Detailed technical data relative to the performance of the machine is located on the back panel plate.
Please note
that the ratings plate shown below is an
example only intended to assist with the explanations of symbols. To determine the correct technical values of the machine in your possession, you must
refer to the data plate.
1
The EUROPEAN standard relating to safety and the
construction of plasma cutting machines.
2
Symbol of the main internal parts of the cutter : i.e.
frequency converter (inverter) - transformer - rectifier.
3
Symbol for the cutting current characteristic :
drooping characteristic = constant current.
4
Symbol of plasma cutting procedure.
5
Mains symbol : AC - single-phase supply.
6
Thermal class of insulation material: H=180C.
7
Cooling method: AF forced air (fan).
8
Case protection grade: IP22. Standard governing the
required protection from water ingress and isolation
of internal parts from persons and objects.

PERFORMANCE OF THE PLASMA CUTTER CIRCUIT:
UO
:
Maximum voltage with no-load peak (welding circuit open)
12/U2
:
Current and corresponding voltage are normal [ U2=(20+0.0412) V ]
and may be supplied from the machine during cutting.
X
:
Intermittent cutting ratio: Indicates time during which machine can
supply the corresponding current (same column). This is expressed
in % on the basis of a 10min. cycle (e.g. 60% = 6 min of work, 4 min.
break and so on).
A/V-A/V
: Indicates the regulation range of the cutting current (maximum -
minimum) at the corresponding arc voltage.
