Plasma welding
5.9.1
Welding torch connection (with gas metering unit GMU)
If the plasma and shielding gases are connected via a gas metering unit (GMU), the connection
between the welding machine and the GMU is created using the supplied gas connection lines
with G 1/4" crown nuts connected on both sides.
The GMU can be used for plasma or TIG welding.
Adapters for connecting the welding torch gas connections are screwed onto the GMU where
appropriate.
Before commissioning, the plasma welding torch must be equipped for the welding JOB and
correspondingly set/adjusted!
