6.2 Connecting the plasma-cutting torch
6.3 Connecting the coolant
NOTICE
• Make sure that the connections are properly assigned and tightened.
• Since the plasma nozzle cannot be protected against direct contact for
technical reasons, the plasma cutting power source must fulfil the
requirements of EN 60974-7, point 7.4.2.
• The plasma-cutting torch in connection with the plasma power source
must conform to EN 60974-10.
• The plasma power source must also conform to EN 60974-1.
• The plasma power source and cutting torch must have the same type of
ignition (contact or HF) and the same output power (rated current and
corresponding duty cycle).

WARNING
Risk of burns
If the coolant level is too low, the plasma-cutting torches will overheat.
• Wear protective gloves.
• Check the coolant level at regular intervals.
NOTICE
• Ensure that the coolant supply and return hoses have been correctly
installed. Coolant supply = blue, coolant return = red.
• Do not use deionised or demineralised water as coolant or for leak and
flow tests. This may shorten your welding torch’s service life.
• For liquid-cooled welding torches, we recommend using
ABICOR BINZEL
BTC coolant.
