MAINTENANCE

 

1.  A great care should be taken to the cutting torch. The molten material 

sprays while cutting. This sputter contaminates the interior space of the 
torch. The worn parts (consumables) of  a plasma torch should be regularly 
maintained and timely exchanged. Regularly check the condition of diffuser 
channels (see diagram of the torch). If contaminated, you must clean it with 
a pressure air or to replace the diffuser. Poor state of the diffuser has a 
negative impact on the quality of cutting and causes very strong interference 
that may cause the collapse of the machine control electronics or influence 
the surrounding devices. If the cable bundle of the torch is worn out it must 
be replaced immediately - danger of electrical shock.   

2.  Disconnect the PEGAS from the mains supply voltage before 

disassembling. 

3.  Maintaining the pneumatic system consists of regular draining  of the 

condensate traps, at least once a day. Furthermore, visually check the level 
of pollution of the air filter and if necessary, disassemble and cleaned the 
filter.

 

4.  Setting the operating pressure - while cutting the pressure must not fall 

below 0.35 MPa. Setpoint is carried out by the control head on the pressure 
regulator. Head must first be unlocked by pulling upward, to set the desired 
pressure and pushing again downwards to secure. If the machine does not 
consume any air, a slight increase in pressure (about 0,05MPa) appears. It 
is therefore necessary to check the pressure during cutting. 

5.  The power generator must be periodically cleaned by compressed air 

(according to the degree of dust inside the generator). 
NOTE:  Beware of the risk of damage to the electronic components by direct 
action of compressed air from a small distance. 

6.  Troubleshooting and repairing of PEGAS equipment should only be carried 

out only by suitably qualified or competent person. 

7. 

A ‘competent person’ must be a person who has acquired through training, 
qualification or experience, or a combination of them, the knowledge and
