified as; 1 for the least angle, 2 for second best and 3 for third rate, etc. When more than one set conditions produce the same bevel angle they are given the same rating. It is possible to have four conditions with a “1” rating, one with a “2”, and two with a “3”. Bevel angle ratings are relative for particular material and thickness, they are not absolute; a “3” on 1 inch (25.4mm) material may have less bevel than a “1” on 1/4 inch (6.4mm) material.

high Frequency Interference Can Damage Machine electronic Com- ponents potentially damaging high frequency interference may result from increasing the spark gap beyond recommendation. this electrical in- terference may find its way to pc boards in the electronics cabinet or Vision control. the result can be failure of some portion of machine function. It is not recommended setting the spark gap beyond a distance of 0.040” (1,0 mm) CautIon Spark gap controls the amount of starting current (high frequency) sent to the torch. There is a direct relationship between spark gap and starting reliability/electrode life. Spark gap should be set at 0.040 inches (1 mm). Characteristics of spark gap below 0.040 inches (1 mm); Negative Effect - Starting reliability is decrease. •� Positive Effect – Reduced risk of high frequency interference and improved electrode life. •� Characteristics of spark gap above 0.040 inches (1 mm); Negative Effect – increased risk of high frequency damage and reduced electrode life. •� Positive Effect – Starting reliability is increased (until approximately 0.056 inch (1,4 mm) when the gap •� becomes too wide, resulting in no spark).

torch and Cut quality

note: This is offered as a general guide. Refer to your torch manual for specifics on your equipment Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action Reduced Electrode Life 1) Skeleton cutting 2) Height control problems. 3) Piercing standoff too low. 4) Starting on edges with continuous pilot arc. 5) Gas pressures too high or low. 6) Coolant flow below 3/4 GPM (0.5 l/ sec). 7) Gas or water leaks in torch 1) Cutting skeletons to facilitate their Removal from the table can ad- versely affect electrode life by: a) Causing the torch to run off the work. b) Continuous pilot arc edge starts. c) Greatly increasing the frequency of starts. This is mainly a problem for O2 cutting and can be alleviated by choosing a path with a minimum number of starts. d) Increased likelihood that the plate will spring up against the nozzle causing double arc. Careful atten- tion by the operator, increasing standoff and reducing cutting speeds will help mitigate these conditions. If the machine is equipped with a gas torch, it may be more practical to use it for skeleton cutting. 2) See crashing/diving in item 6. 3) Increase piercing standoff 4) Position torch more carefully or use waste plate to start on. 5) Make appropriate adjustment 6) Check coolant level and flow 7) See torch manual

Reduced Electrode Life

1) Diving 2) Work flipping 3) Catching on piece 4) Excessive speed 5) Excessive pilot arc on time 6) Process factors 7) Inadequate initial delay. Pierce not com- plete before starting 1). Diving is usually caused by a change in arc voltage when an automatic height control is in use. Diving can result in damage to the nozzle. Usu- ally, the voltage change is the result of a change of direction or speed to negotiate a corner, failure to disable the height control during piercing, or of plate falling away from the arc. These problems can be dealt with by disabling the height control in such situations and by extinguishing the arc earlier when finishing the cut on falling plate. Diving may also be caused by a problem with the height control or signals fed to it. 2). The nozzle may sometimes be dam- aged if the torch hits a flipped up part. This is difficult to avoid entirely but careful part programming can minimize the problem. 3). This refers to crashes or nozzle dam- age caused by the front end of the torch catching on top spatter after a pierce. Hold the torch at a higher standoff for a longer lead-in to avoid this problem. 4). Reduce speed to prevent rooster tailing during cut. Reduce speed on corners if rooster tailing occurs only when coming out of corners. 5). Check the following: a). When the torch is properly posi- tioned, it should start on the first pop. b). The pilot arc contactor should open as soon as the arc trans- fers. c). Pilot Arc switch in wrong posi- tion. d). Gas or water leak in torch. 6). Same as for electrode. 7). Increase delay time.

Poor Cut Quality

Refer to your torch manual for more details. 1. Gas selection 2. Torch alignment to work 3. Incorrect current 4. Cutting over slats 5. Cutting machine or torch vibrates 6. Bevel angle 7. Wrong travel direction (good angle on scrap side). 8. Plate shifting while being cut. 9. Slag buildup on cutting table. 10. Wrong gas settings. 11. Gas or water leak in torch. 1. Refer to gas selection section. 2. Verify and correct torch alignment (verti- cally). 3. Verify current value. Refer to parameter tables. 4. Cutting over slats will cause some bot- tom dross. If the cut runs along the slat, it can produce other cut quality problems. The only solution is to try to avoid run- ning along the slats. 5. Make sure bracket and height control is rigid and properly adjusted. 6. Standoff and speed have considerable effect on bevel angle. 7. With standard swirl the squarest side is on the right side of the direction of travel. 8. Small, thin, or lightweight plates can shift while cutting. Clamp them down. 9. Clean slag from cutting table. 10. Check gas chart and adjust for proper settings. 11. Check torch manual. No PreFlow 1. No start signal. 2. Emergency stop signal open 3. Shorted, closed, or jumpered out CWFS. 4. No Coolant flow. 5. N2 pressure switch not activated. 1. Check input. Verify a start command has been given. 2. Check for continuity between TB3-18 and TB3-19. 3. Check coolant LED on front panel. Should be lit. 4 Check reservoir. Add coolant until full. 5. Check switch for flow. Pressure too low.

Lower start gas flow. 2. a). Pump pressure too low, should be 90 - 100 psig. b). Faulty coolant flow switch. c). Obstruction in torch limiting coolant flow. 3. Service torch as outlined in the torch manual. 4. Trouble shoot signal path. 5. Check for proper pressure and flow. 6. Run through all setup procedures. 1. Lower arc voltage in small (5 Volt) increments. 2. If cutting speed is too fast, decrease speed. 3. a). Wrong nozzle being used. b). Lower current into correct operating range. 1. Raise the arc voltage in small incre- ments (5 Volts). 2. Simply increase speed. 3. Change to a higher current nozzle.
