Setup, Operation & Connections
Once unpacked please take a moment to identify the various inputs, outputs and controls
on your new PlasmaPart system – key to its operation are:
Mains Input
In this case a 32A 415V plug is pre-wired to your machine,
if you connect your machine to an extension lead ensure that the conductor size is
adequate for the length of lead and current draw of the machine, in this case at least
6mm
2
should be used. If you are in any doubt please consult a qualified electrician.
Always protect yourself and others by using your machine with an appropriately
sized RCD or residual current device.
Compressed air supply
Your new PlasmaPart system is equipped with a PCL type quick air connection. Once
you have attached your regulator to the rear of the machine and tightened the air
supply pipe clamp, plug the connection into your airline.
The regulator should be set
to 100PSI / 6 Bar when the air is flowing through the torch with the trigger pressed
(only depress the trigger briefly to check and do so pointing away from you).
The air supply should be dry (compressor tank blown down regularly) and free from
oil and contamination such as dirt particles. You may use compressed air bottles
instead of an airline and compressor, these should be fitted with appropriate high
pressure regulators to drop the output pressure to no higher than 116PSI before
connecting to the input of your PlasmaPart system’s regulator.
All air supply lines should be at least 6mm (1/4”) inside diameter and of suitable
material to safely operate at your airlines pressure – we can supply airlines if
required, please contact us.
