PRESTOJET 45 – cut 

After pressing the button in the torch: 

  Preflow – purge flow before ignition of the pilot current 

– 2s (unalterable). 

  Pilot current – maximum 3s, if it does not touch the 

material or the button in the torch is released, the pilot 
current will automatically turn off.  

  Cutting current – proper cutting – lasts as long as the 

button in the torch is pressed. 

  Postflow – gas flow after cutting – time depends on 

the current – see Table 3.

  Grid time – sustaining the pilot current, possible only 

the button in torch is pressed. Enables the transition 
between the materials to be cut. Adjustment range: 
1 – 5s. 

  Postflow – gas flow after cutting – time depends on 

the current – see Table 3.

PRESTOJET 45 – gouging 

After pressing the button in the torch: 

  Preflow – purge flow before ignition of the pilot current 

– 2s (unalterable). 

  Pilot current – maximum 3s, if it does not touch the

  Gouging current – lasts as long as the button in the 

torch is pressed. 

  Pilot – sustaining the pilot current (grid process). Is 

only possible when the button in torch is pressed. 

  Postflow – gas flow after gouging – 15s (unalterable).
